OK, meat isn't always thought as the healthiest of foods, but it is a staple in most americans diet, so I'm curious what people like.

Bummer, I get only 3 questions.
I would rather be Backpacking

I used to love eating meat. Prime rib, lamb chops, short-ribs, ribs of any kind, burgers, leg of lamb, it was all good. Was not raised on steaks, so it was never really my thing, although I do like them.

Now, I watch my cholesterol so I eat very little of it in comparison. I'm not a vegetarian, but I eat vegetarian quite a often. Tonight was tofu with spinach, bean sprouts and brown rice in a sweet soy type sauce. Quite good.

I do likesta do ribs a couple times a year, Superbowl being one of those times.

I love the same meat foods actually too much. Has the change in diet made a small, moderate or significant correction in your cholesterol scores?

I'm probably biased on the first question, since we eat more chicken than anything, and have come to eat a lot of turkey-based substitute meats at home (turkey-sausage, turkey-bacon, and ground turkey). It's a love hate relationship, since I cannot stand the taste of re-heated chicken.

I had a vegetarian/vegan girlfriend once, which pretty much made me one at home. But moderation was was my guide over idealism...

I really love the flavor of Marant's summer and spiced sausages...

A significant one, though I'm due to get my numbers checked this month to be sure. I don't recall what it was when it first happened, but the nurse was pretty amazed.

If you don't eat your meat, how can you have any pudding?

I have good BBQ whenever I want it. There's my triple seasoned, twice cooked, beef short ribs just for starters.

Texas West gets some pretty high ratings, I find them OK, sometimes a little dry for my tastes, but good enough I return occassionally.

Back Forty up in Shingle Springs ain't bad either.

What do you consider "good" BBQ?
