Po' Mans BBQ Chicken Sandwich

Is it hot enough where you are at? Here in Texas it has been so hot and muggy. Today, nearly 100 degrees. Subscribe by email and never miss a post.

BBQ!... I'm there! I love a good BBQ anytime. There is no such thing as a bad BBQ. BBQ is pretty much heaven on a bun. Every region has their own way of BBQ. The recipe I have for you today is a bit different from the usual BBQ. Quick and easy. I added liquid smoke... love it!

The power of kindness
It’s easy to act with kindness and understanding toward those who have been kind to you. Yet the real power of kindness comes when you give it even to those who don’t deserve it.

Acting with cruelty in response to cruelty only drags down everyone involved. With kindness, you have the opportunity to lift up yourself and others. Being kind does not mean allowing others to take advantage of you. On the contrary, your kindness can give you the positive, undeniable power to make sure that everyone’s best interests are served.

Yes, there are those who will not respond well to your kindness. Act toward them with kindness and understanding anyway, and even though they won’t benefit from your kindness, you yourself still will.

Think of your kindness toward others as a valuable gift you give mainly to yourself. If anyone else is enlightened enough to accept and appreciate it too, that makes it even better.

  5. I couldn't agree more - we all need more kindness in our lives, and the best way to get it is to give it! And BBQ never hurts...

  7. lucky you that BBQ season has started. Enjoy every moment. I have a slightly different takeon the kindness issue ... there should be no reason to stop to think if someone deserves your kindness or not ... just be kind and generous whenever possible, the world will be a better place in general.

  10. Great way to use canned chicken- I guess you could also use one of those rotisserie chickens from the grocery store. The liquid smoke is a secret weapon!
