The latest item I’ve added to the BBQ Jew store is here just in time for the holidays: a Hebrewific holiday card.

Yet despite the heroic efforts of generations of brave [...]

Riddle me this, loyal readers: what do you call someone who splits his time between writing about eating barbecue and writing about not wasting food? Confused? A hypocrite? Maybe even a hero?

I stumbled into this classic piece of American television history somewhat disturbing blaxploitation commercial and thought it was interesting. Hopefully this video provides yet another compelling reason to put down the Kraft and pick up a bottle of sauce from your local barbecue joint. Local sauce is boss, man. Groovy. Ya dig?
