We have a bit of a local Squirrel problem inScotts Valley. We have never really done much with squirrels but maybe we need to look into it. Evidently there are some great recipes out there forBBQ Squirrel. Given the explosion of them as seen in the picture attached, maybe we need to check into it. They are a bit hard to see in this picture below, but you can see 2 families out of 50 who live on about 5 acres in Scotts Valley.

My lunch was atBuck's (which i generally avoid) today. Buck's does not have good BBQ. So I had my 19th salad in 21 days. That would also make it my 19th salad in my life time. Balsamic can make anything taste good.

My best customer story was last year when we had a recent BBQ. Nothing complex, just burgers. Okay someone got distracted and well..they were a bit burnt. As the 7 year old in attendance pointed out, these things have so much charcoal on them they are going to cause cancer.

We had a chance to eat atThe Smoke Shed not once but 3 times in early July. This has to be the best pulled pork sandwich that we have ever had. Even better thanBen's. They are just across the street from the bay and there is a great peir to sit on after you pick up your sandwich and a nice sweet tea for a comfortable lunch.

Texas Smokehouse BBQ is covered by a greatBlog Paul writes "My quest to find great BBQ brought me to San Jose last night to the Texas Smokehouse BBQ. The TSB is a true hole-in-the-wall with just 3 tables inside and a San Jose address near 101 and 680 that is not easy to find. It is worth the effort though, as the many locals getting take-out are more than happy to tell you." The picture says alot about the place...bad looking resturaunt ussually equals good BBQ

It is looking like because of all of the good weather, it is going to be pretty bust for us in May. Too Busy. We have recently gotten booked up for May with all of the graduation parties here in Scotts Valley. Well we don't want anybody to miss out on a good BBQ, so if you are looking for a May event, you should reach out toBruno's in Scotts Valley. It is a great place for real BBQ and they cater too.
