Many restaurants in America are a family business. But how do you be "you" in a business that you didn't build? For that discussion, we keep the BBQ train going again this week with Amy Mills of 17th Street Barbecue in Murphysboro and Marion, IL. We met up at the recent Firebox BBQ event on St. Simons Island, GA, and although it's often that we see each other on the road, she doesn't stop much these days, between appearances on The Food Network's BBQ Brawl to book publicity for Praise the Lard to getting a bbq sauce factory up and running. Beyond the Bon Appetit's Best Ribs in America, I think she makes the best baked beans I've ever had, and she's highly aware of the weight of a legacy yet also feels the creative urging of a natural communicator. We always enjoy talking.
