These were awesome, you know when Hotch and Shelly cook something it's going to be great!

Nice work as always, folks!!

SmittyJonz · 04-24-2017, 11:02 AM

Yup I did Meatloaf AND 2 racks of pretty close to decent baby backs.......

I had a great time. The food, drink, and fellowship was unsurpassed. The facilities at the location are excellent. Lone Star Lodge and Marina which is close by, formerly Lantana Resort, is a nice hotel to stay at a reasonable price. Brother Toast was missed. Hopefully, he can come next year.

I brought another friend this time named Austin Cade. He really enjoyed it, and said he is going to join up.

Thanks for the pix! One of these days I'd love to make it out there for one of these.

For the folks who haven't been to a Bash - just go, even if it involves a little traveling and effort. I guarantee it's worth it. People who enjoy outdoor cooking are a certain type, namely friendly and fun to hang out with. No need to even mention the food - we all know how good that is - you won't be eating better anywhere.

Those fried pig shots won the "Dave's Favorite" contest this time around. Close second was that funky German whiskey that sliding_billy brought.

Sliding_billy and I were talking about running bashes also--y'all keep in mind that five years ago, there was no North Texas Bash. It happened because SmittyJonz finally said "fark it" and picked a time and a place at the risk of eating by himself. I think 5 guys showed up to that first one. The next year there were more folks, then more, then we started going south in the fall, now this time we had 30+ people show up.

If you're someplace where there's not a Bash but you wish there was one, just do it! Pick a park that lets you bring smokers and pick a day, then get out and cook. If you take a bunch of pictures and tell everybody how much fun you had, more people will show up next time. Rinse, repeat until you've got a regular thing going.

Doesn't hurt to invite a few Eggheads either!!

I'm just saying invite everyone!!
Cooks and non-cooks, friends and their families.

Next Bash maybe in S. Austin TX......

I really liked my deep fried Bacon wrapped Jalapeno and Tatter Tots with the Jalapeno Jelly Glaze!

I still want to see these fried Pig Shots. I didn't think Pig Shots could be improved upon...

I don't know if anyone got a pic of them. All I know is that once we sent a plate of them out none came back!!
Frognot made them and he tried cooking a few in my MiniMAX. But the bacon never would crisp up.
So I said what the hell, let's deep fry them! And that's how it happened!
And yes they were outstanding!!
