Where is the best steak (and why)

I might have once voted for McGuire's Irish Pub in Destin, Florida--a great dry aged steak, though they do apply a proprietary rub.
After tonight I might vote for The Keg, a Canadian based enterprise, and we ate at the Arlington, Tx location. Difference? Their New York strip was so good, I couldn't even bring myself to salt or pepper it, and used a béarnaise sauce to dip bread in, rather than dip steak in it. Just Wow. Near as I can tell, the grade of meat and the well seasoned grill did...

Mozambique: Little Rock to Tete

Day 1& 2

IMG_2640.jpegFinally I landed in Mozambique after two long days of travel. We started in Little Rock and ended in Tete, Mozambique.

I ran into the usual customs issues with my bow. You would’ve thought it was a nuclear bomb in my luggage—how much attention and confusion it caused them. At one point, I had seven agents looking over my bow with a fine-tooth comb. Two hours later, they determined it was safe, but it would cost me an additional $140 to leave with my bow.

We had a...
