12 Bones, Asheville’s great barbecue joint and a favorite of President Barack Obama, is offering a great Buncombe County Bailout plan:

Buncombe County residents with a valid ID get a 15 percent discount through the end of February. 

Awesome. Go. Eat. Groan. Repeat. 

I also see that 12 Bones finally, finally responded to my open letter of July 2007, in which I begged and pleaded with them to open up on Saturdays. The restaurant has announced that its new Arden location will now be open Saturdays from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. I was hoping the Riverside Drive location would be open on Saturdays, but I’ll settle for this for now.
