Good thread.
I have always wanted to visit Charles Talbert's shop. I read his posts here but rarely comment on them. The guy seems to know more than everyone else. I envision his place as one where I could drop the truck off with a check (a really big one) and come back in a few months and find it just the way I want it.
So Kevin is working on an old house. Everyone needs to do that once in their life. Some even try living in the house while they are doing it. We are blessed with a fine old home that looks to have been designed and built by the same folks who came up with the Power Wagon. But I told the Central Authority that she and the kids would have to find another place to camp if I ever got serious about rewiring and replastering.
As for barbecue vs. pork chops, that is a subject for a thread (or even forum) all its own. A good friend of mine and I used to talk of conducting a tour of the South and visiting all the barbecue joints we could find. Particularly those in run down buildings in bad neighborhoods. But well, he passed away from cancer some years ago, just shy of his 50th birthday, which kind of nixed the idea.
Some of the best pork I ever had was a Cuban recipe, which I think had lime or lemon in it. Served with fried bananas. Around here, we usually do it up with hot sausage, tomato sauce, and a few cheeses. You won't hear me say one way is better than another. It's all good.
