Somewhat Strange Question...

[Wade Leishman]

Are there issues with eating smoked meat while pregnant? I am talking mostly about Pork Shoulder or Beef Brisket, etc, no Seafood ("If it swims, I don't eat it")...

I didn't know if there are chemicals in the charcoal or wood that could possibly be harmful to the baby...

Thanks in Advance!

I have a very healthy 2 1/2 yr. old grandson whose Mom thrived on it during her pregnancy. However, if I were you and had any questions, I would check with my OB. My guess is he'll say, "maybe I should sample some before Mom tries it"
