“Tim is a terrific smoker of our Berkshire ribs, probably my favorite. It is hard to beat a Premier American Kobe ribeye too.”

“Growing up my Dad was a great griller and made family dinners memorable. I loved eating outside on the picnic table by the lake. With my children grown and busy, anytime I can have a meal with my family is special.”

I bring considerable joy to my co-workers by sitting on their laps and relieving stress.”

I love sitting in my dad’s office and the promise of the occasional piece of bacon is a nice perk.”

I’m working hard on my puppy dog eyes to manipulate my parents into giving me some. It smells out of this world!”

I enjoy when all the rest of my fur siblings and cousins sit around the grill waiting for anything to drop. It’s a great bonding experience for us.”
