    Wisconsin > Madison: That BBQ Joint

    A relatively new joint opened recently on Willamson street. Truely awesome ribs. Tied with Pappy's in St Louis for the best restaurant ribs I have ever eaten. I eat here about twice a month. Brisket is decent, pulled pork very good, ribs and hush puppies outstanding. Sides are decent to very...

    Kool-Aid Pickles

    I have seen several recipes for the red Kool-aid pickles. Alton Bron will have them on his next Feastig episode. I have seen several recipes for them and would like to try them for an upcoming picnic. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

    BBQ definition and meaning

    About a year ago I hunted high and low and found a copy of your book in great condition and it has become one of my treasured reads. I am teaching a 2 day community college class on BBQ and would like your thoughts on how to summarize what BBQ is to people who probably have not eaten an a BBQ...
