My family and I went to a family friend’s BBQ in Barrington this afternoon. It was the perfect weather to be out and enjoy the early days of fall.
I honestly try to avoid eating red meat as possible, but the catering company who worked the BBQ did a great job on the brisket–it was slow cooked for 14 hours. According to their website, Preppy Pig BBQ, based in Warren, RI, caters events all over New England–think of preppy hot-spots Nantucket, Newport, Greenwich, “and all points in between.”
The owner’s enthusiasm for his company is genuine in both the online company description and in-person. He prepared and served the ribs and brisket at our family friend’s BBQ with a smile. We had to leave the BBQ early, but the owner was kind enough to send us off with brisket sandwiches to-go.
The rest of the day was spent like every other college student in the country–doing homework that should have been finished before the weekend even begun. Thankfully, I finished reading Old Man Goriot and studying for French. Only four more classes to work on.
