Description
The roots of Bustin' Loose BBQ can likely be traced way back to the mid 1960's, but I wasn't aware of it at the time. My intention is to turn my love
and appreciation for barbecue away from the normal hotdog, hamburger and steak routine on the grill and to bust loose toward a new level of outdoor cookery, which turned out to be smoked food with wood and charcoal I had a familiarity with smoked food that led back to when I was 10 or 11 years old. Every Saturday my parents would go grocery shopping and return with a large batch of smoked kippers. For those not familiar with them, smoked kippers
are a traditional Scottish fish item. Anyway, I was a fanatic for the smell and taste of all smoked foods even at that age, and the kippers especially, would just fill the house with a wonderful, heady smoke aroma when we cooked them up. This weekend love affair with the smoked kippers went on for a number of years until the time when I foolishly pigged out on 6 whole fish and, in the aftermath, virtually destroyed my taste for smoked foods for a long, long time. When I finally was able to muster up the urge to try smoked foods again, it all came back to me. My aversion to smoked foods was over, but I did learn a very important lesson about cooking and eating, a lesson that I have never forgotten - enjoy in moderation.
