seti Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 Speaking of which we should meet up for grub next time your passing through Little Rock. Nothing like splattered hog on the interstate to wet an appetite. This morning I actually heard the phrase "scraping the hog off the road". Quote
JL Sargent Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 All that was left was a "grease spot" in the road. Quote
BigStewMan Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 This is a bacon thread yet you show a picture of some guy chasing rosie o'donnell down the street. Quote

Should we just meet in the hood, or is there anything we need to check out for educational / audition purposes? Quote
Moderators dtel Posted June 22, 2009 Moderators Posted June 22, 2009 Raised and cleaned a few hogs, I'll get that sucker off the road.....and in the freezer. [] Quote

Well Simm's just moved to a new location on Broadway and Roosevelt. The good news is the ribs are still just as good. The bad news is they were at that site for 70yrs. The last time I was there the ribs had just come from the smoker. Zowee. That is always a good spot. I've tried a couple new places but they aren't as good. If you find someplace new let me know.

Daddy Dee Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I don't know of anywhere I want to go more than Simms. Broadway and Roosevelt sounds good. Hope they have more room in the new place. Quote
BEC Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I don't know of anywhere I want to go more than Simms. Broadway and Roosevelt sounds good. Hope they have more room in the new place. I am not familiar with the Broadway and Roosevelt location. Should I still wear full body armor there? Bob Quote

They say there sales are through the roof at the new location. It is actually a little safer than 33rd street. Your more than likely to get hit by rib shrapnal I've been here several times at night without a problem but then again I live in da hood. Rib pilgrimage? Quote
RichardP Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 A late but humorous follow-up to the story: (AP) LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – An 800-pound hog that survived on its own for aweek after a truck flipped while on its way to a slaughterhouse hassurfaced in a swimming pool at a home near the crash site. LeAnn Baldy, whose house is only yards from Interstate 430, said Monday she noticed her pool was suddenly overflowing and then saw the immersed pig, which was having a drink in the pool. About90 hogs were in the trailer when it overturned where I-430 meets I-40,and about 60 survived. Officials said they thought the last of them hadbeen caught. Baldysaid she found a farmer to take in the pig. A spokesman for Odom'sTennessee Pride said it can't use the hog in its sausage productsbecause no one knows what the hog had been eating in its week on thelam. Quote

The hog was also in pretty rough shape. Quote
