    My Elfster package arrived today, don't know who to thank, there wasn't a note in the box. Can't wait to try these, we love chilies and the flavors of NM. The package was shipped from Albuquerque. Thank you @cazzy for putting this together and letting is lurkers play.
    This was from me. Sorry I forgot the note. I tried to send a message on the Elfster site. Enjoy and gigem!
    Thanks Plutonium, can't wait to try these. Chillywillis has already commented on the Serrano Apricot  so I know it's going to be good. Sounds like there's another Aggie lurking here.

    The first starts with a Malaysian hot sauce, a Kentucky sauce, an Ohio sauce, a Hawaiian sauce, and another Ohio sauce. The second photo starts with a Thai Chile paste, an Ohio sauce, the rub matching the sauce on the first row, a different Ohio rub, a unique steak seasoning from an Ohio steak house. On the last picture we have a customized hand towel and key chain by his crafty wife, a Kentucky rub, a Hawaiian mustard. An unbelievably diverse sample from all of his favorite places and his wife's talented embroidery to boot. Thank you and it all will be put to good use.

    Dude, you should be out there waiting beside the mailbox to assist with the unload. You know that it may not be handled in the manor in which you feel it should be.....this is your one opportunity to impact the love and care of the package at its final resting spot. Put away the glasses and move from reactive to proactive. Its the right thing to do.

    @northGAcock my company sells steel body armor for police among other things and the company we order it from ships it USPS to me. My post guy hates me. I'll be lucky if he throws it half way down the driveway.

    Special thanks to @Smokin_Troutfor the awesome package of goodness from Michigan!  Your generosity is truly appreciated and the goods have already started being put to use.  I really liked the Billy Bones BBQ sauce and look forward to trying out all the rest.  Thank you very much- this exchange and the timing of it are the pinnacle of the grilling year for me and this was a home run.  

    I especially liked the handmade cutting board from your shop which was truly awesome.  You should have heard me when I came across the cutting board in the box- like a kid on Christmas.  My better half was making fun of me at that point!
     
    Thanks again @Smokin_Trout . What a great score!

    P.S. There was one broken bottle of *i think* fish sauce, but everything was packed so well that there wasn't any collateral damage.  My only reason for mentioning this is so you don't think I left it out of the picture.  It was completely shattered.

    Glad most of it made it in good shape. 
    The board was made by our 16yo son. I though we included a small plastic cup of beeswax and mineral oil mixture. Good to rub on the board a few times a year. 
    Hope you enjoy it.

    Glad you like the variety.  Will be interested to hear what you think of the Lingham's Hot Sauce and the others.  I passed on your compliments to my wife for the embroidery, she has fun with it.
    I will get a new Thai Chili Sauce off to you by ground this weekend, sorry it blew its lid along the way, hope the mess was not too bad, the flavor is fantastic with seafood.
    Hope you like the Jeff Ruby Steak Seasoning, if you make it to the Midwest, his restaurants are actually worth the ridiculous price for the bone in ribeye.

    @Hook_emHornsfan_74 if you mix that Blues Hog and Tennessee Red together you're in for a treat as well. Mixing those two is my favorite BBQ sauce for most pork and chicken. 
    So funny that you say that! That's exactly what I recommended in the letter that I sent with it. 
    Blues Hog is great!

    Had a nice surprise waiting for me in the mailbox today.  Thanks so much @EggMcMic for the awesome care package from Illinois! I haven't had the pleasure of trying any of these products, but am certainly looking forward to it. I was opening the package just as my wife came home from work, and she yelled it's like BBQ Christmas! Thanks again, this was so much fun.

    Just busted open my package from @TN_Sister_State




    Great selection of local flavors and favorites. I have not have any of the rubs or sauces except for the Marie Sharps (which I love) so super excited to try these new flavors out. And love the packaging in the tins as well - wife may even let me keep these out on the counter!


    The Marie Sharp's is my new addiction. I just recently had it and it is now the only hot sauce I use. I haven't had that particular one but the other red one and the green are amazing. Great looking box.
    Cheers,
