It's that time of year again. Big Apple BBQ Festival. It was one of the first summer events I went to in June of 2007 during my internship summer. And one of the first events I truly thought, "Ok, I think I could get used to living here."
And then there was the summer of 2008 when I happened to wear my Big Bob Gibson's t-shirt to the Big Bob Gibson's BBQ tent. And I was the lucky guest who got to have my picture made with Mr. Big Bob's successor. I'm still waiting for them to hang it in their Decatur restaurant, but so far, no such luck.
But as you can tell, this BBQ festival holds a special place in my heart & for obvious reasons. I'm even more excited to enjoy it again this weekend.
