Don't really know if this is in the right place, but click the link below to read/listen to a great essay about BBQ.

All I have to say is AMEN Brother.

My favorite line: “Skinny people can eat barbecue, and do, but the kitchen should cook for a fat man who hasn't eaten since breakfast."

Thanks, Rusty. Good reading! Quote: "..if you don't get sauce under your nails when you're eating, you're doing it wrong. I believe that if you don't ruin your shirt, you're not trying hard enough."

This reminds me of the time I had about 6 people over for ribs. After digging in, I noticed that everyone but me was using a knife and fork on their ribs. It so traumatized me that I'll never forget it!

When I read this I thought of that Kevin Costner speech about baseball in Bull Durham. Great passion!
