MUSINGS FROM PASTOR BRAD
Ever since I preached about having a feast and what I wanted at that feast, I haven’t been able to stop thinking about the food at that feast and I decided I wanted to have a little bit of fun. So here is my feast menu with the specific items I would have. I would love for you to think about what you would have at your feast and the specific versions of the food that you would have.
Rules: five foods and a dessert. One beverage.
I’m going to pick a first choice and then an alternate. Why? Because I can!
Here we go. PB’s feast that he hopes God prepares for him in heaven.
- Bacon. First Choice: Sailer’s in Elmwood. The best forever and always. Second choice: Louie’s in Cumberland. Very good but just not as good as Sailer’s.
- Ribs: First Choice: Joe’s Kansas City, Kansas City, MO. The best I have ever had, and since it seems wrong to choose the ones I make myself, I’m going with these. Second Choice: Morimoto Asia, Disney Springs, Orlando, FL. These ribs are so good. I haven’t been able to recreate them but maybe some day.
- Fried Chicken: Art Smith’s Homecoming, Disney Springs, Orlando, FL. I keep thinking something is going to knock these off, but they are just the best. Juicy, incredible batter, never disappoints. You can get versions of these at any Art Smith restaurant. Second Choice: Dooky Chase’s, New Orleans. I couldn’t wait to eat here at the Youth Gathering and it did not disappoint. I recreated this and it was also good (but not as good since I don’t have a deep fryer). Spicier and packed with flavor.
- Popcorn: Alamo Drafthouse, any location, but we go to the one in Woodbury. They have the best movie theater popcorn ever. Lots of butter. Plus you can ask for your own salt shaker and I don’t have to bring my own. Second choice: Disney popcorn, any Disney park in the world. Just magical. It just is.
- Amy’s Thanksgiving Stuffing from the bird. Boyceville, WI. The best stuffing ever. Packed with flavor. No need to really eat anything else to be honest. I would eat it all if she would let me but she insists that she gets to have some. Second choice: Amy’s Thanksgiving stuffing that isn’t in the bird, Boyceville, WI. Yes, she makes two batches, and this is almost as good as the first but not quite. Again, she makes me share. So mean.
Dessert: Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream. I don’t have a favorite brand. I just love it. Last time I got it was Edy’s. Second Choice: Chocolate Chip Cookie. You can never go wrong with a good Chocolate Chip Cookie.
Beverage: Beorn Old Fashioned, O’Shaugnessy Distilling Co, Minneapolis, MN. They filter the whiskey through burnt honey. Delicious, perfect, and smooth. So very good. Second Choice: Classic Bourbon Old Fashioned, Bryant’s, Milwaukee, WI. When they made this for me, I almost cried.
Non-Alcoholic Beverage: Just a nice root beer on ice. Barq’s is my favorite. Lucette’s makes a nice one as well.
Hope this made you hungry! Notice there isn’t anything healthy on here because why should there be!
PICTURES OF THE WEEK

I think kids take pleasure in attacking me!
