KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- According to Knoxville firefighters, a woman melted her tub after she tried to barbecue a brisket in it. Investigators said water from the tub poured on the neighbors below.

According to Knoxville Fire Department Captian DJ Corcoran, the fire happened at an apartment on 4834 Scheel Road.

Corcoran said when firefighters got there, they found a middle aged woman fanning light smoke from her apartment. She told fire crews there was a fire in the bathroom.

Corcoran said the woman tried to cook a brisket in her fiberglass bathtub. She had an open flame in the bottom of the tub with a wire rack resting on the upper edges. The meat was resting on top of the wire rack.

Firefighters used the shower head to extinguish the melting fiberglass. No one was hurt. The apartment below suffered minimal water damage.
