Get 3 sheets of strong heavy duty foil. Lay down 2 sheets, lay on some strips of Bacon, lay on the final sheet. Wrap around the exhaust down pipe (making sure the fat drips don't run on the exhaust the elbow at the bottom works best for me) drive for - 10-20 minutes depending on engine temperature and hey presto - when you park at work, whip out some bread and enjoy a nice hot enviro friendly hot bacon sandwich.

Don't get carried away - lamb shanks and a Turkey takes too long.
 
I'm sure you could cook an egg - a sort of dry roasted (boiled) egg - attach to your manifold for 4 minutes if you like it runny. Crack shell then eat with a spoon!
 
This brings back memories!

We used to have 27-litre V12 petrol engines in some of the military AFV's even until recently.
These engines were actually developed from the RR Merlin engine but were adapted for use by the Rover Car company (without supercharging and rated at 645hp) for the British Military initially towards the end of WW2 and were able to run on Combat Gas (low octane rating).

The exhaust manifolds cooked many a tank crews breakfast!
