Happy Fourth of July!!
A Hot Dog a Day Number Four: The Kool Kone at the Beach Shack
It's the Fourth of July- our nation's 235th birthday. Like many other Americans, my family is celebrating by going to a parade in the morning, the beach in the afternoon, and a cookout and fireworks in the evening.
After the parade, it was off to the beach where I figured I'd stop in at the Kool Kone's Beach Shack for a quick hot dog.
Hot Dogs were on the menu!
My server cheerfully greeted and served me...
Then I
CHOWED DOWN!
HAPPY 4th of JULY
Marching Onward Towards National Hot Dog Month
Only a few more days until I begin eating a hot dog a day for the entire month of July!
ONWARD!

Definitely NOT a Hot Dog
One thing you won't find the Hot Dog Man eating at a BBQ is hot dogs! I eat enough of them while working, so I tend to not want to have them when I'm not at work. Besides, I have yet to taste a hot dog as good as mine!
This past weekend was no exception-NO HOT DOGS!
I did attend a PIG ROAST at the beach- I haven't been to a pig roast in 20 years! It was loads of fun!
The Pig Roast was catered by Dale Bishop's Pig Pickin' BBQ Specialties. Dale's son-in-law, Brian, was the BBQ chef du jour and he was very friendly. He even gave me the ears and snout for my dog when the BBQ was over.
Here's the little piggy (about 125 lbs) after being butterflied and beheaded
I was a bit hungry, but Brian told me he takes 6 hours to cook
Here's Brian pulling all the meat off the bones once it was cooked (hence the term "Pulled Pork")
All that's left is hide and head (the cheek meat was very tasty)
Pulled Pork, Bisquits, Beans and Cold Slaw- not a traditional New England 4th of July Feast, but delicious nonetheless! I went back 5 times!
How else would you thank the little piggy for a wonderful meal?
