Saturday, for the first time ever, I paid a visit to Stanley's Famous Pit Barbecue in Tyler, TX. I'd eaten their food before but had never been to the restaurant. Pics from the meal to come, but, first, pics with my buddies Nick Pencis (owner) & Jonathan Show (Pitmaster). Talk about guys who work hard at what they do. It had been far too long since I'd seen them, so it was awesome to catch up a bit.

Pulled-pork dinner
A few nights ago, a college and friend spent the day smoking pork and invited us over for dinner. Pulled pork, potato salad, mashed potatoes (with cheese), and baked beans. He also whipped up a vinegar-based sauce. I keep good company!
