One day, I’m making egg white and veggie scrambles and telling you that you can eat a well-balanced breakfast for basically zero calories, and the next day I’m giving you bacon cheeseburgers. If I’m giving you whiplash, you should know that this is basically how I’ve been eating lately. I’ve been trying to eat a more nutritionally balanced diet most of the time so that I can lose a little weight and feel better, stronger, healthier. That doesn’t mean that I want to live in a world where date night steak dinners, pizza nights with friends, tacos on Cinco de Mayo and the occasional bacon cheeseburgers don’t exist.  I’m not going to lie to you and pretend that I ate this whole burger, but I definitely could and probably will at some point when I make them in the future.

His career as a steel hauler/truck driver furthered his interest in food, in particular barbecue, as his territory was in the barbecue-loving states of Tennessee and Arkansas.
