To Southerners, BBQ is an obsession, we're born with it : )
No it's not! And on that note, I've got to go change the marinade on the ribs. Marinade and then a dry rub. That's the secret....;>)

That is so true. Actually I thik I was nearly a teenager before I ever even had a hamburger. I grew up in a tiny little town in Virginia. We didn't even have our own cop, but we had 3 places you could go for barbeque. Can't say I've ever had better than this one little place we used to go. You could get your barbeque (pork of course, for those who don't know) either minced or sliced, with or without slaw, on a lightly grilled bun with a mustard based sauce. On the side were home made fries and of course sweet tea or a coke to drink. And for desert, peach ice cream. This was our weekly supper outing. And they sold comic books. None of this weird stuff like is around now, but the good old fashioned kids comics like Nancy and Sluggo and Casper and Wendy. I'd always get to buy a comic book to read with my meal. *Sigh* Now I'm hungry!
