Happy Fourth of July everyone! There are few things more American than Andy Griffith, who recently passed away in his beloved our beloved home state of North Carolina. I was trying to figure out an excuse to talk about Andy on this blog but it seemed like a stretch. I mean, what does Andy Griffith have to do with pork? Well, my good friend Eric “Cracklin’s” Calhoun answerwed that question for me with the following video. Take a look and pay your respects to the man who everyone loved and who helped give NC a good name (even if most of us have been subject to a handful of Mayberry-golly-gee stereotypes over the years!).
Andy, you’re an honorary BBQ Jew in my book. Rest in peace.

Worth some research, if I get a chance. . . .
