The Tip is 'Teach Grandchildren' One day, while I was on the Made In America Secrets site my granddaughter noticed and asked me what I was doing. I told her about the Big Secret and as I explained, she began to ask me more questions. After several minutes she left my office to play with her little sister. Months had gone by and until recently, I had forgotten about that moment. She was visiting again and I was talking to her about buying a custom printed T-Shirt. She immediately told me about a website that I could use to buy one. Wow I thought, she is only eight years old and already teaching me. The most amazing thing then happened, she said "Pops they sell Made In America T-Shirts". Thanks to her I purchased six custom Made In USA T-Shirts. Her name is Britton, she understands the Big Secret and I love it when she tells me her Little Secrets! Now she is ten and writing a screenplay called Mertastic. It is a story about a mermaid. Recently, she was visiting our house again and using my computer. She called me to come into my office and of course I came to her because that is what grandparents love to do. One of the reasons I love to be with her is because it is always interesting to see what she is up to. This time, she needed a mermaid tail for her movie, so we began to look around using Google. Her mother is a talented seamstress and will make the tail so we were looking for fabric that would be satisfy my granddaughter's vision of her mermaid tail. Once again we began to talk about Made in America and therefore started to investigate the country of origin of the fabrics she was considering. Because of that experience Made in USA fabric is now one of Made in America Secrets products. Thank you, Britton. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Kentuckys Smokin Grill A Backyard BBQ Tradition Kentucky's Smokin' Grill started in 1973 as a family picnic and barbecue for a 4th of July celebration. Over a period of about 10 years, our cookouts went from family picnic events to a growing hobby that blossomed into a part-time business. Kentucky BBQ in the Good Ol' Days Dave perfecting some barbecue pork During the early years, we tried various available BBQ sauces. Some of them were acceptable as is, some needed a little attention, and some were beyond help. We wanted to find the perfect BBQ sauce. We didn't want one with an overbearing vinegar twang and we didn't want one with a thin consistency (that stuff just slides off into the bottom of the grill when you add a little heat). We DID want a tasty sauce, smooth and pleasant so an individual wouldn't tire of it. Addictive is a good thing in barbecue sauce. Trust us on that! If You Want Something Done Right? Try as we might to find that perfect sauce prepackaged in a jar or bottle, we were unsuccessful. On a brighter note, the search (and a little desperation) finally lead us to our own refrigerator, and our spice cabinet, and on to our stove top. The original recipe, mixed and served on a ?Derby Day' many years ago, is the same recipe that you will find in every jar of our Original Kentucky's Smokin' Grill Concentrate sauce today! The Hard Part: Pinning Down the Magic The toughest job during the final stages of developing the perfect BBQ sauce was to come up with a standard formula for production. ?A touch of this' and ?a bit of that' doesn't translate well into a refined recipe. Until then, we thought eye of newt was only in witches' brew! (Just a little recipe humor for you). No Compromises! Once we perfected our recipe, we didn't want to make changes that would lower the quality of our creation in any way. We made the hard decision that if our production recipe required the addition of vinegar or preservatives to achieve an acceptable shelf life, we would not market our sauce! When had the sauce tested for production, It qualified for extended shelf life right off the top of the stove. Much to our surprise, the sauce needed no modification! So, you see, it was meant to be ? and the Kentucky's Smokin' Grill legend was born and packaged up to share with the world. Now, Go Get Your Own! Today, you can have your very own jar (or case ? or many cases!) of our Kentucky's Smokin' Grill Concentrate barbecue sauce. We offer the Original Kentucky's Smokin' Grill Concentrate, A Spicy version for those who want a little more heat, and our Too Hot For You variety for those whose palate prefers a little pain. You can order online now, or pick up a few jars at a retailer near you. We also offer our Grand Reserve Spiced Honey Mustard for mustard connoisseurs and those who prefer a different type of spicy in their cookery. - See more at: http://www.kentuckysmokingrill.com/history/#sthash.ZAeBbf79.dpuf |
