First entrée (get it?)

Here is my first entry on Beth's Culinary Adventures.

I am very excited about this one.

BLACK'S BARBECUE

I was watching the travel channel when they were showing a special on The Best Barbecue in America. Of course they spent quite a bit of time visiting old family run Barbecue establishments in Texas since that is one of the best places to get the stuff.

The real thing!

Non of that thick, sticky, sweet, red stuff.

I was fascinated watching the preparation of the beef brisket and I was intrigued by the homemade sausage they also served.

When they interviewed the regulars that visited this one place called Black's Barbecue in Lockheart Texas, and when I saw the proprietors and how serious they were about this business, I found myself captivated and extremely curious.

Now, I do not know about the rest of the world but when I am curious about something I go straight to my computer and Google it.

The old time family barbecue house did have a web site and you could even order their Barbecue on line. Never having been to Texas and having no plans in the near future to visit there, I figured "What the Heck! Lets give this stuff a try."

Impulsively (I do some of my best work this way), and disregarding the excessive shipping cost, I forged ahead and placed an order for the beef brisket, hand made sausage, pork ribs, and a bottle of the Black's Barbecue sauce, their family recipe.

I am expecting it to arrive tomorrow and I will write a follow-up report. Oh boy!
