The wife and I just returned from Lake Havasu City, AZ where I attended a Big Green Egg & Dizzy Pig BBQ class hosted by fellow eggers Lovehandles & Goose, I want to mention that they are the nicest, greatest people you will ever meet.
The Pit Masters were Chris Capell & Kenny Baker whom most of you know. I can't explain how helpful they were in one setting of this forum. If you ever get a chance to attend one of these classes, please do not turn it down.
I'm sure Lovehandles & Goose will be posting pic's later and I will as well, need time to get them loaded and arranged.

    AZRP,
    I didn't have time to report. On Friday night we were there till about 10:30 p.m. And finished late Saturday afternoon. I will e-mail you later with the details. Was sorry you and Kim couldn't make it. AZ

  • It'd be great to go to that. [p]Just need it to be a little closer to Georgia or Florida to get there. [p]Bet that was a blast!

    It was totally awesome. Chicken in all forms and pieces, turkey, pulled pork, brisket, lamb chops, tuna, pizzas, ribs, and on and on. It was unbelievable. AZ

    <p />Howdy John
    Good meeting you, and thanks for the kind words. Mike's wife made up these cool certificates for everyone, but the class wasn't any offical thing, it was just a thing that came up because Mike asked me to. I have been looking closely at doing some classes in the future, so I thought what the hell. I already have met Mike and some of his good karma buds, so that made the decision easier[p]I agree totally about the people. I met a few dozen folks this weekend and every one of them were class acts. Plus, ChefRD showed up as well. Turns out he lives right there in :ake Havasu City. Mike worked his tail off and it showed. Made me happy to see folks learned so much, but it sure weren't no college :-)[p]Great meeting you and your wife.
    Chris[p]PS, the picture is the guy that REALLY made this happen. Lovehandles (Mike) himself.

    Bubba_T,
    Hey Man, don't let something like that keep you away. I went from AZ to Virginia couple years ago and Chris & Kenny came from Virginia to AZ. Those airplanes just keep flying. See-Yaa

    Nature Boy,
    If I'd have known you were going to put ME on the forum, I woulda let my hair down so the guys can see just how weird I really am. Really Chris & Kenny, you guys were really great and the guys out here that didn't get to go are already talking about next year. See-Yaa---Mike

    Nature Boy,
    Chris, you and Kenny were so much help. For me it was like going in from grade school and coming out with a Phd. And you are absolutely correct about Lovehandles, he put in a lot of hard work along with the rest of the group. Enjoy, AZ
