July, July, July!

July is my favorite month. Why? Because it's hot and shiny and full of BBQs! Yes, Fourth of July was a veritable cash cow for us. We had so many orders, we were packing them up to the very last minute. But we got everything out on time and were able to have our own little fest on that very special day. I hope we were able to bring some deliciousness into every household that receieved a box of our sauce. That would be so gratifying. Anyway, all that extra cash from the holiday is being poured right back into the company. We're working on setting up a good marketing budget. To be really huge, we'll need to hire a bunch of people to analyze person search results. That's how your find out who's buying your product, where it goes, what the quanitity is in a certain area, etc. It's statistics basically. I'd do it myself by I'm really into the management part of the business now. I don't wanna spend my time doing the menial stuff even though I am legendarily good at people finding. But anyway, I'm going to try and find a person now online to start crunching the numbers for the company. It's gonna be awesome, wait and see.

Happy June!

Has it been a good summer so far for you? Maybe summer hasn't even come to your part of the world, which makes me sad for you. Luckily, summer is great for me because when do people have the most BBqs and therefore buy the most BBQ sauce? That's right, summer! Ever since the weather warmed up it's been a snap to find people who want to buy our special sauce in bulk. Boxes and boxes of the stuff have been shipping out every day. So I've been rolling in the dough recently, which feels awesome! This disposable income thing is great! What I'd really like to do is find a person who knows about sauces so we can build up our inventory. Maybe some special sauces, ranch, chipotle; the possibilities are endless. If we build up the business enough, we might start shipping internationally. Who knows, maybe one day we'll send a box of secret sauce to Madonna! It could happen. This is why I love the summer: all the possibilities!

Launch Tonight!

Whaddup? Happy Cinco de Mayo everybody! We thought that this holiday would be an amazing time to launch our barbeque sauces. Of course, we had no idea what we had cut out for ourselves. We had to find a person willing to handle distribution, since as much as we love the sauce, dude, we're not about to be all business or whatever. Then, little things like caterer and publicity for the launch! We did a background check on everyone involved, just to make sure they were all cool. They are. Someone forwarded me this article of junk food alternatives that don't suck - wonder if we should make a diet BBQ sauce? Or is that totally lame?

Finding the Perfect Sauce

What's shakin, brodigglies?! Things are getting super crazy over here. Me and the housedudes just had a BBQ last night and over the course of several bottles of vino and a couple cases of brewskies, we hatched a just-crazy-enough-it-might-work plan to market our own barbecue sauce and local raw dog food distribution. Yup, we're moving on up. And we already have a killer name for our company: the Broman Empire! How sweet is that? I've just been thinking up names too for the various sauces we'd have. Our sauces change all the time, so I guess we'd have to come up with some sort of constancy if we're gonna mass market the stuff. But I want to model the names after our favorite strains of cannabis. Afghan Train is gonna be a crazy intense sauce based on North African type flavors...kinda like a tagine almost. So as you can see, brofish, we are quite serious about our sauces. As for the dog food, we're gonna get our meat wholesale from a local organic farm, process it, toss in some organic veggies, and hopefully distribute it to local dog owners. Now we just gotta find a farm that we can trust. Farmers can be just as shady as lawyers! I guess I'll have to hop on the people search to check people out. I remember we met one guy at the farmer's market. He said he could get us grass fed organic lamb and beef for decent prices. Well, we run a person search on the dude and find out he's a sneaky rat with a criminal record! So much for that. Oh and I don't even follow TV, but my bud turned me on to this hilarious list of 10 Reasons We Believe Ryan Seacrest Is Gay and I couldn't stop laughing. I mean, I actually respect the dude and he seems decent and all, but it was funny. To change the subject, I went to the doc the other day. He said I'm eating too much meat, that it can't be good for me. But I'm healthy and trim and fit as a jaybird, dude! So chill. Maybe just in case, I'll go buy vitamin. Alrite...peace bros!

Finding the Right Diet

Rufus is my guy. You guys all know that. Rufus is the numero uno canine dude in the world, and so I want that guy to eat the numbero uno dog food. I started thinking about kibble and I wondered what the hell people put in it. Turns out the main ingredient in this doggy kibble we've been buying is rice. Rice. You think wolves were eating rice in the wild. No way dude, no way! Lamb meal was number two, but what the hell is lamb meal? Is that like flour made out of lamb? Say what? Sounds totally bogus to me. I've moved the guy onto a diet more in line with what he would have eaten in the wild. Don't worry, I checked this out with the doggy expert down the street. So anyway I'm feeding him a totally raw diet. Turkey necks, chicken gizzards, lamb leg bones that I get from the local butcher. Butch, our butcher (crazy right?), knows us real well since we're barbecue crazy so we're always buying stuff from him. He just hooks it up with all the extra pieces that he can't sell. Rufus loves it. You guys should check his coat. Totally glossy! Ok brosephinos, I'm gonna leave you with some crazy links for people search to teach how to find person using people search engines. So hopefully you guys keep thinking of this blog as your info source on how to find people and how to barbecue rad meat. Oh, and how bout Eon. Well, check out everything about Eon's Facelift. Peace out brahs.

