Smoked Meat?

If you are wondering what the title of this blog is all about, you should know that I am the proud owner of a Weber Smoky Mountain Cooker Smoker, and smoking meat is a hobby of mine. My love for good BBQ began at a young age, when my parents would occasionally take the family out to eat at a local establishment called Hickory Park.

It was there that I had my first real smoked beef sandwich, and the memory of that meal lingers with me still: a whole smoked beef sandwich (not a kids meal), fries, and a Cherry Coke (with a real cherry floating on top). If it's your birthday they will sing to you and give you your own Sundae. Mmmmmm....

If you are wondering about the obscure verse from Exodus, you can click here. Notice that the passover was cooked over the fire--the way a real meal should be.
