Gluten-Free BBQ Sauce Review

We know that it is sometimes difficult for people to find extraordinary foods that will meet both their taste and diet criteria. We hope this review of the Three Little Pigs Kansas City Sweet BBQ Sauce with a rating of 5 of 5 will help get that job done. So, for all those who have been waiting and watching for this kind of product bearing this kind of review - wait not more.

We look forward to hearing from you on this and other great BBQ related products!!

A great BBQ recipe and Smartphone Apps

This is a great BBQ recipe and we know because they were kind enough to detail what was in the rub so we could compare it to what we've done in the past. Clearly there are some very passionate cooks in Austin!

Also, you should note that the Big Oven has come up with a combined recipe and grocery shopping application for the iPhone, iPad, Android and Windows phones. You can see a demo of the app at the link below and it's definitely worth your time!

Another BBQ Sauce Review

Although we don't carry this product, we do want to give credit for excellence. We haven't tried this ourselves but, we do like the promise of it. The really interesting part about this sauce is that it has an interesting combination of key ingredients. Those ingredients are vaguely defined but, we are told that it has hot chile(?) peppers, spicy brown mustard and ginger. I don't know about you but some taste combinations are just intriguing. The combination of hot chili's and ginger has some appeal to it. In this case the balance that is achieved between the three key items could be a very interesting taste!

Oh, and before I forget, Charcoal and More has moved to 840 S. Penn Ave, Suite C in Sellersburg, IN 47172. There is now a showroom that will allow most of the grilling supplies they have to be displayed there. See you at the BBQ Bootcamp there next weekend!!

Three Little Pigs BBQ Sauce Review

Well, this reviewer has "BBQ Sauce on the Brain" and I'm glad to know that I have company! Yes, this review was from February of this year and I was glad to finally see our sauce reviewed by someone that we have no contact with. It seems that we might have a new convert!

BTW, one of his readers asked if Three Little Pigs BBQ Sauce was "gluten free" because should couldn't tell. The "All Natural" sauce is gluten free and we expect that line of sauce will be reviewed soon because it is so important to those folks who have Celiac disease or are gluten intolerant. We'll let you know when we find out! Until then...

BBQ in Louisville KY Metro Area

We wanted to get a sense of what the online BBQ community could find when trying to get a good overview of what was happening in Louisville just by doing a search in Google. It was a bit disappointing!! The number one result was a review that was yield just by typing "BBQ" in the search line and it yield a summary that was dated 2007. So much for fresh content! The other selections in search didn't look very promising. So, we backed up and typed in "barbecue" and the results were a little better. Still, it was a disjointed collection of comment, reviews and advertisements.

It looks like there is a need for central review site for BBQ here that ranks #1 on Google and doesn't make people work hard just to get a sense of what is out there. Maybe we'll take that on? In the meantime, if you want a source of information and some really great products to make your next BBQ event the best in class, google Charcoal and More today!

Is Charlotte, NC a cultural BBQ center?

We mentioned before that there seemed to be some eyebrows raised when Michelle Obama extolled the virtues of Charlotte as being a BBQ town. Shown below you will also see that the author raises the validity of this point with the judicious use of question marks as "Barbecue? In Charlotte?"

As in most controversies, there is a lot of information that gets put out there, some good, some bad and some that is just made up! However, one of the bonuses here is that there is a book co-authored by a retired North Carolina professor, John Shelton called "Holy Smoke: The Big Book of North Carolina Barbecue." Is it worth a read? We don't know. If there is anyone out there who has read it, has it, whatever, please let us know!

T-Moldings

If you are replacing the flooring in your house, there is a pretty good chance you are going to need to buys some t-Moldings for part of your house. This is a pretty important product because it is an appearance product and it is also a "high wear" product in the flooring area. So, having the need to have products that are both function and stylish while you walk on them is a little tough.

These parts are typically more expensive so please take that time review them and to make a decision based on wear and longevity.

Is there any wonder Google is losing ground to Facebook?

I recently had the occasion to need to run a mobile ad campaign on AdMob. I had been there before, worked through all of the tutorials and felt reasonably comfortable with the process. I am working in a group of people who are supposedly advertising there on a regular basis. Wow, I think that they are likely to be in need of some serious help from a mental health professional! I had my ad constructed and the only thing that I had left to do was to upload my banner ad. I did that and clicked the button to save and complete the ad. I received an error message saying that my banner had to comply with their guidlines which said that it had to be 320 x 48. I check, re-checked, created new banners, re-checked and tried again repeatedly. Nothing good happened! 

