A BBQ Confession

Sometimes when I'm smoking up some BBQ on the egg, I end up smelling like smoke. My shirt, my hair, my shorts, whatever it is.
I have noticed that my phone will carry the scent of smokey goodness with it for a few days if it's out and about.
I found myself in a meeting just now sniffing my phone. That's completely ridiculous. I had to share.

It is an affliction that many of us share.

I find nothing wrong or unusual with this. Carry on.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

Smelling like smoke is one thing. Sniffing your phone in a meeting, quite another. "Completely ridiculous"? Agreed.
) I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I'm smoking 6 racks of spareribs today for a potluck this evening. I ran to the hardware store shortly after re-arranging the ribs and being right in the smoke path, checkout clerk commented "smells like a fire". I told her, "It's me, I'm smoking ribs at home". The guy behind me says, "that smells delicious".

If I could only get my boxers to smell like smoke. Sure beats the smell of swamp ass. Maybe I could do a low and slow with them!) "The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

The smell of smoke is one of the best things about a cell phone, saw this today on Canuckistan media, your cell likely has more bacteria, including the bad guys than a public restroom toilet seat.Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

When I smoke a cigar the wife says I can't come to bed tell I take shower, but she doesn't mind the egg smoke smell. Its even better when I add wood to make better smoke.XL, WSM, Coleman Road Trip Gas GrillKansas City, Mo.

Hmmm...never thought about smelling my phone. I do wear hats every day, even to work, and if I grab a hat that I used while cooking the day before, I can smell it wherever I go.
