    d.mcc, from eastbound I-4, get off at Lee Road. Turn right and go about 3/4 to one mile. Small place on the left hand side. It's about two blocks before Lee Road dead ends. Picnic tables outside [[and inside). If you go, please report back as to your findings. In my opinion, it is well worth the trip. If you go at lunch or dinner time, expect to wait a few minutes.
    I plan on making the trip tomorrow!

    Nah. Those are avaiable only in the Sierra Nevada region of California.

    If you want sick, try Rocky Mountain oysters. Eeeww!

    d.mcc, I'm glad you liked it. I started to worry though. It seems that lately, every time I recommend a restaurant or repair shop or any other establishment, the person I recommend it to comes back with a horror story. Maybe this will break that cycle.

    I forgot about the beans, they are great. Did you pull the Bud Light out of the wash tub filled with ice?

    If we were 25 minutes away they would see us three times a week. When we go down to Florida for a week, we get to Bubbaloo's at least three times. Last time, we had lunch and dinner there on the same day.

    Back in the 90's I use to go to Ottawa, Ont. for computer training twice a year. Another attendee was from Orlando. One evening at the bar we were talking about B.B.Q. and this fellow tells me that if I am ever in Orlando, he can recommend the best B.B.Q. in the area. I told him that I already knew the best spot. When he challenged me, I told him Bubbaloo's in Maitland. He was amazed as that was the place he was going to recommend. 6 months later he arrived at the hotel in Ottawa and had brought me a quart of their sauce that he had packed on ice. I was more than impressed by this gentlemans thoughtfullness.

    Side note to Ghettopalmetto, As d.mcc will attest, there are some Floridians that know what B.B.Q. is all about.

    Rock shrimp nachos from the Riverwalk Restaurant in Naples, FL. It's located in the Tin City area. Gosh, I'd sure love some of them right now with a cold one!

    Love chipped ham! BTW, I'm in Florida, but our local grocery store just started carrying chopped ham, they offer Oscar Myer packaged and also at the Deli. You may be able to find it in one of the larger chain stores.

    Lferg - Whenever we would visit my Pennsylvania grandparents a stack of chipped ham was always in the fridge for quick sandwiches with grandpa's homegrown tomatoes and leaf lettuce with mayo.

    Chipped ham has a certain flavor to it that I've never found around here. I'll be on the lookout though - thanks for the tip!
