Good eating last weekend at Irish picnic in McEwen

I like good food, and I do not mind traveling to track it down.  This was the case last weekend when a couple of friends and I went to the Irish Picnic and Homecoming in McEwen.  The event is a fundraiser for St. Patrick's school there, but my focus for attending was barbecue (and lots of it).  The photo below is a sample of a plate lunch that you could have had for only seven dollars.  It included barbecue, green beans, potato salad, slaw, and bread.  Also included was a drink and dessert (I had chocolate cake).  It is on my calendar to return next year.  I suggest you do the same.

The image is a little messed up but you get the picture.

'Ron's BBQ and Fish' worth a visit

I highly recommend 'Ron's BBQ and Fish' located at the corner of Antioch Pike and Blue Hole Road in Antioch. I had fried chicken, green beans and creamed potatoes. The potatoes were genuine creamed potatoes and not the lumpy mashed potatoes served at most restaurants. Additionally, my piece of chicken took up half the plate. It was a mighty tasty meal.

Meat and three's are the way to go. This year, I want to forget that fast food restaurants even exist.
