Back from Tejas-Q-fest

I just got back from the Texas BBQ Rub group www.texasbbqrub.com , annual bash in Cistern ,Texas. Ate some great BBQ at The Railhead in Ft Worth, and also got to the Pendery's store there , where I dropped a ton on Chili and Chile Powders. This is basically a group of internet friends like this one, but based out of Tejas. We get together the first weekend in November every year and tell tall tales, camp-out, go visit Tejas landmarks (The Alamo, Shiner Brewery, B&B Charcoal, Smitty's and Kreuzes in Lockhart,) eat some great (and different) BBQ, and drink copious amounts of beer and Tequila. We also ate some great chicken fried steaks, gumbo, and jambalaya. The racoon was, however, TERRIBLE! This event is put on by Gator Pits, Texas BBQ Rub, and Texas Pepper Jelly for $75/person . We had folks from all over the country. Anyone who wants to see how they do it in Tejas, should try and hook up for next year. It is truly the highlite of my BBQ year! Here are some photos:

Maybe I will. Problem is, it is during my busy catering season!

Ah, that looks like the Texas Legend! Yeah, I think Ritchie just likes to transport the WSM in thar!

Yeah, I spent only $75 at Penderys. Got some Lime Powder, and Worcestershire powder too. Also, got several exotic salts, and a preponderance of Chili powders. Great place.
