BBQ


Fresh cut grass.One of my favorite aromas.It's right up there with the smell of wood smoke and BBQ.Just riding past a BBQ joint smelling that wood smoke is enough to make my mouth water.BBQ is an acquired taste I have heard.I acquired my taste for it in the 1960's.Melears BBQ in Union City,Ga.One of those all you can eat places.I never could get past 1 plate that was enough for me.Shredded pork BBQed to perfection,toast, Brunswick stew,sweet pickles and Wise potato chips.And those glasses of sweet tea.They where huge the size of what I can't describe.Me and Mom could not help but to giggle at the size of those glasses first time we ate there.Every time we passed Melears I had to stop.Someone told me that they had closed their doors.That's a shame a great place to eat and full of memories.
