I read this thread the other day,
http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?p=3147242#post3147242
It brought up questions about finding great BBQ joints. It made me wonder if a restaurant or caterer could really afford to provide a BBQ as delicious as a home cook. Let's face it, it's not cheap to buy some of the great rub and sauce options that are out there. It would also not be cheap to baby the meat as well as the process as many of us do. I know they can produce some good BBQ but could it compete with the will to invest whatever it takes to cook for your family and freinds? I know some entrepreneurs out there will say yes they can but how can they? Profit margin "IS" and has to be mandatory as well as quality and to some degree ingredients and/or meat quality has to be sacrificed... doesn't it?
