    I Need Some Help!!

    Steve, the event is held in Panama City and I live about half an hour north of there.  If you are in the area, you should come on down and join us.

    I Need Some Help!!

    It went okay.  I'm glad I let you guys talk me into going.  While it did rain some, mostly misty rain, it was not a bad turn out.  It was lower than usual and the busiest time was later in the evening when the drunk 20 somethings showed up.  We took just a small amount of food and over 2 gallons...

    I Need Some Help!!

    Thanks for the support guys.  I really appreciate it.  I was thinking around 50 or so and some jars of sauce.  I can sale the sauce throughout the month at various places like my wife's office and a few local stores where I know the owners well.  We were actually going to do that anyway, but it...

    I Need Some Help!!

    I hear you guys.  I really don't want to disappoint my small following either.  I was thinking right along with you RIbwizzard.  I was thinking of maybe some bbq chicken.  It is cheap, cooks fast, and is really good.  I may go that route.  I was also thinking of jarring up some of my sauce and...

    I Need Some Help!!

    So, what I am getting from you all is that I should go ahead with the event.  I have to say I am surprised.  I thought I would get at least one person saying to hold off.  I do have an easy up tent and that really isn't my concern.  My concern is that it will rain and people will not show up...

    I Need Some Help!!

    Mike, the event is a festival held the first Friday of every month.  It is held by the city improvement board and they charge the vendors a set up fee.  I have prepaid the fee for the entire year.  What I meant was that I had planned to attend and my menu is already planned out.  Sorry if I...

    I Need Some Help!!

    Okay, here is the situation.  I have an event planned for Friday, but it looks like there is a 40% chance of storms.  Not just rain, but good, old fashioned, Florida thunderstorms.  I haven't bought the meat or other food items yet, so right now the only loss is the entry fee which I paid for...

    That is no problem because if it comes down to me needing it, I wouldn't mind the drive.

    I'm east about 30 miles north of Panama City.  You planning a visit?

    I was just yanking your chain, Rib.  Like I said before, I think we have it taken care of but if we hit a snag, I might take you up on that offer.

    Sometimes it's like you're in my head, man!  The plan has always been to paint the rig black and all of the trim work red.  I just want it to look as nice as possible.  I have looked at a lot of different paints, including the Rustoleum, and the header paint from Dupli Color seems to look the...

    RIbwizzard, I would really appreciate that, but where did you find a hose that long?!?!?!  Seriously though, I think we have it covered, but if we hit a snag with the blaster, I will give you a shout.  I really want this thing to look nice when it is finished, but I'm having a hard time finding...

    Getting ready for our second Friday Fest.  We are doing ribs along with the pulled pork this time.  I also have my first private paying job Thursday.  It will be about 30 people.  It is for the lab my father-in-law works at in the hospital.  Should really help business because all of the...

    Well the shirts have been ordered.  We are going with the red and grey shirts with white letters for now.  We will also have black aprons.  I almost got black with white letters but all I could think about was the summer heat next to a hot grill.  I am going with black cards with either red or...

    Dave, those are both good and are both KC style.  KC sauces are the most popular but I do enjoy a nice Carolina style now and them.  When I'm in the mood for some heat, I pull out an old Texas mop recipe.   Bruno, thanks for the kind words and I agree that Texas is defiantly a place of it's...

    I really like the black one, too.  I agree that blue really isn't a BBQ color.  Keep in mind that I am a vendor and my awning color is blue so the shirts would match our booth and the team would look uniform with them on.  However, the blue is at the bottom of the list for now.  I would rather...

    Okay so we have taken some time off from the build to work on the business side of things.  We will pick back up next week but in the mean time I have come up with a logo and t-shirt idea and wanted to run them by you guys.  Please let me know what you think of them. This is my idea for a...

    That's right.  We are paid up for the year at Friday Fest and there are many more events coming up this summer and fall.  The next big thing to add is the hot grill and then tweaking the minor issues with the smoker.  I might even get the chance to paint it this month.
