BBQ - A Lifestyle

If you walk into my back yard on a weekend afternoon, there's a good chance you'll smell BBQ. Much to my wife's dissaproval, I BBQ damn near every weekend. BBQ is more than just food to me. It's a way of life. Literally, every plate of BBQ I've ever had has been over good conversation. Maybe it's the smoke flavor of the meat. Maybe it's the sauce. But something about BBQ yields friendship. BBQ is truly heart warming. I am by no means a wealthy man. Actually, I can barely afford the meat that I do cook but I refuse to pull anything off the pit and not have a guest over to serve it to. BBQ is made to be shared. There is nothing more fufilling than enjoying the company of family and friends over a plate of sliced brisket. Perhaps that is what the world needs more of. More BBQ. More friendship.
