President's Message
|
Dear BSCLA Members - I would like to talk to you about Success.
I have a Success bookmark that I use to guide whether or not I’m a
Loser or Winner. We all have those inner and outer thoughts
that guide actions that sometimes impede on us being the best
leaders that we know we can be. Please remember that you don’t have
to sit on a top floor, nor in a corner office or an office to have
influence. No matter where you sit within an organizational chart,
YOU have the power to control your success by reacting to what a
WINNER says, and
not what a LOSER says. |

is
Success? |

Below you
will find the outline of the bookmark, and I know that BSCLA members
are all WINNERS!

The Unofficial Story of
the Santa Maria Style Barbecue
by Merle Ellis
|
There are
places in this country where barbecue means more than just a
way to cook a piece of meat over coals. It is Tradition with
a capital "T."
Such is the case in the city of Santa Maria on California's
central coast. The history of Santa Maria Barbecue dates
back to the early 1800s, when the mainstay of the Early
California economy was cattle and America's first cowboys,
the colorful vaqueros, held large beef barbecues at the
rancho following every cattle roundup.
Throughout the years, the tradition has been kept alive by
groups and organizations in the Santa Maria Valley who have
made the barbecue a specialty of all major events.
Traditionalists will tell you that it cannot be done for
fewer than 100 people, but that's not true. You can do it in
your back yard.
The only secret of the Santa Maria Barbecue is its
simplicity -- no special sauces or magic ingredients. It
consists of thick cuts of beef, seasoned with nothing but
salt, pepper, and garlic salt, and cooked over Santa Maria
Valley red oak coals. It's all served with toasted sweet
French bread to sop up the natural juices from the serving
pan. |
