No sir. Your Spring get together. Road the bike over and visited for a short stint drinking your beer and played a couple games of cornhole

AH HA! That's right! I'll be good to see you again!

Got site 128, a little late to the game did not know if I could get time off work. Will be showing up Thursday and staying till Sunday. I will have twice baked potatoes for Saturday Lunch/Dinner. Might join the cocktail comp probably not the Ribs (I know I can't compare to the others on the list). I will have other things (sides) for the other meals.

See you all soon
~Scott

Scott! Glad to see you'll make it brother!

Good deal Scott... glad you can make it.. will be good to see ya ...

Doug.. don't worry about refreezing... just bury good in ice so it will be cold ...

Cool..i was actually just going to post and see if jarjarchef wouldn't mind doing a de-boning demo with my butt (did i just say that?!)....i could definitely use pointers in quickly de-boning. If its alot of work and you feeling like just relaxing, no biggie

I got some fresh smoked owens SS, fermented SS and some dry cured landjager im bringing. All vac sealed so we will need to slice up or cut.

Need any smoked cheeses?

DROOOOOL

 

[dougmays]

Agree...this year will be interesting with this large of an attendance but its very exciting to see how far we've come!!

 

[dougmays]

I was thinking of bringing my Sweet Smoke Q Drum smoker as well but looks like we have plenty of smoker space, so one less thing for me to pack. Maybe ill use this space for a spare cooler for ice

For those bringing supplies for the group..just keep in mind that we have what looks like 13-15 forum members and probably at least that many guests coming (which is awesome!!) but we might need to bring more then we have in the past. I'm going to grab a 2nd pack of plasticware at Sam's tonight

I'm sad i wont be there tomorrow night with you early arrivals but i'm planning on hitting the road Friday morning to head down

Frank,
No problem putting the smoker on our site.
Hitting the stores and loading the camper today. Finally put some new tires on the camper.

Sorry for the message post bomb but everything is coming to be in spurts...

As for TV and Saturday College Football..for those interested....What are our current options? Does anyone have a satellite or HD Antenna? I have a TV i can bring.

jarjarchef - you had asked me about bringing a chromecast, i dont think that'll be viable this year since they go rid of Wifi there. If anyone has a HotSpot we can.

In the past anyone with a satellite dish would be idea. I'm sure the RV crew have some kind of answer to this....

Games to Watch:
UM vs VA - Noon on ABC
Florida vs UAB - 4pm on SEC Network
anyone else??

WOW! You just put relaxing, deboning my butt, and no biggie into the same sentence. Yep, it should be an nterestering gathering. LOL

 

[floridasteve]

Packing up now. I’m bring two teryokae marinaded chickens for whenever (maybe Thursday night?), fixens for scolloped augraten potatoes for Friday night, a Turkey for Saturday night, and a few pounds of smoked sirloin tip roast, thinly sliced, for sandwiches throughout. Hope to leave on the 1.5 hour drive about noon.

 

[jarjarchef]

So just found out that I get the weekend off. I am still on the fence, but will at least be there Saturday even if we drive down for the day.

Guess I need to go to the store and get the brisket...... ;)

Doug I can bring my Cromecast. I can use my phone as a hot spot if needed and can get reception..... I will see how much one of the antenna things cost when I get the brisket.

Thank goodness your off and cooking brisket. Was getting a little worried I'd have to follow through and cook one in your absence. Lol

 

[orlandosmoking]

My phone can be a hotspot as well, IF TMobile has a signal out there.

 

[orlandosmoking]

Doug, please don't make us watch the Gators game. Just can't. Lol

 

[jarjarchef]

You can still do one if you want. We can have our own brisket cook off

Doug, please don't make us watch the Gators game. Just can't. Lol

Not sure about the Gators, but I need to watch my Canes break out the Chain!!!

 

[JckDanls 07]

Trying to load stuff up... not going to well... (I sat down)... The only thing loaded so far is the firewood (4x4's) ...

 

[orlandosmoking]

But you're in the pro division.
That be like hurricanes vs gators.
Haha sorry Doug

 

[pc farmer]

I been watching this Sounds like alot of fun. If only I was rich.

 

[jarjarchef]

But you're in the pro division.

Haha sorry Doug

Having 2 different styles of brisket would not suck. Then we could see the difference between sous vide and traditional brisket. We could call it a test. If you want we could even use the same rub i use.

Damn Jeremy... your bright and early... washing truck now...
