I emailed last week about spots but haven't heard anything back.

Based on my email from Tom today, I'd send in the check.

Dogs are fine. Last year there were people walking their dogs through the park and Buster Dog BBQ brought their dogs too.

Just don't get any dog hair in your competition meat - that's a foreign object DQ! :laugh:

 

[Balls Casten]

Anyone else getting in thur night?
I'm thinking of hittting Emerson Biggin's for dinner that night.
Any other suggestions for places to eat in St Joe?

Anyone know if this is a dog friendly contest?

We had Kate out there last year and she will be there again this year.

I'll be in town before 5pm on Thursday because I have to pick up sponsor banner and sign. Randy (R Butts R Smokin) will be in later in the evening Thursday. We're planning to set up on Thursday evening and hit the golf course for a quick round Friday morning.:becky:

 

[KC_Bobby]

I hope to be up there Thursday night - depends when I get the Q'chen back from the shop.

 

[Balls Casten]

Well I'd offer to buy a round for anyone wanting to meet for dinner.
Emmerson's is a cool sports bar on the lines of Hooters except they have booze!

Golf! Now thats a good weekend ... golf and a bbq contest. All you're missing is the strip joint.

Yikes! Just looked at the updated weather forecast and I'm not sure how this golf idea is gonna pan out. By the way... when you said you'd buy a round for anyone meeting you for dinner, would that be 9 holes or 18? :becky:

:doh: I get myself in more trouble.

Weather... Ughh! :rain:

 

[smknwhlswife]

Bring your mud/rain boots!!!

 

[KC_Bobby]

stupid rain

 

[smknwhlswife]

Better start that "Sun" dance!!!

Better start that "Sun" dance!!!

I am convinced that just the simple act of Big Creek cooking barbecue makes it rain - here's my case:

Practice cook prior to North Kansas City - rained

North Kansas City, MO - rained pretty much all weekend

Little Rock, AR - rained (but not til awards)

Enid, OK - was sunny and 80 leading up to the contest - we show up and it is in the 50's and rains non-stop for two days.

Catering job this past weekend - rained for damned near three straight days.

St. Joseph, MO this coming weekend - forecast calls for rain both days

So every time I've fired up the Spicewine, regardless of for what reason or where we are on the midwest, it farkin' RAINS! I'm starting to believe I'm the new Rick Salmon! :doh:

 

[The Pickled Pig]

It's not going to rain. We bring sunshine with us wherever we go.

 

[KC_Bobby]

Sunshine - is that this year's new drink?

 

[moocow]

It's not going to rain. We bring sunshine with us wherever we go.

Pauls full of sunshine, as well as a few other things I can't mention here.
Good luck up there brethren!

 

[Exe-que-tioner]

Good luck to all this weekend! Hope the weather takes a turn for the better!
