HellBone 2
Craig was the first person to step up to the Hellbone challenge. We started with dinner at Bukowskis with Buffalo and Jay and then once that wrapped up we decided on a crispy Hellbone for dessert. The mere mention of the hellish bbq sent Jay runnin back to NH. Actually, the poor bastard had just got in from LA and had to go to the office before a meeting the following day. Despite legit reasons, we still think it was the spice… or not. ANYWAY. Craig and I got our ribs and brought them back to the house. I grabbed my jug of milk; Craig opted for the PBR (if MGD is the Champagne of Beers, I think that PBR is the warm box of Franzia Chablis). He bit. He smiled. He looked concentrated. Maybe I built all this up too much. Honestly, Craig is the guy that gets the Jerk chicken at Redbones without a second thought, meanwhile I break a sweat just thinking about it. So he works through it inspite of a ravenous case of hiccups. I get through mine (no pain, no gain) with mild hiccups and another 3 alarm fire in my mouth. Craig was a good sport about all of this and said that he would give it another try at another time, and I of course will be there with him. Who’s the next sucker?
