BBQ to go... sweet!

Okay, so many of you may know that I stopped eating meat and have now gone back to being a pescetarian (as in, I only eat fish flesh, mmm)...  BUT, there was a time, not too long ago, where the Barbecue and my bikini went hand in hand.  So, as we would drink our beers and make our bacon cheeseburgers, and watch the meat smoke on the big Green Egg, we would often brainstorm about.. portable BBQ!  Unfortunately, there's an ordinance in Miami beach which doesn't allow for portable food (except for those annoying ones that sell food to the construction workers, which, apparently, doesn't count, even though my dog seems to love cleaning up the chicken bones they throw on the ground!!!!!!!  sorry... venting...)

So check out the Daily Candy blurb on a new fun place to go.. and since I"ll be home next week, I may spin by for, um, cornbread??

The Fat Man Cometh
Fat Man’s Bar-B-Que

fat cat!

If you’re craving a hot piece of meat, you should hit up a strip club in North Miami.

That’s where Fat Man’s Bar-B-Que is (parked outside the feisty Take One Cocktail Lounge).

From inside his traveling trailer, Benjamin Nelson cooks up burgers, chicken, fried conch, and grilled fish like tilapia and grouper. But the pièce de résistance is his award-winning ribs.

Using a professional smoker filled with hickory wood (rigged to the truck’s rear), he smokes and seasons the ribs to melt-in-your-mouth readiness, then smothers them in gooey homemade BBQ sauce.

The elusive Fat Man works on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, from 7:30 p.m. to 5 a.m. But if you don’t want to venture past your local Publix, he’ll drive his flashy ride to your party.

Like a high-class call girl.
