As a foodie, you might know what those are, but most Texans and Texas BBQ joints don't. They're popular in some of the Kansas City BBQ joints, and are awesome. It's basically the burnt points of the brisket, and are ususally chopped. I'll have to check out JB's next time I get down towards Houston.

There is a reason behind it. It doesn't always smell like cork. If a wine is "corked" (that is, tainted by TCA), your first indication will be from the cork itself. It lets your nose and palate know that you should be on guard for cork taint, which can be extremely subtle in some wines but destroy the experience of drinking them nonetheless. I've had times when a cork smells utterly tainted -- like musty wet cardboard -- but the wine is fine. But often enough, a musty cork is a great indicator of whether the contents of the bottle are flawed.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15249458280296425576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943267400111909579.post-6910971196633216862010-11-29T12:13:42.703-06:002010-11-29T12:13:42.703-06:00You eat your CFS just the way I do!You eat your CFS just the way I do!Erin Hicks Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06694717568246518893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1943267400111909579.post-50026043002895829072010-11-23T18:09:27.963-06:002010-11-23T18:09:27.963-06:00Geez Louise!
