Smoking Pig BBQ and the Paleo Diet

The Paleo Diet is more of a lifestyle, a way of eating that is in line with what humans ate prior to the Agricultural Revolution, when we were hunter/gatherers.  It is uniquely suited to humans and matches perfectly with how we are designed to function as a species.  A lot of Crossfit people eat the Paleo Diet because of its superior health benefits.

This way of eating is pretty simple:  Meat, Seafood, Fruits and Veggies. 

Fortunately, Smoking Pig BBQ serves these items in abundance!  Pulled Pork, Chicken, Brisket and even Ribs are great choices for the Paleo Diet.  Did you know we have an extensive fresh salad menu?  All of our salads are fresh made daily in house and come with home-made dressings (Ranch, Bleu Cheese, Soy Sesame Vinaigrette).  Our salads can be served with Paleo-Friendly fresh smoked Chicken, Brisket or Pulled Pork as well.

A great Paleo choice is Southern Greens.  Fresh collards, kale and Swiss Chard, washed, chopped and cooked with a taste of pork, this popular side dish is packed with vitamins and minerals.

I enjoy the fresh ground sausage burger with smoked veggies on top, hold the bun.  Served with a couple slices of bacon and a nice garlic aioli sauce, this is another fairly good choice for those interested in experimenting with Paleo.

While our catfish is lightly dusted in cornmeal, it’s still fish!

And then, when you’re done, you can enjoy a nice slice of Peanut Butter Pie as a reward for your great eating plan!

Till next time.
