Need more information (DLC BBQ TEAM!!)

[matt32]

If can get six family flats of chicken thighs donated that would be awesome.

My plan on the meat end of things was (6) flats of thighs, probably (4) Butts, and then an as yet to be determined amount of ribs. Either (4) racks of baby backs or (6) racks spares.


I had also planned on making a sauce but haven't had time so if anyone makes one or has one they like then bring it.

I spoke to a buddy of mine (he's a Heeper) that owns a Sara Lee franchise.
(How did y'all like the way I threw in that Jeep reference?)

Subtle... Long as the chicken is good, he could drive a Fiat and I don't care. lol

I can make sauce, but I don't know that it's anything amazing. How much we talking about needing?

As far as how much we each chip in, if all we're left on (after the donation that Matt has) is the entry fee, there's at least three of us. Everyone coming just plan on bringing $35, and worst case if it's just us three we're covered. Best case there's like 10 of us and we all have $25 each left for beer.

Brian, how about hooking us up on coolers and ice? Maybe beverages? Matt I don't want to overstep my bounds, as you've been planning this whole goat rodeo, and I'm really just here to help out and learn something about competition BBQ.

 

[matt32]

No toes to step on and honestly I appreciate any help.

I have four coolers but only planned on bringing two (unless after loading my heep I find I have more room). One for the meat and chicken brine, one as a redneck Cambro. I have my two ezeups but one of them is a slant leg (if that makes since). If the ezeup you have is a straight leg it would be better.

 

[matt32]

Any word on the possible donation or price break regarding the chicken?

 

[Blackdog]

The Pelham Wal-mart manager is gettin us a box of chicken thighs. I am still not sure if he is going all in on the donation or just a price break, but he is sposed to have it ready to pick up on Thursday. I am borrowing my Brthrinlaw's big cooler and will bring a load of ice.


Stay tuned. More details to come

 

[matt32]

Sweet tell them that we thank them and appreciate their donation.

 

[TX4Runner]

I have a 10'x10' EZ Up I will bring if it is needed. I believe it is this model.

Legs can be set up vertical or spread out for a wider, stable base.

Also, don't forget to bring dumbbells or something else (toolbox, bag o' sand, etc) to anchor the legs since they will be on concrete.

 

[xodeuce]

Ok, I'll have my EZ Up, and I'm gonna make some sauce this week.

So that brings the list of attendees to:
Matt D
Keith
Hal
Brian

French, you still making slaw on Friday and coaching on Saturday? When would be a good time to meet up and get the slaw?

 

[matt32]

Per an e-mail from Eric M the set up starts at 5 Friday. So I guess we should plan on getting there around then if able. I know that I will staying the night to manage and baby the butts. Open to any company that wants to stay.

Don't know. Word is rain Thursday so they are planning on moving Thursday night games to Friday night if that occurs. In that case work Friday and Friday night at fields. Yay me!

 

[matt32]

So now we need slaw.


I don't know how to make a good slaw.

 

[matt32]

Okay so if French is out then we need folding tables. Well at least one to serve folks from. All I have is my little prep table and it'll be used for prep.

 

[BamaHeel]

I think I have a table. If it rains I can make slaw Thursday night.

 

[TX4Runner]

I can bring my folding table as well. It's about 4'x2' but stout. Not much help for slaw, as I'm not a fan to begin with...

 

[matt32]

Throw it in the truck and we'll use I'm sure.

 

[BamaHeel]

Ok the wife has picked up the necessary ingredients for the BBQ slaw.

 

[xodeuce]

Sauce... It's got a little bit of kick to it but it's tasty.

 

[matt32]

Coolers cleaned and drying waiting to be loaded in the morning.

 

[mjl132]

What time is arrival tomorrow?

 

[matt32]

I'll be there around 5ish.
