Oh, yeah.
I may have to drive through North Carolina just to behold this beauty. I’ll roll down my windows, of course.
What do you think about this?
Motorists in North Carolina are being given hunger pangs by a new scented roadside billboard – which puts out the smell of peppered beef.
The ad, along Highway 150 in Mooresville for local grocer Bloom, is shaped like a gigantic piece of steak on a fork, reports Fox News.
But it is the smell of black pepper and charcoal, being emitted from a high-powered fan, which is attracting all of the attention.
“It smells like uh, barbecue, like hickory or something like that being barbecued and smells like steak,” one motorist said.
The billboard is the work of local firm ScentAir which provides custom scents for businesses including hotel lobbies, casino gambling and retail stores.
Marketing director Murray Dameron said the beef scent was emitted by a high-powered fan at the bottom of the billboard that blows air over cartridges loaded with BBQ fragrance oil.
“It smells like grilled meat with a nice pepper rub on it,” he explained.
Bloom spokesperson Angie Hunter said: “With all the advertising around, you wanna be able to jump out and really grab the consumer’s attention.”

Okay, I think this is total malarkey. But these are the words being bandied about around the NBA Finals.
Seriously, steak, in my opinion, could only make a person play better!
Read this article about the NBA’s “SteakGate.” And, uh, don’t believe everything you read!

Boston Celtics superstar Ray Allen was ice cold in last night’s loss to the Los Angeles Lakers — missing practically every single shot — but there’s only one logical explanation for his terrible performance …SteakGate!!!!
SteakGate began back in 2008 — when Paul Pierce had a fancy steak dinner before a big NBA Finals game … and then choked (his performance, that is) the very next night.
Now, the curse has struck again … because Allen feasted on a delicious buttery steak from Ruth’s Chris in Beverly Hills on Sunday night — hours after he set the record for hitting the most 3-point shots in a Finals game — and then tanked the following game!!!

Hi! My name is Dena P., and I love steak. In fact, I’ve been on a quest for the perfect steak for a few years now.
I love experimenting with food and I like to get my family, friends and neighbors involved. They add a lot to my cooking experience by helping me perfect techniques and sharing recipes.