I decided to solicit help from support. I pushed the button leading me to FAQ's. Does anyone ever really get anything from FAQ's? I mean, they are kind of like pointing out the obvious. What about all of the gray areas and instances that just defy logic? Isn't that when you call someone? Oh, that's right, you can't call because that would mean that someone would be giving you customer service that is valuable. How would that look?

Upon reflection, I'm thinking about all of the Guru's that I hear from on a daily basis. You know, they give away free stuff every day! Some of it might not be worth a lot and they may have "borrowed it" from someone else but hey, the original owner would have given it away too! By the way, I did look for a phone number here in the United States on the AdMob website but there wasn't any. Now, if I was in London or any number of other places on the globe I could have picked up the phone and called them because they have published phone numbers. No, that doesn't mean they would have answered but I do take some satisfaction in knowing I could have called them.  Hmmm,.....what to do? You would think that Google wouldn't have paid $750 million for an outfit that gives such poor service would you?

I know, I'll run a mobile campaign on Mobile AdWords! So, I spent several hours doing that , getting that ready to run this morning starting at 7 a.m. Everything looked great and ready to go. 

I couldn't help but peak at the campaign about 10 a.m. to see how things were going. Wait a minute! Now it says that it is under review!! A quick review yielded nothing but in navigating around the AdWords site it became obvious that you weren't going to see that "Under Review" sign unless you were in just the right place at the right time! Not very damn likely.

So, maybe we'll all get lucky and these two will decide to outsource all of their support and customer service functions to the top 6 internet gurus. At least we would get some service and things would work! Of course we might get cross sold and up-sold every time we turned around but I think I prefer that to being ignored when I have a need or an emergency.

I think I need to go see my old buddy (at least he says I am) Howie Schwartz about doing some ads on his mobile platform. I bet he'll get it done and probably today!

I'm thinking very seriously about attaching an auto responder to my e-mail accounts that sends everyone some boiler plate information. You know what I mean, something like" If you are trying to sell me a product or service I'm fine with that." But, "If you can only offer me a return e-mail on in 48 to 72 hours, don't bother!"  Maybe you will too and we can change the world!!

The Truth About Backlinks Inner Circle Review

The Truth About Backlinks Inner Circle Review

For the World Wide Web, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is like water to a plant. For SEO work to be successful on a website, links need to go in and out of that website. Back links are also referred to as inbound links and are submitted to other sites. There is a company that knows the importance of links and according to Backlinks Inner Circle Review, they do this well.


They stress the importance of back links to reach higher rankings in search engines. The more links on other websites, the more credibility with search engines and that means the higher one will be seen in search engine results. This company will recommend a marketing strategy that includes efforts to obtain more popularity for links.


They build back links that are of quality information and that are related to the company website. Search engines will not place a lot of weight on links that are not related to the specific website. There is no use linking to car tires when your website is all about speedboats. A site with only a small number of quality back links, will position itself higher for targeted keywords. Sites with several unrelated links will not have a good ratings. This is where the experts will assist a company to get the keywords and links right.


There are various ways in which they will assist a company to obtain back links for their website. Some of these methods are done free while others will cost money. The free options are to place the website on a large number of directories that are available on the Internet. They have knowledge of the reputable directory sites and will use those to ensure the website will have search engine favor.


Link exchange is another method that they will apply to a company website. This is when a web master creates a link on a website, which points to other webmasters. One-way links hold more advantages that two-way search engines will ignore links and irrelevant links. Webmasters usually have several websites and some are not even related to the other.


Backlink Inner Circle is aware of this and will irradiate any problems relating to IP clashes. This happens when the same IP is picked up more than once on the same website. A search engine will regard this as duplication and ignore one or all of these links.


One of the best ways to build links is to use an article directory. Such a directory contains a huge amount of articles. It allows one to publish articles together with links in a resource box. These directories ask for quality content, they approve and publish the content and in return provide a suitable category for the website and provide the links.


The newest method is to post discussions in forums and blogs. Most often, these websites already carry extremely successful links and SEO optimization, therefore the moment a company name appears in one of these pages, it will be displayed very high in search engine results. Backlinks Inner Circle knows this too well and is available to assist companies in all of the above-mentioned strategies.
