Pigs that are only fed tulips?? Wow! I'll bet that *was* good! There is ore a couple local BBQ joints that aren't wonderful, though you can get a decent carnitas around here. On the warmer, dryer days, I've been CUEing in the backyard - burgers loaded with garlic, A1, sea salt, topped with grilled red onions, pepper jack, or cheddar, and a few drops of habanero sauce, on a grilled onion bread bun.
