Barbecue Joint
Well, the CFO has informed me that the retirement honeymoon is over and I have to get off my butt and do something. That's not how retirement is suppose to be, is it?
Anyhow, as I already written, I've made contact with the City Manager in Sparta and he now reports that the City Fathers have no problem with a barbecue joint that burns wood so long, of course, that it meets health and fire codes. In fact, they like the idea of a barbecue place in town. Hmmm. Maybe I could hit them up for a tax break or a business development grant or something.
So, I finally got in touch with the health department guy and they have no problems with a barbecue joint that burns wood so long, of course, as it meets North Carolina restaurant sanitary codes. There is even a special section just for barbecue joints!
Seems I'll need to submit a complete plan for the barbecue joint including construction details for the pit: what kind of bricks, what kind of mortar, what kind of grill, what kind of doors, etc. I somehow got the idea that my plans for that old set of bed springs ain't gonna fly. Fortunately, this guy has inspected barbecue joints all over North Carolina and understands that barbecue is barbecue.
And, now, I've just talked with the fire marshall and he has no problem with a barbecue joint that burns wood so long, of course, that it meets the fire prevention codes in the red and white book in the law library at the courthouse.
Folks, I'm running out of reasons not to do it!
