What better way to reward yourself for an 8 mile hike that brings you to the top of a mountain? Lots and lots of barbecued meat.
This weekend, I went on a hiking trip with Brooklyn Outfitters to the summit of Mt. Wittenberg in the Catskills. I read a couple young adult books this semester about Mount Everest climbing experiences and I had some kind of hiking up a mountain fever ... so the boy signed us up for a mountain climbing trip this weekend. Good thing for me, since Mt. Everest is not in this asthmatic's future. It was an amazingly fun time, and they have a lot of other awesome looking trips planned, so check them out! I am very sore today...
Back to the food ... when we were done hiking, we all went to the nearby Hickory BBQ Smokehouse, and between the 6 of us ordered 2 of their Hickory's Barbecue Feasts, $50 worth of any kind of meat you could possibly want: homemade smoked sausage, pulled pork, ribs, chicken, turkey, brisket, etc.... with 4 sides per feast (mac n cheese, collard greens, baked beans, fries, etc). Amazing.
And here's a pic of the view from Mt. Wittenberg:
