----------Thanks for making the Omaha Eggfest a great time----------

eggfoot

I would like to take a moment to thank all of the forum members that made the trip to Omaha for the first Omaha Eggfest. I am in debt to you guys and know that your help made the fest a real success. I really hope that everyone had a great time and hope you would consider returning to the fest next year. I would like to thank AZRP, MollyShark, Buster Dog BBQ and Car Wash Mike for the help with the cooking classes. I had many many great comments on how well you guys did on the classes. If anyone has an idea of how to make next years fest better I am open to comments, good or bad just send me a quick email. I am kicking back today with a few cold ones and cooking 32 lbs of pork butt on the trusty old XL. Anyway there are some great people on this forum and I had the privilege to spend some time with a bunch of them over the weekend, I thank you for that chance.

Smokin' Todd,
Sounds like a plan, I am going to take off a few weeks then start working on the Kansas City fest as well. Good meeting you Todd.

Eggfoot,[p]This was my first Egg Fest and have been cooking with the Egg for four years now. I had a great time, the wife dropped me off with a cooler of cold ones to go along with all the great food everyone made!!

Morning Eggfoot:[p]You deserve a few minutes of R&R after all the effort you put into organizing and hosting a FANTASTIC EggFest. You had a good crowd for the first fest and it sure looked like everyone had a good time. Looking forward to seeing you again in Atlanta.[p]Have a GREAT day!

SSN686, I missed getting to try your bread out, will you be cooking in Atlanta?

SSN686

Morning Eggfoot:[p]I did look around for you as I was cutting each of the Sausage/Cheese rolls, but the devouring hordes were grabbing pieces faster than I could cut them.[p]Yes, we will be cooking in Atlanta! Made our hotel reservations today.[p]Have a GREAT day!

eggfoot

SSN686, I will have to make sure I get to try some in Atlanta. I need to make the reservations this week as well, dont want to miss out. Save some of the roll for me:)

Eggfoot,
Thank You for such a Great time. This was my first Eggfest and I had a great time. Thanks to everyone for making this so much fun. I usually have a tough time with strangers, but I instantly felt like I was with friends that I had know for years. I made hotel reservations for Atlanta and can hardly wait. I'm really excited about getting a guru with my winnings and what luck that a new and improved version is coming out soon. I like new toys for my Egg. Cheryl

Buster Dog BBQ

Eggfoot,
Had a great time Casey. The hotel was an excellent choice having a small kitchen and allowing pets. [p]Looking forward to Kansas City next year.

AZRP

Eggfoot,
It was a great fest!!! Wow, I was there in OK when you decided to do it, and there when it happened, life is good. -RP

KS Cheryl,
There are strangers and then there are "strangers". As eggheads we all fit in the later category LOL[p]H

dhuffjr

Eggfoot,
I only have one major complaint. Can you move Omaha closer to Ohio?[p]Good to see you guys again.....man if I lived closer to that store it would be a bad thing for my checkbook.[p]Good for me I was a good boy and only brought home one bag of grape vine for smoking in addition to the Eggs and a small quantity of bbq sauce.[p]I'll probably be contacting you guys about a Cambro down the road though.[p]H

Car Wash Mike

Smokin' Todd,
11:00AM is not the time to show up. LOL
See you in KC. Casey and I are working on it.[p]Mike

Car Wash Mike

Eggfoot,
Great job Casey. It was a learning experience. I had a lot of fun, not as much as ST. LOL
Remember Sept. 15th. That might be our chance to get a major sponsor.
Check your e-mail.[p]Mike

Smokin' Todd

Car Wash Mike,
it was more close to 10:45.
If you guys would have came out with me then I would have had people to to get me to bed on time:)
Here is a shot of some Omaha locals I hung with. I think I called all of them "bill".Be sure to check the next addition of "America's Most Wanted". LOL!

Smokin' Todd,
If ya noticed I left my name tag from the meet n greet on.
FOr a few minutes I wondered how people knew my name. Leaving a name tag on in a public establishment
Im such a jackass...LMAO.
ST

eggfoot

dhuffjr, How did the little one do on the way home? He was sure wound up at the after party, maybe that wore hime down for the trip home. Good to see you again

eggfoot

Car Wash Mike, I am there for sure on the 15th. It will be a good time and I am ready for some cooking.

Buster Dog BBQ

Smokin' Todd,
Are you sure your luggage wasn't lost? You had the cornhusker stuff one day, Creighton the next, and I think a shirt from the zoo the last day.

ChefDave

Car Wash Mike,
Are you discounting the use of Hen House and the The Radio show that day. I would say if you are looking for a major sponsor, this should be considered. I have other ideas too.

Gasless

<p />Eggfoot,
As newbies we were impressed, inspired and in awe of the quantity and quality of cooking done on the egg. The classes were a great help.

eggfoot

AZRP, life is real good when you are with real good people. Never fear as I drank the rest of your corona beers. Thanks for getting me drunk but not taking advantage of me

dhuffjr

Eggfoot,
That was nothing.[p]He's still mad at me because I wouldn't let him go say goodbye to his little friend.[p]I think that little lady caught his eye LOL[p]H

eggfoot

Buster Dog BBQ, Rod I am glad that the motel worked out good. I have stayed there before and it was always a clean place to stay. We will have to start the plans for the River city Roundup, will be here in no time at all. Do you guys think you are going to Atlanta?

Car Wash Mike

Buster Dog BBQ,
When he brought his luggage to the fest, we were taking bets he got kicked out. LOL.[p]Mike

eggfoot

dhuffjr, I have been there before

Car Wash Mike

Letts-Do-It,
Not at all, we need cover all bases. You didn't tell me Hen House or a Remote?
Options![p]Mike
