I'm not sure how it started, but for the family reunion we had a talent show where the subject was "Barbecue Slugs". Each family developed an act for the subject. All of them turned out imaginative and we had lots of fun watching the acts and laughing our heads off. Raps, rock and primary songs were great - but I have to share the words for this one Angel & Brad came up with. It is set to the tune of the Beverly Hillbillies...
Let me tell you a story about a man named Dan
In a "Micky Dee's" is where it all began
He had mad skills cookin' on the "Bar-bee"
And that's how he won the heart of Beverly!
Church that is...
Well they got hitched and had a family
Money was tight and they were hungry
So off Dan went to hunt 'em some food
When up from the ground come a slitherin' crude.
Slugs that is..."Washington Prime"...
Well home he came with 'em all in his hat
Beverly said "What the Heck is that?"
He said "Not sure, but I think it's food,
So grab some buns an' fire up the Bar-B-Que!"
Don't forget the Salt!
So now each year the story's told
To all our kin both young and old
How Bar-B-Que Slugs came to be-e-e-e...
The best tradition of the Jensen Family!
Then they danced a hoe-down and played air ukulele. It was great!
You all come back now, ya-hear?
