BBQ & smoked meats - home and away

Start with 150 lbs. of green pig-nut hickory. Add 60 lbs of meat, a case of beer and a lovely fall day. That's the start of good BBQ.  

This is not yer namby-pamby-let's-get-out-the-Weber-dear BBQ. This is serious ten-hour, case-o-beer meat smoking. Me and my neighbor Jim smoked a little meat this weekend. Took a case of beer to get it done just right. Yum!










This weekend was Roots-and-Blues BBQ festival in Columbia. Pretty good BBQ (not as good as above), but a lot of interesting faces there.

 Transportation, living quarters, meat smoker and beer coolers - It's a guy thing!


The 'blues' part.


And, plenty of food.
