I'm very excited to announce that the Pacific NorthWest Fest is a go! We have not only a distributor that is willing and eager but more than one dealer wanting to be involved.[p]Details (such as dates, location, etc.) will be worked out in the very near future with info posted as they become available. The one detail I know at this time is that it will be in Washington, somewhere in the "Seattle" area +/- 50 miles.[p]We'd love to have a website. Anyone willing to take that on? If we have that, we can put all our info on that and not take up space here on the forum, which may or may not be seen by everyone since this board can scroll by pretty quickly. Please email me directly if a website is something you'd be willing to help out with.[p]Let's give this puppy a name. Do we like Pacific NorthWest Fest or can we come up with something a little more clever and/or catchy?[p]I don't have firm committments but it looks like we will have eggs to cook on and to presell. Please notify me via email if you plan on cooking so I can get back to our distributor and dealers with preliminary numbers.[p]Pretty cool, eh?[p]Gwen[p]

    drbbq,[p]Me too! [p]Did I read somewhere you have yet another new cookbook out that I need to go look for? I haven't even made anything from the 2nd book yet. I just can't get enough of the pulled pork, bbq ribs, and meatloaf for Lisa Maria, so that's all we ever make! (Aside from a couple of hubby's recipes, of course.)[p]So was that you who just emailed me? You gonna come to our eggfest? Whoa![p]Gwen

    Great! I've got you at the top of the list with me right behind you. None of the men have stepped up yet. Guess we'll have to show 'em how it's done. ;)[p]Gwen

    Sweet! I'm SO there. I'm guessing it will be tough to put together before the end of Summer and if that can't happen I'd suggest late Spring/early Summer next year from a cooking perspective. Copper River salmon, morel mushrooms, fiddlehead ferns, ramps, etc. All that good stuff in the PNW that's in season that time of year and what makes this place one of the most underrated food spots in the world.

    dimplesmom,
    This is great!
    I spoke with the guys at Fireside in Kent Saturday and they were all for something like this. I would guess we could get many of the retail stores involved. Their testimony to how easy the egg is is why I purchased mine.[p]We may have to do some campaigning.

    Count Me In !!! I'll bring down a couple Big Green Eggs and cook up all the good stuff to share with my fellow Eggers. It would be cool to see if we can pull it off this summer, let me know if I can help.

    dimplesmom,
    I am glad that Fireside in Kent was mentioned, you won't find a more Egg friendly group of people around! I talked Egg with a salesperson last Fall when I needed some lump and brought up having an Eggfest and he was very enthusiastic! I will be there in a heartbeat, wherever it is!

    Seattle Todd,
    We were hoping to get something together later this summer.[p]I see your point with the spring. The trade off is those special foods versus weather. We *might* get a good weekend weather-wise in May but forget June or early July.[p]What's a ramp?!?[p]Gwen
