I spent the day in NO yesterday hanging out with @Thatgrimguy and @nolaegghed. Got to check out brother grims new motor home which is just insane. We headed over to Nola's house where we hung out and cooked until after dark. We whipped up some pretty good grub over the course of the day. If you have never had the opportunity to meet these two fellows, let tell you that they are great folks. I had a blast fellows. Thanks for having me over. Already looking forward to next time.

    That is great looking stuff, I'm pretty jealous! Thanks for posting the pics and making us all upset that we don't live in NOLA (haha)! how many were you cooking for, about 30?

    I've never seen a rib kick out the opposite direction like that before. does that happen often?

    Seriously man, great stuff here; glad you guys had a good time.

    Cheers -

    It was there as well. We all were using the 30 ounce Yetis. The 50 quart was there and in use as also but I kept it in back of the Avalanche.

    @SGH - I was looking through the fridge today and all that's left is maybe 3/4 pound of BBQ shrimp. 

    And I realized - we forgot to cook the oysters!

    Wonderful spread. As you know, @nolaegghead is quite the host.

    And what's up with the haircut??? I thought hippies didn't do that sort of thing...

    @SGH, what did y'all BBQ season the shrimp with? Looks like a bit of sausage perhaps?

    Brother double, everything turned out fantastic. You have to remember, the liberals were out numbered two to one by the conservatives ;) This helps to keep things in proper balance.
