The past weekend was also the Hudson Valley RibFest. Like the improv marathon, it also ran Friday through Sunday, which is the reason I didn't attend any improv on Saturday. I was BBQing it up at the RibFest.Now, coming from Memphis, I'm a little bit of a barbecue snob and nothing at this RibFest changed my opinion of this style of cooking in the north. There were six vendors. We tried four or five of them. Only one had decent barbecue — Butch's Smack Your Lips BBQ. Another place, Big Moe's M&M Ribs, had great sauce, but their meat was dry. They, however, did have very good spicy mac and cheese. So points there.
It was a fun day, though, and there was a beer tent. So that made things better. There was live music — upbeat, cover music that people could dance to, but no one did. And there were plenty of bouncy things for kids because God forbid they hold an event up here and not have a bouncy house for the kids. There would be kid riots and nobody wants that. They're so little, they can kick your shins before you even know they are there. Dastardly children!
