[shugemery]

@IvanDrago187 When it comes to good BBQ....Alpha gets it on)))))

[rnlpw]

Darnit now I want some pull pork!! I love my Texas brisket but those years in KY gave me an appreciation for the pig!

Have been watching all your hammock how-tos and you have helped me not to go in blind and give me tons of options.

[shugemery]

@rnlpw I do love a brisket....never cook it good though. Prefer it from others.

Thank feller.

[balwran]

@shugemery HEY man....my daddy built that grill. We had a man call us from Charleston wanting one because of your video! How awesome! You should see some of the grills he has now. He has been making them for about 20 years. You have one of the older versions. They have just about everything you can think of on them now! He told me to tell you that if you wanted to upgrade he would give you a deal! I could send you come pictures if you wanted! My name is Brittany and I would love to talk to you!

[223rocks]

Hey Shug did you live in North Carolina or are you from there? I grew up in a little town bout an hour north of Durham. Watchin this makes me a bit homesick man. Thanks for the memories

[shugemery]

@223rocks Lived in Shelby and Charlotte for years....got my taste for some Carolina Classic BBQ there....nothin' like it!

[MrMiguelfromhell]

The Man, thee Man... wowser.... Much respect...

[shugemery]

[shugemery]

@TheOutdoordude Alston Bridges and Red Bridges is where I cut my BBQ teeth. Lived there when I was in the second grade. and even before. Sister was born there. Shelby Lions

[patience4gw]

Hey Shug! You did it right, Eastern Carolina Vinegar sauce is the only BBQ sauce! Thumbs Up!

[shugemery]

@patience4gw Whoooo Buddy...too right you are. fixin' to cook some butts up soon! Thankee

[cowboysaver1971]

hey shug, once again....... luaghed my butt or shoulder off ! another great vid, god your funny and i agree with another viewer, you do have a robin williams style and it works for you ! kepp up the good vids and be carefull out on the trail

[shugemery]

@cowboysaver1971 It was fine Q and a big party....Thanks

[bilko1971]

Here in the UK a portable barbecue is a little bigger than a dinner plate with a domed lid on the top.

I was going to ask if that beast of a smoker is a rental but i bet it isn't lol.... AND, i bet you made it too didn't ya?

Even in low resolution the sight of that but meat falling from the bone could give a vegetarian an orgasm i reckon. Thats what i like about the USA, they have their priorities right, food and fun!

Cheers.

[shugemery]

@bilko1971 I cook for a crowd....a Pork Pack Party is a ritual in my garden! I own it but did not fabricate it.

Just cooked 6 butts and 18 rack of ribs this weekend for a graduation party......too fun.

Thanks

[TheSchutes]

Mate, your the Butt King! Dual meat cleavers..all the short cuts. Well done!

[shugemery]

@TheSchutes Cooking 80 pounds next week.....I need some Butt!!!!!

Thanks a bunch.

[huguenot67]

Dang it Shug! Now I need me one of them hand cranked cabbage choppin' doohinckeys.

[shugemery]

@huguenot67 Mine still works good...until I get a Hobart Buffalo Chopper

[marshallluke]

[shugemery]

@marshallluke I am ready to have a big ol' throwdown BBQ here at the house soon.......... need some sweet meat.

I thankee

[TainoSun]

Some how you remind me of Robin Williams

[shugemery]

@TainoSun I get that from time to time. Cool.

[BCoutdoorsurvival]

so why the carved pumpkin in July?

[shugemery]

@BCoutdoorsurvival Every day is a day for free candy in my backyard! Plus .......pumpkins are like relatives to me.

[TigerRagFishingTeam]

I hear ya....didn't figure there too many BBQ joints in MN. I don't know how to eat a BBQ sandwich without bbq slaw on it....unless it is the white slaw they eat in Eastern NC!

What part of NC did you grow up in? I grew up in Statesville and live in Winston-Salem now.

[shugemery]

@TigerRagFishingTeam Charlotte and Shelby for me!

