“Meat? I can’t stand the stuff,” Murray emphatically stated. “It’s the product of animal suffering and environmental exploitation. That being said, I will admit that after a few beers, I occasionally wheel out my propane smoker and smoke one or sometimes two cuts of meat.

“Roger is always ragging on the American meat industry when he’s sober,” stated housemate Ben Richards. “But when we come back tipsy from a party, he’ll go absolutely nuts with his whole meat smoking operation.

Some Saturday nights, I’ve seen him go through and cure an entire hindquarter."
