There was a wise man that once said “I will begin at the beginning”. to give you a brief history of myself, I would say that I have been cooking, grilling, and BBQing ever since my dad first let me play with matches. That my friend is a long time. I have cooked for family, friends and customers and have not ( to my knowledge ) killed or maimed anyone…yet. I have cooked just about everything that is edible and some that were not so edible and I have found that cooking is fun! I have also found that it is not rocket science and it is a better therapy than some couch with someone in the background going “hmmm” This blog is about those 3 things and random thoughts that go with them. Quite frankly that can include anything! Where is there a better place place to discuss the worlds problems, baseball, football, women, family, hockey ( that’s for the Yankees in the crowd ) and of course life in general than around a kitchen, outdoor grill or a BBQ party.
I have seen the conversation ,about the best way to cook, eat, and who has the best BBQ, that started fights in bars and sent the womenfolk running home to lock-up their daughters. Being a native Texan and a true gentleman of the South. I can tell you without any doubt and hesitation that TEXAS BBQ IS THE BEST!!! Now before you go running to get your guns, let me say that everyone else’s BBQ is pretty darn good too. There, that should make the rest of the world happy and more calm. I have spent the last thirty years researching this phenomenon called BBQ all over the United States and even in several country. I have eaten more BBQ than Carter has little liver pills ( ask your daddy what those are) and to be quite honest that is why the call me “Big Al” and not tiny, skinny, or some of those other silly names “get the picture” .
You will find that this blog will be chocked full of recipes, words of wisdom, and everything else that I can think of about BBQ. We may even talk politics “OMG did he say politics” yes but only as it relates to the great institution of BBQing.
