    How weird is it that the Vegan Chili is the food that I think of the most from the weekend. That **** was the best chili I have EVER eaten.

    @northGAcock thanks for thinking we're not old... but @nolaegghead is needing some meat glue for his back after moving all but 2 BGEs back to their rightful places with Red last night. I think I'll be moving the other 2. 
    @Piney didn't mean to leave you out -- thanks for all your hard work getting the ice maker hooked up (even though it ended up flaking out on us anyway -- no fault of your as the hookup was perfect). It was wonderful spending time with your lovely wife, and Jazz liked her so much he took a nap on her lap (that says a lot, cuz he ain't a lap kitty). She also held down the fort to sign for a wine shipment while I was picking @caliking up at the airport.

    I'll tell Dylan, our next door neighbor who makes it, that you said so. It's always a hit with everyone. He says one of the "secrets" is that it has 2 cups of high quality olive oil in it (of course, it's like 3 gallons or so of chili) --  but considering that's the only fat, it's necessary. I'll try to pry the recipe from him.

    It wouldn't be brisket camp without a few slices of the digits:




    @FleurdeLirious took care of me Saturday night after I caught an edge of the brisket knife trying to cut up some bread.  It is literally a flesh wound.
    OMG @JohnInCarolina that's probably the WORST bandaging job I've ever done! Musta been the margaritas.

    Just think how good it would have been if you dropped some brisket in it.

    It's not a party until one of the drunk cooks backs up into your truck while saying... "I'm gonna go to the bar"

    He got out, saying it was just a little bump, walked around to see the damage and exclaimed "DAAAAAAAAMN!" He apologized and promised to pay for the repairs. Then he quipped that he wasn't going to charge @nolaegghead for the red paint, and proceeded to get back in the truck and go to the bar.

    Yeah he still went to the bar. No police were involved all weekend.  I told him to buy me a door, preferably black, and I'd replace it.

    Good deal. Always nice to handle things among one another if possible. I saw a tri-colored Dakota not to long ago; I agree that you would be best served with a black door.

    One day, I'll make it to the camp.  Visiting Louisiana is on our bucket list so it should be an easy sell to SWMBO :)

    You should ask for a white door, just so nobody thinks you're a racist.

    That's a serious "whiskey lick". Bummer.

    I was told that there is far too much alcohol in my bloodstream for me to catch anything for at least a month.

    Those margaritas along with @nolabrew s home brew were some fine oral antiseptic.

    @JohninCarolina, stupid me, didn't consider the alcohol antiseptic in the blood stream. Yup, good for at least a month.

    I'll say it again, the band was awesome. They were all talented, but the guitarist was playing a tambourine and a service bell with his left foot and a bass drum foot pedal against the case he was sitting on with his right foot. All while singing, playing guitar and calling out instruction to the rest. WOW!

    @DMW I heard @nolaegghead is giving you grief about the fire extinguisher. Please forgive him -- he's clearly had an overdose of E.W./Zero prescription pain killer for his back... clearly when there's a fire your first thought should NOT be "what's the most cost-effective way to handle this?", especially when there's a fire extinguisher at the ready.

    I think the highlight for me was eating @Eggcelsior 's Baltimore pit beef, with onions and tiger sauce, on that homemade bread, while drinking @nolabrew 's 10 HR beer.  I could have done that all day long, but everyone else had the same idea and well... civilized people spread the wealth around. ;)

    Here's a great video of the band. I can't seem to figure out how to get it right.

    You can really see his footwork there.  And the fact that I need either more chin, or less neck.
