Well, it may be different with peeople, but the people I’ve known who committed suicide were simply sad. Often confused, frequently disconnected from reality, but mostly just sad.
Yeah, Massachusetts is well known for its tradtion of fine Southern cooking.
Actually, this place is quite good. But good luck finding parking.
Over here ‘BBQ’ tends to mean ‘charred to a carcinogenic crisp over hot coals’ if you’re lucky and 'blackened but still raw on the inside" if you’re unlucky. A handful of people who pay attention can flame-grill stuff properly - I thought this was the way things were done.
Then I popped into the Arkansas Cafe for lunch one Sunday, and got served half a kilo of brisket on a paper plate with a plastic fork, which I could cut the meat with. :eek: Cooked for seven hours and served with 3 varieties of home-made chili sauce :eek:
Why the hell is it yanks over here always seem to be extolling the virtues of Oreos, Cheesecake Factory, steakhouses and the like when they should be spreading the gospel of BBQ?? :mad:
When come back, bring BBQ, not goddamn pie. Unless its BBQ pie.
Wait, wait, wait if we’re really going to have Texas type fun we need to add in our horses and our guns. Get it right man! I’ll loan you a horse if you need one, but it’ll have an English saddle. Sorry. 
So if you’re not listening to RATM, maybe Filter’s Hey Man Nice Gun? :rolleyes:
I was thinking that, too- if every Texan who opposes the death penalty immolates him- or herself in Austin, who’s left to vote?
There were some Americans who immolated themselves in protest of the Vietnam War. That didn’t stop the Vietnam War, or at least it didn’t for at least five years (the last American to immolate himself in protest of the war did it in 1970). What makes you think it would be any more likely to stop the death penalty?
Talk about posts that make no sense… 
Proper BBQ is whatever is being served to me by someone who knows what they are doing. I like it all. Even South Carolina BBQ, which involves mustard and roadkill.
bdgr, I hereby challenge you to a Brisket Cookoff. If we ever meet, I’ll show you what I can do with a smoker and a packer cut piece of beef.
Suicide by immolation is not noble.
Suicide by slow cooking over a pit, with a nice dry rub and a smoky but not too sweet sauce? That’s some tasty noble!
Hey, me too… and I lived in Texas for most of life. Chili without beans is a condiment- chili with beans is a meal. Add some Fritos, chopped white onions, and some shredded cheddar, and I don’t know when to stop eating.
As for barbecue, not all Texas BBQ is slathered in tomato sauce. The two best places I’ve found are Meuller’s, in Taylor, and Cooper’s, in Llano. Meuller’s has the best ribs and brisket I’ve ever had, while Cooper’s has an amazing smoked sirloin that has to be tasted to be believed. The Salt Lick, on the other hand, has the best damn barbecue sauce I’ve found… and the ambience is really, really nice- and worth the drive from Austin.
Oh, and the OP is an idiot.
Will do.
I’ll take a piece of that action. I’ve been cooking brisket (and ribs) for years and have never slathered any tomato anything on my BBQ. Gots me a few trophies for my troubles, too.
I use zensters rib recipie and bbq sauce. No tomatoes in that.
As someone who still has the right to vote in Texas, let me chime in by saying that the OP is painfully stupid.
OK, that’s it, you rat bastard. This means war! If you ever step foot in this state, I’ll have them pick you up on “abuse-of-barbecue” charges! Which is, of course, a hanging offense. I mean, come on, it’s so obvious!
Sweet Zombie Jesus, I may be ill.
Nah, that’s not evil. Just stupid … sigh.
But hey! What about those Mavericks!!!
Oh, and Acqua Minerale … nah, never mind, not worth it.
What for? Sounds like North Carolina barbecue to me. Good stuff.
I’m going to make a note of those. Last time we were in San Antonio, we made time for a trip to Lockhart and a pilgrimage to both Smittys and Black’s.
Pork, beef, lamb, goat…it’s all good. In the words of a PitMaster, “If it will fit in the pit, we will BBQ it.”
This is actually the most pathetic, stupid, and ignorant statement I’ve ever read in my entire life. Even Chick Tracts have a better basis in reality.
Congratulations, you made my entire brain reset.
Well, bless his heart. He can’t help it if he’s jes plain stoopit.
Having lived in Texas for a bit, I know that the second sentence is totally redundant
Now this sounds like something you folks should be working on. Think about it: It could be the UK’s claim to fame in the BBQ world. I think I’m starting to drool already.
By the way, in my extensive travels on this continent I have found that all real BBQ is delicious, and Kansas City’s is OK, too.
Norman Morrison. If you’re going to hold him up as an example of how people should act, it’s helpful to at least know his name.
And how many people in Illinois immolated themselves in protest of the death penalty? It’s the sort of thing that I’d expect to hear about, if it were happening.
