Unfortunately The Capt. is in Minn. with an ill Family member,so I will be filling in this month. Let’s talk meatballs,cause they just ain’t for speghetti anymore. I was at Mickey’s Bar last month and had BBQ’ed Meatballs and man let me tell ya when they was gone there was alot of cryin’ goin’ on. They where deelicious!!! I meen finger lickin, bread soppin’, plate lickin’ good !!! I did’nt get a chance to talk to owner George Nelson but I will say this. He gets a BIG ATA BIKER FOR THEM BABIES !! They are the Bomb!! And they are the perfect compliment to an ICE COLD BEER. Another place to enjoy great Florida Style Whole Hog Smoked meat is at the Sunray Saloon in Morriston right on Rte 41. Lovingly perpared by a guy called Kracker Kurt. Cuz there ain’t nothin’ like fresh off the spit. So my advice to you is to call the Sunray and ask when he’s cookin’ cuz ya won’t be sorry you rode up to get a plate full.1 more place to try is Fat Daddy’s in Hernando for fall of the bone BBQ, prepared by Mark Dominque and his wife Jeannie. They have several mouthwaterin’ sauces and great side dishes to boot. And of course Ice Cold Beer. Well That’s it for now, Good Eatin’         ‘Beancan"

Time to be humbled again, how’s that you say, can you say Bar Ba Lew’s. Yup the ole captain found some damn good BBQ and it weren’t mine, this is getting old and my heart can’t take it anymore. Right here in our own town a new twist is going on and I like it big time, being a fan of MEAT and also old school joints with history, so where you say, the Sail Inn and all the new looks there.First a cool joint inside with full LICK HER BAR inside a new Beer Hut outside a new Bandstand W/ dance floor outside and shade and trees aplenty. Ya roll in and its just a nice setting then, it hits you, the smell of wood burning, off to the left a red shack, with smoke pouring out calling, EAT MEAT NOW! complete with Rebel Flag too. Lew and his wife Kelly have got it going on I’m here to tell ya being a fan of shacks and cookers he has the place decked out well and can cook the shit out of stuff. The Ribs are fall off the bone and smoked well, hell even Cindy the veggie got a meatless Taco he made her special. I was told the Chicken was great but every time I go I gotta have Ribs. The menu is simple and easy to figure out (great at a bar) but very diverse as well the burgers are huge and I saw them go my one by one in front of me and they looked real good, so I can see I will be traveling back many times to try all his foods I just have to no way I can not do it. The prices are very good (oh and it’s baby-backs too ) the portions are good and ya got music shade beer and booze to boot. One thing ya also got is some friendly local people all the servers seem very nice, ya can see friends there and Lew is real cool, not some arrogant asshole with his nose up, he yells hey come on in Captain and we chat food and drool over cookers, wood and all that BBQ stuff I feel at home and enjoy our chats, he has some great food and some great ideas for the future for specials and such, I think it’s great we have a great place to get good BBQ and more 6 days a week now and I ain’t gotta cook (It would be hard to beat his ribs) So way to go Lew and the Sail Inn I see a good thing goin on here and I hope it lasts a while, so lets get over and support the thing so it don’t fold up Ya really can’t beat this stuff and this is the Captain talkin thats an order. You will find me under trhe tree chewing on a bone open Sun. Mon, Tue, 12 to 6 and Thurs. Fri. Sat. 12 to 9 eat in or take out

The weather is so good now for ridin so many great roads runs and stuff goin on too and I found a spot again that I always liked , The Neon Cowboy. First it’s a great ride down shaded curves and pastureland with very little traffic (ya don’t have to haul ass to ride)  just take it easy and smell the coffee and take in the sites. We all have been there or go there but when I took a ride there I found some great food deals going on all the time. The first Sunday Free food and Sundays after that all month are Burgers and dogs for a buck Leg 1/4s and sides $3 and other goodies as well , now how can you beat that and they got bands too I mean lets face it cheap food cold beer music and some of the finest riding in the state A NO BRAIN-ER . I gotta tell ya in these times when places come and go so fast ya gotta get out and hit these small family owned joints! They are trying to keep afloat and are doing specials to help you help them They are very well placed for runs as its a good ride in and out to a next stop or and end stop we are lucky here with all the good roads we have hell Cindy and i did over 100 miles on Sat. for Jet and Craig and never left our turf how cool and at one point never saw a car on our road. So you can see why I was so happy to reunite with the Neon Cowboy. You know how it feels when ya have a few beers and ain’t eat yet and a say to self man I need food or my days done been there done that so be smart and make a stop at the Cowboy ya can wet yer whistle and fill yer tank and have a safe happy ride the rest of the way That’s an order! tell em the Captain sent ya. Next month I will give ya the low down on what I was told were some great ribs at the Sail Inn.

Captain Scotty: Whats up Brothers and Sisters:

Been cold out on the road and the Mrs and I have not been out to eat to much,as you know money is tight. But we do try to ride and ride we have some as of late.

the other day we did some hopping about , we hit the Sail Inn for some cheer and as always it was nice to see those folks, and I just love the old freezer/ fridge they have and it still works, not many old stuff left around. We then blew to Mac’s for a cool one then off to the Sleepy Hollow for some grub and beer, the Rev. had pork chops this time too and ya know pork fat rules. Talked with The Rev. Rich a while,, what a nice guy he is treats me like a son and most everyone else that way too. Shot up to the IRRU next ain’t been there in a long time and love the new spot and they are great peeps too.

All the places are great ways to spend small amounts of money say hi to friends and put the wind in your hair. Now if money is still a bitch and it will be more than not here is a cheap apps. you can do at home if ya just wanna chill and poop a beer, now all you he man riders out there you do the cookin ok and give the babe a break. How bout fried Raviolis Fry a bunch of frozen Raviolis and pile em on a plate sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and some Marinara Sauce on the side for dipping, how bout adding some hot-sauce to your deviled egg mix and top with bleu cheese crumbles, Shrimp Sticks toss raw peeled shrimp in fine cornmeal mixed with Italian herbs roast at 350 for 10 min. until crisp skewer and serve make some Cuban sandwiches and cut into little bite sized pieces in a bowl mix two 23 oz jars of applesauce 1/2 cup brown sugar slice 2 lbs cooked kielbasa or polish sausage into 1/2 in. slices mix into applesauce add one chopped med. onion transfer to a greased 9x13 baking pan and cook uncovered at 350 for 40 or so min. until bubbly dump in a bowl and break out the tooth picks. These are just a few small fats ways to beat the economy and be a hero to your wife girl and friends while sitting home and chillin. I always love to hang at home hell its my biggest cost of living so why not enjoy it but when ya get a few bucks ahead grab a scootergoods and find a place to ride to and say hi to the folks and friends cuz they like to eat too
