Brulee, the memory isn't what it used to be. Paul was Stan's partner when they started the company. They really created some inovative products when they were a small company. No, I don't live in Santa Maria. But I do make it a point to try to grab some Santa Maria BBQ when passing through to points North. There's something about the justifiably famous tri-tip or a good oak grilled steak. Oh, and those Santa Maria beans, too!
