The smell
Intoxicating
The sizzle
Inviting
The effort
AdmiredTrying out a new recipe
With a twist
Is always fun
Especially with something
Never done beforeGuests arrive
Looking hungry
Nerves jangle a bit
Hope that this latest
Masterpiece
Is deliciousKnown as the
Marinating Queen
In my family
When it comes to
All things
BBQPork, chicken, ribs, even fish
Spices galore
As I whip up
The latest concoctionMust be juicy
Must be cooked
Must be finger licking good
Orgasmic
As a friend would sayWhen I start opening
Bottles and cans
To make a dry rub
Injection
Pour a little bit of wine here
A bit of juice thereNoses start going
Eyes begin glowing
The job has begun
For this chef of sortsI love to do this
For others to taste my food
Because I have free reign
Over the ingredients
Making something
Out of nothingGot addicted to the show
BBQ Pitmasters
And took a recipe of a legend
For my rack of ribs
And made it my ownThat's what soul food really is
When it comes from love
