Poor Jim.

I went to a luau just the other night in Olive Branch [Mississippi], and there was a lip smacking whole hog, several mouth watering pork shoulders, incredibly juicy ribs, with all the trimmings right down to the watermelon.

But, nary a of beef to be found.

It was wonderful. You could smell the hickory and apple wood smoke blocks away. Almost as good as one of those all night BBQ smoking sessions on my patio.

Enjoy your brisket !!