[TigerRagFishingTeam]

Good stuff right there! I reckin you can't just go around the corner and pick up a chopped sanwich like we can here in NC. Looks like you grew up here so you know how to do your own. Looks like pretty work! Bluegrass and BBQ.....can't beat that with a stick!

[shugemery]

@TigerRagFishingTeam That s the truth ....want NC BBQ in Minnesota ....gotta come to my house. I got them turned on to slaw on the pig. The slaw sings harmony to the pork.

[earlymusicus]

Shug, your wife is SO lucky to have such a "Renaissance Man" husband! He juggles, he backpacks, he does great videos, he plays a mean mandolin - AND HE COOKS!! Whoo buddy! What more could any woman want? LOL This summer, I'm going to try my hand at barbecueing some pork butts. Looks yummy.

[shugemery]

@earlymusicus Thanks .... it is my ADD.... makes life full. Seriously.

[kyletango]

You need some sliced dill pickle and lightly grilled raw onion rings dipped in your sauce to go with that Q. Alabama style

[shugemery]

@kyletango

Man .... I just drooled on my laptop! Sounds fantastic!!!!

[nismo812]

Hey Shug! Haven't seen any of you vids in a few months, Been Busy with work and such. Man this looked like a great Q! I think God was wantin some Bar-B-Q and sent them there tornados to pick it up for him LOL. I too like to smoke butt, it's just hard to find rollin papers big enough to fit em in. Over here in TN we like that thick ol' sweet sauce.

[shugemery]

@nismo812

Haaaa ... need big zig-zags for sure!

Great comment!!!!

[tylerdurden1971]

@shugemery HAHAHAHA I Just about pissed My pants Shug Thanks for the HUGE LOL more like LMAO

[shugemery]

[shugemery]

@sweetypie000

Congrats on the duvet transformation ..... you will find feathers around for years now!!!

I'm on the road with my show ..... going backpacking in Sept. so a trip video will be due.

Hate to do a video with no muse.

Thankee for checking up on me.........

[earlymusicus]

And here I am, trying to become a vegetarian! It's hard! LOL

[earlymusicus]

I'm HUNGRY!!! I've never seen a bbq grill that big! You could throw a whole side of beef on that! Wow!

[shugemery]

@earlymusicus You could! But I am more of a swine connoisseur!..... I may have to get me a beef side.

Oink and moo.

[coolkayaker1]

Thanks, Shug, for considering it. Just do it if it feels right.

You know the best thing about you? Sure, you can bring water to a roiling boil, and juggle balls against against a wall and under a table (amazing!). But the best thing--your attitude. You are fun, always show a love of life that makes you seem like you're everyone's friend. It's special, and you have it. CK1

[shugemery]

@coolkayaker1

I hope to get to a video after Labor Day .... on the road with my show and just busy as I can be. Summer is a work season for me.

I sure thankee for the kind words.

[coolkayaker1]

Eh, Shug--request. I ride a Uni, but nothing compared to you. I notice you mentioned your new mtn uni, plus I see plenty more in your juggler's office. I'd love to see a video where you describe your rides--brands, wheel sizes, weights plus and minuses, how and when you used them, and some of your history in learning to ride. Just a thought. CK1

[shugemery]

@coolkayaker1

I will have a meeting with myself and we will mull that request!

Thankee feller.

[BigTVideos]

[tommy0135]

Goodness, you know how to live Shug.

[shugemery]

@tommy0135

Make time for fun ..... work is just a necessary evil!!!!

[stickman409]

How impolite. Waving all that good smellin' under a hungry boy's nose and not offerin' him any.

[shugemery]

@stickman409 My deepest sympathies......

Funny. a couple of old outside cuts left.

[yakyakyak69]

[shugemery]

@JimboJitsu

Yep ... gas keeps the temp steady. Wood bathes it.

We always chopped when I was a boy. Pulled was a fancy term to us.

[1JEDIMAN]
