Pitmaster


Last winter my sister graduated from college and to celebrate her accomplishment my family planned a party and BBQ. I come from a long line of “hands on do; it yourselfers” and this occasion was no exception. The small Hamlet of Washington Texas came out in full force to show their support and the pits were fired up for a country BBQ. Watching the matriarchs of the community move meat and fire may look archaic it’s very much a delicate ballet of skill and knowledge.
