Monroe food trailer serves up barbecued meats and grilled seafood - The News Star

Bro How? BBQ in Monroe serves up barbecued meats and grilled seafood to customers in Northeast Louisiana.

The food trailer is owned by Monte Browhow, who said he started cooking at a young age and after years of working in the restaurant industry, decided to branch out on his own in 2020.

"I was working at Danken Trail [B-B-Q] and thought, 'Why help the next person make money when I can make it myself?'," Browhow said. "It got me thinking, and when they actually fired me, I thought it was the best decision for me to start my own business."

The trailer offers classic barbecued meats, such as chicken, ribs, sausage and porkchops, in several platters. Bro How? BBQ features several combinations, such as a three-rib platter served with two sides, a four-rib platter served with two sides and a three-meat platter served with two sides. Side dishes for the platters include macaroni and cheese and green beans.

A special combination, named after the owner and business − the Bro How Special, is served with three ribs, a leg quarter and a half-cut sausage link.

"From the jump, I started off with barbecue, and it led to more cooking," Browhow said. "I started doing grilled porkchops and started doing seafood. The list just goes on and on."

Although the business is known for its barbecue, Browhow said his seafood platters have become popular with customers. The seafood platters are is offered in two options: snow crab clusters served with shrimp, sausage, corn, an egg, potato and dipping sauce for $35 or shrimp, served with sausage, corn, an egg, potato and dipping sauce for $25. Bro How? BBQ also offers a fried seafood platter that is served with fried catfish and fried shrimp, as well as a fried crab leg basket, served with fried corn and a salad.

Other menu items include grilled ribeye steak, Philly Steak egg rolls, chicken fried rice, baked potato loaded with shrimp and cheese, and stuffed turkey legs, stuffed with macaroni and cheese and jambalaya.

Business has been steady, Browhow said.

"When COVID first jumped off, everything had to be quick, fast and in a hurry," Browhow said. "God has kept me stable."

The truck is at 3623 Cooper Street, Monroe, and is open 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Monday, and 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
