BBQ Review- Capital Q- Washington D.C.

This last week I spent in Washington D.C. at the National Police Officers Memorial. While in Washington, I was able to take in the sights see some of our Nations national treasures and take in some of the local cuisine.

One of the things I do when I go to a different state is try the local BBQ joints trying some of the different tastes and preferences from one place to another. So while in D.C. I was directed by several locals to a joint called “Capital Q-Texas Style BBQ” located in the Chinatown district. ( www.capitalqbbq.com)

I was pretty excited at first because Texas style BBQ is my favorite style of BBQ and the style I love to cook, and second because I was receiving a lot of positive recommendations for this restaurant.

Bossman’s Smoked Meatloaf Video for Food Network’s “Grill It” Contest!

With this being National Barbeque Month, I went ahead and did something I have wanted to do for awhile. Put my knowledge and skill on tape and put it out their for the world to see!

This summer Food Network will be airing a new show with Chef Bobby Flay called “Grill It”. What Food Network is asking is for all those grill masters out there to upload 2-minute videos displaying their skills and explaining why they love to grill and should be selected to appear on an episode of “Grill It” with Chef Flay.

So 4 weeks ago my wife with her trusted video camera in hand filmed yours truly smoking some Barbeque for the world to see!

Anyone can cook the normal everyday selections for the grill such as chicken, steaks, burgers and so on. What I did was try and think outside the box and do something easy and yet something most people wouldn’t think to grill or smoke. I ended up doing two items. First was Smoked Meatloaf and the other, Smoked Hog Apple Beans!
