Posted for those members who do not know we have a Sauce/Rub Trade in Progress... Only 1 Day Left to Sign-Up
We all know that BBQ isn't just about the rubs or the sauces....
Good BBQ meat can stand on it's own, but a good rub or a good sauce when used properly can compliment a meal and add new depths of flavors.
Have you ever wanted to sample a rub and a sauce from another part of the country just to see how flavor profiles differ?
Here's your chance.... Go to the Trading Post forum and follow the directions on how to register for the current trade round. Once registered you will be paired with someone else in another part of the country. Once you are paired and trading begins. You will have two weeks to send your package and have it received by your trading partner...
Trading is open to all members with a valid United States Mailing address including Hawaii, Alaska, and yes APO and FPO addresses. The US Mail considers Hawaii, Alaska, APO, and FPO as normal mail and does not charge international rates.
Registration/Sign-up has begun...
Here are the dates for this round:
- Sign up ends: 5/16/2015
- Trading: 5/16/2015 thru 5/30/2015
- Salting: 6/6/2015
THE RULES:
If you register as a trader you’re on the hook for a sauce and a rub this round. More is better and that can be a lot of fun, but it’s not necessary. Some folks don’t have access to a lot of stuff where they live. And that’s the idea,
– send your partner stuff from your area and he/she will return something from their area. If you can’t find enough local stuff, then grab something exotic from somewhere else – that’s fine. And try and stay away from the common items!
Once the signup phase closes the computer will match everyone up with someone they've not traded with before who lives far away.
Note that the computer has no records of the first 15 rounds, so you may get paired up with someone from a previous trade, but future trades will not encounter this until you've traded with everyone that signs up. An e-mail messages will be sent to each matched pair (or threesome if there is an odd number of traders), and the rest is up to you.
Slugs… Slugs are those who do not trade in a timely manner and do not communicate their troubles to me and their partners. Slugs will be salted. Depending on the circumstances (unanswered messages, reasons for being late, etc.) slugs will be blacklisted from trading future rounds. Salting is performed on a predetermined date based on your package getting marked as received by your trading partner. So make sure you mark your packages as sent and received.
Information on how to sign up for an account and how to register / sign up for a trade round can be found in the sticky section of the "Trading Post" forum.
