Smokin'

Hungry for some good barbeque?

I had some today.

I visited " The Big Pig Gig” in Menomonee Falls (street parking).

And yes, what we had was good.

One pork shoulder sandwich was really outstanding (Barbeque Company).

Brisket sandwich and pulled pork (on a Tennessee Taco) really good (Florida Skin and Bones).

All I have to say is, “Oink.”

One place, Florida Skin and Bones, is going to leave with a Brinks truck following them home.  If you ever wanted to test the theory of whether people will go somewhere just because there’s a line in front of a place …it’s true.  It didn’t matter if the food was good or not.  Because the place had a line…people got in it.  The place has 20 trophies out in front of it and maybe that is what attracted people there in the first place…but seriously, a line makes people believe that the food is better than the rest.  It was no better that some of the other establishments.

The bad?  Just two minor things.

Pricey…and you have to buy “tokens, ”  not tickets.  Whoever came up with that concept…making the customer carry around tokens rather than tickets…..well, duh.

And the only brand of soda is Sprecher.  No Coke or Pepsi products.  If you don’t want a beer…and aren’t in the mood for a root beer, somehow a Sprecher product doesn’t do it for you.

Holy tomatoes…the all clear has been given. 

What was thought to be bad is now good!


"As of today, FDA officials believe that consumers may now enjoy all types of fresh tomatoes available without concern of becoming infected with salmonella Saintpaul," the outbreak strain.”

Read the story from  My Way




So it is now safe to indulge in all types of tomato activity….

Dip your hot dog in homemade catsup.

Coat those ribs in homemade BBQ sauce.

Put a giant slice of beefsteak tomato on your burger.

Make your favorite pasta sauce out of Roma tomatoes.

Or…try this….




 


Two gangs fight by help of 10 tons of rotten tomatoes. 1st price is a keg of lager ...



Note:  Certain hot peppers are still on the Beware list


 

Got a Couple Bucks for a Beer?

O.K.  I guess you are going to need more than a couple of bucks to buy a bottle of this beer!

I'm  speaking of Carlsberg ASAs new Vintage No. 1 beer, which their officials say is probably the best and most expensive beer in the world.

The Danish brewer is charging $400 for each bottle (less than a pint).

Three of Copenhagen's most exclusive restaurants will sell the beer, and only 600 bottles will be made. 

Brewmaster Jens Eiken said more than 50 have already been purchased.

The brewmaster said the beer, which weighs in at about 10.5 percent alcohol, is stored in Swedish French oak casks in a special place about 50 feet below Carlsberg's old brewery.

Each bottle has a hand-stenciled label by a well-known artist and the empty bottles will be worth about $100 each.

No 10 cent deposits on these babies.
