The Other White Meat?

Today, I came across something that I absolutely must try, being a fan of bacon, sausage, and all meats porcine. It’s called the Bacon Explosion, which requires the following ingredients:
2 pounds thick cut bacon
2 pounds Italian sausage
1 jar of your favorite barbeque sauce
1 jar of your favorite barbeque rub
You weave half the bacon into a [...]

Goobers

I previously documented how much I enjoyed great salted in the shell peanuts from The Good Earth Peanut Company, of Skippers VA. It has been a while since we’d had any good goobers, so I placed an order at TGEPC’s online store last week. On Friday, they arrived, two 5-pound bags of salted-in-the-shell [...]

Olympic Duck Confusion

Am I now supposed to order Beijing roast duck, as opposed to Peking roast duck?
If I ever develop a taste for duck, I need to know these things. I’d hate to be culinarily embarrassed.

The Pigman has Landed

My coworker having safely arrived back in NoVa from his vacation, which by now, given where we work, is just a memory, I took delivery on the 6-pack of Pigman’s sauce that he was kind enough to bring back for me.
No Boston Butt or other good hunk of pork is safe now. Condiments are just [...]

Mule

I have a co-worker who has spent the last couple of weeks vacationing in the Outer Banks(NC). While it’s good to escape the zoo our workplace has become, I’m looking forward to seeing him again on Monday.
He’s bringing me some sauce from the Pigman. We ordered a few bottles by phone recently, but with the [...]

Derby Day

As we prepare for this year’s Run for the Roses, my little bride and I are getting together the fixin’s for an appropriate beverage. That would be a mint julep. When I was in college, my roommate always said we should have juleps on Derby Day; we never got around to that.
I’ve told [...]

The Pigman’s Real Name is Richard

And via mail-o-gram, the Pigman responds:
Hi Ken,
Please call us during the hours 11am-8pm, Monday-Sunday. We are still
working on our online store. However, we would love to take care of your
order via phone in the interim. Thank you for your email, and we hope to
hear from you soon!
Best,
Richard Bruce
Owner
Pigman’s Bar-B-Que
I’ll be on the phone [...]

Pigman, Open that Store!

Well, it’s happened again; we’re out of Pigman’s Sauce. A coworker brought me in a bottle, and when that’s gone, it’s gone. The Pigman has been redoing his website; thus far, there’s no Store tab. I used the website contact form to make this plaintive request:
I’m out of sauce for the first time [...]

Support Fora

For heaven’s sake, please title your support plea in a manner that suggests the nature of your problem. Hint : titles such as “URGENT upgrade issue”, “____ is broken”, “HELP”, don’t cut it.
While I’m at it, replies to fora posts that are something like “same thing happened to me” aren’t helpful either. I [...]

Pork Fat Rules

Chicken Fried Bacon

Two observations:

The adjective svelte doesn’t apply to more than a few of the restaurant’s customers.
If I’m ever in Snook TX, I’m gonna try it out.
