BBQ Brethren "My California BBQ" Throwdown!

[zydecopaws]

Hypothetical question: if chopped pork with BBQ sauce were to appear on a croissant with foo-foo lettuce, would that be considered a California-style meal.

Not that I know anyone who would do something like this, no, not me...

Don't forget the organic angle.

Not a chance. However, if instead you made something like...

Delicious hand-pulled chunks of apple wood smoked roasted pork gingerly enveloped in a delectably velvety tomato-infused BBQ sauce atop delightfully cool, fresh, crisp, hand picked 100% organic California lettuce all lovingly wrapped inside a buttery, flaky, fresh baked crescent roll...

That might qualify as California cuisine, that is so long as you are able to toss out all those old inferior ingredients for the new ones and make it using the new method.

I bow to your greatness.

What is a crescent roll? Is it the same as a croissant?

Not at all. Croissants are much more refined and have at least twice as much pretentiousness as crescent rolls and croissants would normally prefer to not associate with the "working class" variety crescent roll which are sometimes even further corrupted by being stuffed with varieties of mystery meats and even processed cheese. However, sometimes those of an unenlightened nature refer to them as though they are interchangable, greatly irritating those who prefer following proper form. This picture should clear up some confusion.

Croissant


Crescent Roll

So, in light of this clarification, I think it is obvious that the aforementioned sandwich must be on a cwrrroissant (note how I slurred that 'r') and not on a crescent roll.

The last administration changed the name to Freedom Roll.

Stop the contest.....we have a farkin' winner.








Boy, I'm glad I thought of Tofurky Jurky Wishstix before Landarc did. This thing is a lock.

Deguerre is here waiting for a wrap.

My BBQ Restaurant will feature Ronald Reagan (and a smattering of some other great conservative thinkers to keep it from looking like some sort of shrine). The walls will be plastered with conservative messages, propaganda, and famous quotes. Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck might just find it too good to be true and think they have died and gone to heaven.

Everything will have meat in it, and feature real barbecue, but with a California twist, and the reason I will tell people for doing that is in order to serve the customers, who live in California. In reality however, I'm only doing it to honor Reagan's home state, and because of a Throwdown on a BBQ forum I frequent.

It should be easy to spot any liberals because they will either zoom on by, or throw things out their car window at the place. If one does happen to walk in, the sheer volume of conservatism plastered all over the place, and oozing from the regular customers will put them into an instant state of shock. While they are frozen up, we will gently carry them next door to Smoothie King.

Here is one of my featured menu items:

#1 - California MOINK Ball Wrap - $5
All great change in America begins at the dinner table. --Ronald Reagan
Four of our big, juicy, delicious 100% Beef meatballs wrapped with hickory smoked bacon and grilled to perfection with a delectably sweet and spicy glaze of smokey good BBQ sauce, all wrapped up in a bed of crisp, cool lettuce, vine ripened tomato and fresh sliced avocado, with mayonnaise and blue cheese crumbles. This wrap can tear down the walls of tyranny!

You will of course be able to view the prep area so you can see your wrap being made...























It's truly a delicious wrap, worthy of a landslide re-election. Sadly though, for some reason this restaurant does not succeed, despite a very loyal following of regular customers. It seems some local politicians did not like the atmosphere and changed the zoning laws.

[zydecopaws]

It is so unfortunate that your conservative restaurant venture didn't succeed due to ugly back-room politics, as you clearly have a great featured BBQ item. I recommend you relocate to a different area of the State, say the far northern part where there are fewer Liberals and no air quality management board to complain about the atmosphere.

[landarc]

I miss that place with all the propaganda already, that MOINK ball wrap was pretty darned good. I never could get used to the aluminum foil hats everyone wore though.

[BigButzBBQ]

After the real thing, not sure my monstrosities are worth mentioning in this contest.

[bluetang]

That's a wrap Nicely done!