Looking for BBQ Secrets?
As you dudes know, we are the undisputed reigning Big Kahunas of the surf/BBQ world. Unfortunately, you will most likely never get to feast on our BBQ. The next best thing is available: I'm gonna give you some BBQ secrets that will help you eat like the bros. First thing ya gotta do is pick your meat. I like spare ribs, cause they have more meat and more flavor in my opinion (compared with the baby backs). I like to do a dry rub beforehand, about a day before you're gonna smoke em (yep, smoke--you have totally got to smoke ribs, bro). My rub is a combination of paprika, cayenne, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, celery seeds, and cumin. It's gonna be a big crazy red mess. Just try out different combinations, dude. You can't really go wrong with all that spicy goodness. Apply it liberally to the ribs and wrap em in foil and toss em in the fridge overnight. You can also start making the sauces now. Yep, MAKING sauceS. Don't buy that KC Masterpiece crap. It is most excellent to eat ribs doused in your own sauces. I like to keep some of that same rub on hand for the sauce. Just save a bit from the ribs. There are two main (in my opinion) types of sauces to make: mustard based and vinegar based. For the vinegar one, I start with some white vinegar. Just plain stuff. Throw in some chile powder, the hotter you can handle the better. Some salt, pepper. That's the basics for a vinegar sauce. You can try adding honey, brown sugar, even ketchup if you like. I like to add a few palm fulls of my rub to it too. Just experiment with whatever you like. I like to make my mustard based sauce with apple cider vinegar and plain yellow mustard. Then add some honey, salt, pepper, and chile powder. The best way truly is to just try out your own creations. Use mine as a starting point. Ok, now run along and BBQ! Oh um I almost forgot about the people search stuff! Check here for people records and check out this link if you're interested in finding people using a people search engine. Peace out brosephs!

Dog Search is OVER

Brad here, totally stoked! You guys remember the surfing dog I spoke of in my last post? Well, Rufus is officially the house dog. Yup, we named him Rufus, and he is totally the greatest canine any of us have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He's become a total brother to all of us. And not only can he surf (he prefers short boards--cool right?) but he loves BBQ. The little dude is like our personal bone disposal. Don't worry, I checked it out and rib bones are good for little doggy dudes like Rufus. We had a T-bone eating contest and Rufus smoked us all, even Derf, the resident house champ. Of course, Rufus had taken like three monster bong rips, but it's still impressive for a little mutt. In non dog news, we've been grilling up a storm. People look at us like we're crazy cuz it's winter and all, but our house motto has always been All BBQ, All the Time (with surfing thrown in too). And hey, it's not like it's ever really THAT cold. Speaking of that, we're actually throwing a Winter BBQ party. I've been looking for old friends to invite, and I have some great links that helped me and will probably help you too. So if you're looking to search people or even people search, look no further than numero uno! Oh, and here are some hilarious euphemisms for the lower class. Peace bros...the grill awaits!

Finding People to BBQ With Daily

Searching Myself

Okay, so, I took my mom's advice to heart and decided I needed to do things myself. So when this neighbor of mine suggested we do a little business together (he sells stuff online, and I do, and he thought some cross marketing might be good), I thought, okay Brad, before you get all suped up about this, check this guy out. I've been burned in business ventures and wanted to make sure this guy was legit. So I used this find people site, and found out the guy's got a record--and not for something small and dismissable either. I didn't confront him about it or anything, just told him the business partners and I talked it over and decided we wanted to go in a different direction. Meanwhile, as I was searching "find person" I discovered this awesome blog about a dude who also likes searching people--someone I'd totally invite to a BBQ. Oh, and I actually made it out to the water this morning, and as I was sitting on my board waiting for a good wave to roll in, I see this dog sort of floundering in the water. I paddle out to him, and the poor thing is like half-drowning, do I put him on my board and called Greg (one of the housemates) over to help. Dog rode the board like a pro! We got the dog back up on the beach. He didn't have any collars and we couldn't find anyone he belonged to, so we took him back to the house. We're going to put up fliers, see if anyone claims him. I'm kinda hoping no one will; a surfing dog would be really cool.

Finding People Who Like BBQ
So all my neighbors have become to hip to my BBQ jive. They all smelled the deliciousness and have come conveinently by when we are grilling. It's been great though, cause I really wanted to get to know my neighbors anyways, and a lot of them are really cool. Some are pretty cute too. ;)  When I was growing up, I was really close to the neighbors because our parents would watch their kids and they would watch me. I lost touch with them sadly, or at least thought I had until the other day when my mom was like, I find people now. And I was like, what do you mean by that mom? She told me that she had looked up a few of the neighbors from our old house, to invite them over. She too had thought it was far too long since seeing them all. Apparently she's really good at person search because she found all three families we used to do things with. Then she sent me an email with a link to this site GiantLists.com - Never Hire People to Do For You, and told me I needed to stop hiring people to do random stuff for me. "You're a big boy now" she told me. Whatever mom, just call me when the old neighbors come over. Heh. But she's cool, really.

Welcome to my page!

Hello! I'm Brad and I have decided to start blogging, which is totally unlike me. I'm not much into computers, but all my friends are real geeky, so here I am. I didn't know which blog platform to chose, because there are so many out there. I liked the way this one sounded, so I went with it. I'm a pretty go-with-the flow kinda guy, in general. I like surfing a lot, I go out every morning, or I try to at least. I've had a couple mornings when I don't make it. It's probably because I partied too hard the night before. Heh. Yeah, I tend to do that sometimes. I own my own online clothing company that sells surf clothes mainly. It's cool cause I get to work from home. So that's sweet. I just moved into a huge house with four of my buddies (two that work with me) and we love to BBQ. We do it like every week. We like Bobby Flay too. Anyways, check back soon for more updates. Later!
