If you look real hard you can see the Virgin Mary in that steak. I think you might want to put that on E Bay Bill.

I see elvis! definatly put it on eBay

Is that a BGE, Bill?

We should have a NEMBA q off. Pick a camping location, price of admission (and voting) is a six or twelve pack. Each rider brings a sixer, we supply the Q, the grand champion has bragging rights. Everyone has beer, good q' and good riding around. Deal?

Yes Andrew that is a BGE, but it is not mine. I just googled the pic for the thread. See my baby below.

Q and Ride is an awesome idea. And while the thought of a competition repels me, I think if it is for the enjoyment of others then i could get past it.

I havent done a butt yet. If there is no interest shown then i wont do one for the nembafest sleepover either. You need about a dozen friends to warrent the effort and quantity resulting from a full butt.

I feel it only fair to warn you. I have a number of successfull vegitarian interventions to my credit.

I would almost make the trek down to Nembafest for decent Q. Being from the South, I have been gravely disappointed in everything I have found in New England. I am sad to say that the best yet is fast food.

I am also encouraged that you present a smoker. Grilling a burger is not BBQ!

If you guys ever make it to Northeast Arkansas, try Couch's. Best sauce ever.

There are a few NEMBA BBQ masters. Jaime that posts on the forum runs a mean smoker. A little while back he invited a bunch of us for a ride then BBQ (ribs, pulled pork & chicken thighs) and it was hands down the best I have ever had. Don’t forget Redbones owner (& BBQ guru) Rob Gregory is a NEMBA member and generous benefactor to the organization.

Jaime, if I think this is the right person, competes with Chris Hart from iQue and would absolutely kick my ass. I know this :D

NEMBAFest is out of the question for me this year only because I have to go to a Wedding Expo, as we start shopping for vendors for our wedding.

I get about 12 people per butt at home as well, we could do ribs or chicken too. If we could get 24 folks, we could make it happen!

The competetion is only a gag to get people to come eat REAL 'cue and ride bikes. Heck, we could leave the competing out of it and just sit around and cue it up.

Cheers,

Always wondered about Redbones and NEMBA. The bike valet made me curious. Redbones was the first date my wife and I had. Both BBQ lovers. It is definitely number 2 for what I have tried in NE. I keep trying to tell them that the okra needs to be cut smaller before frying but no one listens!

A new place up on route 1 is called Dave's BBQ. It is a chain from the midwest. I use to really enjoy that when I lived in Iowa. Haven't gotten down to this one yet though.

As for wedding vendors, we had Tennessee BBQ cater the rehearsal dinner (wife said NO to the reception). It was really good.

Assuming the weather holds out, Gleece and I would be down with the Q.

We'll also be camping with 2-3 others at least, and I could ask them as well... should I?

Last year we had a big group and it was a lot of fun and work. I enjoy both and am not opposed to hosting.

However.

I am dirt poor this year, and can not provide as i have in the past. So maybe we can make a menu and people can bring what we need and i can cook it. I am going down early Saturday so if we are to get this together it has to be done quickly. Can we get 12 interested folks by 4pm Friday?

the Red Snapper Bill cooked for us at 24 Hrs of adrenilin was hevenly !

the turkey and the grilled plantenes were right up their among awesome many awesome dishes he made us . you know its good when the people at the other Camp sites were dorooling for the left overs !

[Z]

I can bring something that doesn't need to be cooked ahead of time or delivered early (this time I'll be busy all day and rushing down as early as I can)

So.... corn, rolls, how about sweet potatoes? ... whatever, just let me know!

I'm also happy to pitch in for all of those incidentals that'll add up, too. Should someone be in charge of paper goods, or how does that work?

Hey Toddski, you in on this?

[NembaHobbit]

Hi Folks,

I'm happy to help and participate :-) Bill, you are the maestro!!!

I can bring supplies, food, whatever is needed. I was orginally planning to arrive Friday night, but I may wait til Sat AM depending on the weather. Mike T are you still on for Friday night?

Bill, I can email you my cell phone if you need to reach me. I'll be running around like crazy tomorrow afternoon. But I'll try to check the forum before I head south.

Woo Hoo!!

Anne

sure Z,

dinner at 6pm, check with your friends too to see what they wish to provide.

Anyone who wants in, just post what you want to bring and i will update my list above.

If you need something cooked then have it there in time to cook it, or let me know and i will get it and you can reimburce me at the feed. I will shop Friday pm so have requests in by 3pm tommorow 9/16.

I have big tarps so no need to worry about the rain.

I am considering the impact of the tropical storm on everyones plans.

Is it going to blow 60mph down there and drop a tree or limb on someones tent.

[AA]

the latest forecast I heard was for the big winds early sat (2 AM or so) then showers & a little breeze in the evening. It will be an adventure for sure.

I thought I saw something on this morning's news about the parks not honoring reservations,and reimbursing people because of Ophelia .......... ??
Hope I was just dreaming.

[pk]

Camp Lyndon will remain open, and NEMBAfest will go on!

8) Bring sunglasses!

[TrailBate]

Ophelia is supposed to be in Nova Scotia by sunday. Watch out for them blow-downs, though!

[off piste]

And don't let a tree fall on my Lithium!!!!

[Z]

There will be two of us partaking in the feast.

I'll bring both corn on the cob and sweet potatoes. If I get my act together, I'll make a cilantro butter for the cobs, too.

Let me know how many to buy for by tomorrow morning, please!

Z

PS - With very little effort I will be able to bring at least $250 in contributions Sunday. People seem really eager to help!

figure on 12 at the feast, some may come or not


Ok i am out of here

bill

[jh_on_the_cape]

OK!
bring any leftovers to the level components tent, please.

I have looked at the weather and considered the effect of a tree limb falling through my camper.

I am going to come down in the afternnoon to set up instead of the early am. This will prevent the 9 hour "low and slow" required for pulled pork at the Saturday dinner. I will still cook but probably go with the beer can chicken and some other 2hour type stuff.

I will bring the Butt anyway. I am thinking of setting up the grill near the stunts and cooking on Sunday while the fest is ongoing. Then I can share with the volenteers who work so hard doing the clean up after the event.
