Summer BBQ

In a previous post I told you about my recent travels in Eastern Pennsylvania. I was at the Twistee Treat and asked the young girl that worked there what cool places were around to get lunch. She was frazzled and suggested Panera. Really? That's what you suggest a visitor from out of town goes to get lunch? Obviously that didn't happen. I ended up driving by an awesome place called Phamous Phils. Seriously. the. best. BBQ. ever. They had two BBQ Spits outside as we drove by. Their menu included BBQ Pulled Pork (my pick), BBQ Pulled Chicken (My friends pick), Brisket, Ribs...etc. Check out their menu. They also make their own sweet BBQ sauce that I drenched all over the Pulled Pork. I didn't even end up eating the bun because the meat was so good!! It was an awesome hole in the wall and there were tons of families coming in there getting catering for their picnics. Here are some pictures of the place:






If you're also in the mood for BBQ but don't want to cook it....OR if you want your man to smell like BBQ, check out this new BBQ scented cologne. I'm being completely sarcastic about this being anything I want my man smelling like, but unfortunately the cologne is no joke. Check out this article from UrbanDaddy.

Hey, Smokey
Smelling Like BBQ All the Time

UD - QueWe couldn’t help but notice: you’ve taken on the aroma of charcoal, with some underlying notes of brown sugar and the faintest soupçon of cayenne pepper. (Frankly, it’s intoxicating.)

We think your weekly Texas vs. Memphis BBQ challenges are to blame.

Then again, it could just be your cologne.

Introducing the biggest thing to hit the fragrance market since sandalwood: Que, the new BBQ-inspired scent from the guys behind Pork Barrel BBQ, available now.

Consider this the cleaner alternative to rubbing smoked ribs on your neck (which, for the record, also works). And it’s also got a pedigree: these former Hill staffers have won awards for their sauce and pretty soon they’ll open their own BBQ palace in Del Ray.

But for now, they’ll just tease your olfactories (and everyone’s around you) with this small-batch cologne. Inside the bottle (and it’s a handsome one), you’ll find a distinct whiff of smoke on top as well as hints of sweetness and spice, which we’re told comprise mostly black pepper and chili powder.

They wisely left out the notes of lighter fluid.
