Ashtanga 0 #2 August 18, 2005 Giraffe BBQ that Sebazz1 had in Northern California. He took out the insides and hung the giraffe from a huge redwood tree for 2 weeks. Then we put it on a open grill with charcoal and wood and cooked it for two days. We had many a spirits and talked about lions and tigers and bears, oh my. Best BBQ I have ever had.

Excuse my naiveity here, but how the heck does one go about transporting a giraffe across continents?! Oh wait, was it already chopped up in S. Africa?

No. HH came over on a Arc. He brought two giraffes, two lions, two zebra, etc.. We only cooked the giraffe though. Clay had sex with the zebra so nobody wanted to eat it. I accidentally scratched the lions balls with a hot fork when it was sleeping and it got really mad at me so we had to put it down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

racer42 0 #9 August 18, 2005 The best BBQ is to be found in Central Texas. Mostly in Lockhart at Smittty's or Kreuz's Meat Market. No sauce, no marinades, no rubs, just 18 hours over post oak and pecan wood. You want sauce bring it. No giraffe though. But ostrich and emu are not uncommon.L.A.S.T. #24 Co-Founder Biscuit Brothers Freefly Team Electric Toaster #3 Co-Founder Team Non Sequitor Co-Founder Team Happy Sock Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #16 August 18, 2005 Texas: County Line, Green Mesquite, Salt Lick, Ironworks, Artz Rib House, Stubb's. (Did I forget any of the good ones?) There is no good bbq in any other state. Oh, and the Austin airport is really cool because you can get a big ole plate of Salt Lick bbq and a beer and listen to live local music while you wait for your plane. (Ted Roddy was playing there for my last flight.) All other airports now suck in comparison. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ashtanga 0 #17 August 18, 2005 QuoteThe Stealth Arc, the columbians loaned it to you? No. Bill Von designed it and HH tried it out the first time. The Columbians bought it from me. I needed the money. QuoteWhat side dishes go well with Giraffe? We started out with some crumpets that Skreamer brought over from the UK. They were um um good. Do you like crumpets? For side dishes we had the usual corn on the cobb and asparagus. The asparagus wasn't cooked too long and it was still kinda crunchy. That's the way I like it.
