Best BBQ Guest Ever!

Ever feel this way? Ya just wanna have a BBQ but you’re too tired to coordinate all the details?

Well, at least there’s hope for us lazy grillers yet. See, I order my meat online and it just shows up at my door.

It’s like magic. Only it’s really the Internet.

Try it! At least you can check ONE thing off your list! It’s springtime, baby!

It’s Meat Week!

It’s Meat Week! It’s Meat Week! All week!

What does that mean? Why, a weeklong celebration of barbecued meats. January 27-February 3.

No, I did not make this up. Someone else beat me to it.

It’s 8 nights of BBQd meats each night. A party with meat. I think it’s no coincidence that the week culminates on Super Bowl Sunday, do you?

And what could be better?

I’ve often felt there should be some sort of official recognition of all that is right about meat. And here it is — Meat Week!

Check the Meat Week website to see if there’s an official celebration scheduled in your city. If not, start your own. It’s not hard! Just invite people to eat meat with you!

You can read all about the origins of Meat Week on the site and find out ways you can get involved. But, really, your participation through the eating of meat is what it’s all about.

Check it out and enjoy the week . . . I know I will!

Beefy Game Day

Beefy Game Day

Football fan or not, surely you’ve heard there’s a big showdown coming up.

That’s the Super Bowl on February 3rd for everyone who could care less about the pigskin.

But whether or not you like to watch the game is irrelevant – it’s the perfect time to party and EAT!

Alert your friends and start planning now so you can chow down on some fantastic foods come game day.

Some of my favorites for big crowds are brisket, ribs, burgers – anything BBQ related. They’re total crowd pleasers.

My new favorite obsession is BBQ burnt ends. Here’s what those morsels of goodness look like:

Yeah, I know. Yum.

Put toothpicks in those babies and you’ve got instant finger foods.

You can find all these delectable delights at Kansas City Steak Company. They’ll deliver all your treats right to your door!

And even better, through midnight tomorrow when you buy $125 or more you get free shipping. You just have to use code BIGDAY when you check out.

Peruse all these game day ideas and take advantage of the sales going on. You’ll be the toast of the town no matter who wins on Feb. 3rd!
