Favorite dish to cook/most awarded dish?: My favorite bbq category to cook is either chicken or ribs, but if I have to choose one it would be chicken.
Favorite Food (other than BBQ): My favorite food is a steak, caesar salad, and a chewy red wine.
Secret Tip: Secret is that too many people over smoke their bbq. You can prevent this by running a clean fire and by wrapping ypor meat with aluminum foil after your meat has nice color. Then finish cooking until done. This will prevent over smoking.

Favorite Food: Depends on my mood! I love all food but if I had to pick French as I love rich creamy sauces and Thai as I crave hot & spicy food too! Favorite dish Steamed Lobster with drawn butter....simple and delicious! Secret tip...when cooking and deciding on a recipe to cook, don't substitute with low calorie. Recipes with real butter, cream and fresh herbs and spices always are good. Also, ask your butcher to leave more fat on your meat as this creates tenderness and flavor! You only live once!

What's the best way to start a bbq walk up joint w/little money?
We have an idea for the greatest bbq in town, city of Long Beach, CA there are no others in our city. We have a cook, no workers, no capital, just a desire to feed the town. The other joint was so bad it closed, the other in a near city is just as bad. Do cities fund grants for small restaurants? Or what other sources are there for this type of new start up?
I live in Long beach and I agree with your assessment that there is no good BBQ in this city. Lucille's is laughably bad.
Below is the City of Long Beach website and what you need to know to start a business there.
On Redondo in between 4th and 7th there is a walk-up BBQ restaurant that is going to be opening in an old walk-up restaurant space. If they are friendly maybe you could talk to them and see how they got started and if they have any advice.
Good luck!
