    I don't have it typed up yet in a concise format.  I'll try to get it posted by sometime next week. Getting ready for Salado right now.  Thanks for asking!

    Some of you mentioned that this cannot be viewed on mobile devices.  Bruce made a few changes and you now should be able to see it on mobile devices.

    @henapple- It's not a secret.  What are you planning to cook, if you don't mind sharing?

    We are serving:

    1)      Pineapple Gems (chili powdered dried pineapple wrapped in bacon with jalapeno glaze) something that we have done many times, but a favorite.

    2)      Border Style (Chile Lime) Shrimp Nachos with Avocado/Tomatillo Puree.  We’ve made these before, but adding lime and cumin flavors to them.

    3)      French-Onion Wonton Bites.  We have worked a lot on these this week and really love the flavors.  Basically you caramelize onions in beef consume with other herbs and spices, put them in a wonton cups, top with baby Swiss cheese and bake for about 10 minutes.

    Sounds great!  I'm a soup fanatic.  Can't wait to try yours...and great idea about the smoked chicken salad.  I've never tried that.

    EggObsessedLowflyer you should make a cookbook. I really am impressed with your outdoor kitchen and I'm happy to see the beautiful gasser and double sideburner. I love my Kamados but I still use my gasser. The sideburner is a big plus also. Thanks for taking the time to share. Tim

    @henapple:  Yes, I made the peach dessert....not my usual fare.  We kinda slacked at Salado last year, looking back on it.
