    I wanted to thank my elf @GQuiz for my awesome taste of Texas package. I have always wanted to try the Franklin sauce. I also just noticed I was running low on rubs so these will come in handy. I can't wait to give them a try. The spicy ketchup is right up my ally!

    @Budgeezer‌ There is one more part to the package. I judged BBQ for the San Antonio Rodeo BBQ Cookoff (254 teams) this weekend. I came across Rib Candy. There's a bottle of Apple Habanero coming your way. I had ribs this weekend that made the clouds part. Top 3 in ribs all used a variation of it. Hope you enjoy the taste of Texas. THe Chupacabra is my favorite.

    If any of the rubs hit a home run, let me know and I can replenish later. Get your Egging in before it snows next week.

    @Budgeezer - I just had a friend from San Antonio give me some Uncle Chris Steak Seasoning.  It is awesome!!!  Works on anything.  Enjoy.

    @OmahaOne‌ I just received my package and was truly floored by what was inside my care package. Between the all the rubs and sauces I'm going
    to be one happy Egger' for a good time to come. There was way more than was necessary but it is greatly appreciated. I only wish I was able to help my Elfster and much as I was given. Will definitely save up for the next one now that I know what to expect. Thanks again Doug!!!!imageimage

    I'm glad I didn't join this years as I would have greatly let down someone compared to what everyone is getting.

    Blown away by the package I received today. There are just no words. Rubs I've never heard of + rubs I've wanted to try + rubs from chefs (Tom Douglas) I've respected for years.

    Not to mention smoked salmon (which I adore) and a star wars pizza cutter (since I clearly love my pizza and I am a star wars nerd)

    There was not a note, but if I had to guess I owe @PNWfoodie a huge thank you? Whoever you are you are awesome.

    @DMW‌ is a life saver. I dont know if he knew that blues hog is my fav sauce or not or that I can not buy it localy anymore but I just ran out a few weeks ago. Also, the one dizzy pig he sent me is the only dizzy pig product I use at least once a week. Super great gift. Thank you my friend.
    Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.

    A few things:

    1. A goes without saying that the pic of your care package is highly encouraged. Thanks everyone who has done so thus far.

    2. After receipt, please acknowledge receipt of your package on Elfster so I can monitor the exchange progress.

    3. Wow, bad ass exchange so far! What I've seen so far has blown my mind and I can't thank yall enough for fully committing to this! =D> I look forward to seeing the rest! :D

    Guilty as charged! :) Sorry about no note...I realized afterwards. I tried to focus on highlighting the PNW, but there were just some other neat things I wanted to show off from other places I've been. Hope you enjoy!

    Glad to hear. I did not know re: the Blues Hog or the Fajita-ish. Lucky guesses there.

    That's a hellacious haul of goods!

    That Shed sauce - my buddy Randy who cooked the gumbo at NOLA brisket camp grew up with him - they're really good friends and they used to cook together on the circuit.
