A hard-working, loyal family man and proud Texan, Hank is assistant manager of Strickland Propane. Hank's better half is Peggy, a substitute Spanish teacher, fast-pitch softball hurler, local Boggle champion and notary public. Hank is the ringleader among his pals, Dale, Bill and Boomhauer. Dale's an exterminator who never met a conspiracy he didn't like, but is ironically unaware that his wife has been cheating on him for years. Most episodes, you'll find Hank and the boys drinking beer around the barbecue.
Chances are, what's on the grill is a sacred cow.
