    OT - Because it’s never to early to be thinking about 4th of July BBQ

    For ribs ( beef back/short or pork ), I "follow" the 3-2-1 ( usually more 2-1.5-.5 ), and use pomegranite juice instead of cider/orange juice when wrapping. Leave out the brown sugar too.

    Was there any real reason not to choose Meridian over Starkville as the site for MSU?******

By the board’s next meeting on December...

    More Starkville Biz News

    I like Aldis. They have the best prices all around, but they can be hit or miss on items. At Easter/Christmas, their hams cant be beat for price and taste. Best overall price on meats like pork steaks, and thighs/legs. Their Aldi Finds can be a good deal. Our grocery runs tend to be multiple...

    OT: If you are tired of Wordle or want a slightly different take try Interword
