Thanks to the Plowboys
Just wanted to take the time and thank the Plowboys publicly for taking some time out of their day cooking for a customer at the World Pork Expo to talk with a fan and share some rub and advice (and a pic). You guys are great, and so is your product (both in the stores and Q on the table) and well earned reputation.
I'll be recommending you to all the people I know that sponsor teams to cook at this event and continue to support you on the shelves when I'm cooking at home.

Jesse, thanks for taking the time to come find us. You need to tell the story of how you found out we were at the WPX. It was pretty funny. Have a safe trip home.
Post that pic. I wanna see it. Did you snag some rub and sauce at our client's tent? I heard they ran out today.

The company I work for is a large distributor in the production food animal industry and we always take a big contingent to the World Pork Expo. At said expo we always cook for customers etc. and TexasAggie97 and myself have been working our way from supervised rib and loin rubbers (go ahead and joke) to certified pit masters in just 2 years. This time frame also corresponds with our time on the brethren site (thanks all). In fact, the 2 of us were curious how many brethren would be there and joked that the Plowboy's would blow our stuff out of the water. After we put the first round of loins and ribs (we did 60 loins and 360 racks of ribs this week) on the smokers and the temps stabilized I hopped in the golf cart to take a look around the Expo. I pass a girl on another cart when I'm lost headed back to the tent to check temps and see she has a "Plowboys BBQ" t-shirt on and I 180 the cart. I ask if the shirt says what I think and she points me to the middle of the back parking lot and says, "Yeah, they're cooking right there." After weaving my way through the lot I found the 2 trailers and the sweet blue. I geeked out a bit in the presence of my idols and asked for a pic and chit chatted about the show and the fact I need a Cookshack. To answer your questions, you know I went to the BIVI booth, I sent everyone from our tent there, including some vendors that were at our sales meeting last year when we wowed the judges. I'm surprised they made it a full day before running out. To be honest, instead of eating at the skeet shoot we sponsored, I ate at the BIVI tent. I loved the grub, and the pig cookies were a great touch for dessert.

Note to self, always wear black and stand against a black trailer when getting your picture taken... it is slimming.
Nice pic.

On the contrary, smartass. Our client pays for each bottle of sauce and rub. Then they hand them out to folks that visit their tent. To be honest, there are people who come back every year to the tent to get their annual sauce and rub to take home. It literally brings people to the tent.

It should be known that Butcher BBQ and I are good friends, thus I can call him a smartass and get away with it. It happens quite often.

Well, 4 of the folks cooking last year are Aggies - there's a very good chance you spoke to one of them (I wasn't cooking last year, I was having a baby). Next year we'll be at the same place, Tent 1, IVESCO, and we're the ones that cook breakfast every morning. We may even (with the CEO's permission) put up a Brethren banner. In fact, this year we converted one of our new salesmen from a gasser over to coal and wood. We've already put him on KC's roadmap.
