Somebody's got to do it ...

Dave Hovest and Rick Dean perform valuable field testing of the latest addition to our line of summer grilling favorites, "WoodFire Brand" all natural wood Bar-B-Que Hardwood Briquets. This gourmet blend of 100% Northern Michigan Hardwoods with no additives give great flavor to the pasture raised chicken of Mark and Jill Baker of "Bakers Happy Acres." The staff agreed, it was a thankless job, but we're glad we got to do it!
