Barbeque Magic

One of the really cool things about barbeque is that it will get you invited to into bars. Yes...invited to bars.

Of course, you have to bring a smoker and make a ton of ribs and chicken, but fact remains that a bar has asked you to come and party with them. For some of us, we are more accustomed to being asked to leave a bar than being asked to enter a bar, but that's another discussion all together.

Yesterday, we opened up the summer with a barbeque at KC's Korner in South Plainfield. They asked us to come and barbeque for them at Rootsfest. Rootsfest is a celebration of some sort and KC's, in conjunction with LNO Music, put together a whole day of music. Not lame ass suburban kids trying to be Alice Cooper and Lou Reed, but real Jersey rock.

After firing up the smoker at about 9:30, we barbequed 80 lbs of ribs, and 40 lbs. of chicken while rocking to The Doughboys covering the Moody Blues and the Stones. These guys are vintage rockers from the 60's and they play rock the way it is supposed to be played. They were on sometime in the mid afternoon.

Once again, today is the morning after the night before, and soon, I'll pack up the smoker and head to the soccer fields. We've been asked to barbeque for the soccer club.

The road goes on forever, and the party never ends.
