• Redneck Lenten Season Bar-B-Q

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak. But, all of Bubba’s neighbors were Catholic. And since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.

The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest. The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested that he become a Catholic.

After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass. The priest sprinkled holy water over him … saying, “You were born a Baptist, raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.”Bubba’s neighbors were greatly relieved … until Friday night arrived.

Again, the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood. The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and as he rushed into Bubba’s yard, prepared to scold him ~ he stopped and watched in amazement. There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water … which he carefully sprinkled over the grilled meat and said, “You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish.”
