The phrase "country's come to town" has never been more true or descriptive of Brent's latest trip. The consummate country boy spent three days in the middle of New York City with his family. His expectations for discomfort were high but what he found was just the opposite, and even though he was far from Arkansas, it felt very close to home. Brent's in the Big Apple this week on MeatEater's "This Country Life" podcast.
