Are you by chance going to be at the camp on the 20th? I ask because my son in law is coming down from Auburn and wants to meet you.

I'm unfortunately not going to make it since i'm scheduled to be in Nola 2 weeks after Brisket Camp.  

Wants to meet me?  I feel so special.   ">

He is huge in to photography.

He really likes yours and hapsters work. He is a camera buff himself.

cazzy

I guess I should be honored (or afraid) that you're talking about me.  If I mentioned SGH to the wifey, she'd probably think a baseball player came up with a new PED.   :P

#:-S   You had me nervous for a second.  I just looked outside to see if anyone was sitting on my house.  This forum stuff is serious.  

SGH

@cazzy‌
You would like him. He is into all the camera stuff. He likes hapster, you,BigGreenCraigs pics. He just wondered if any of y'all would be there.

Sounds like a good son in law.  Does he have a Flickr page or anywhere that he shows off his work?

SGH

@cazzy‌
I don't know. Give me a minute and I will call him and ask.

If any of the visiting eggers need a ride to their hotel or the event. I'm available to help get you to and from where ever you need to geaux.  I'm local and know my way around the city. I also know lots of great places to eat and visit if it fits in teh schedule. 

For those of you that have never tasted real Cajun boudin, I plan on bringing some boudin to smoke on the egg. Or I have two eggs at my house that I can cook on before and bring later. My eggs aren't portable, but I don't mind cooking and bringing.

I'm hear to help so don't hesitate to ask. If I can I will...........

SGH

He said he does not have anything online as of yet but will shortly.

Cool.  Well, in case you weren't aware.   @nolaegghead and @eggcelsior are both into photography and good at shooting.  Make sure he picks their brains.

Damn this event pisses me off- only because I can't come.

This sounds like the beginning of an epic new eggfest. I for one vote to make this an annual event.

@nolaegghead no good deed goes unpunished.

SGH

@cazzy‌
I sure will tell him. Thanks.

Tony's boudin is freaking awesome.  It's better than the stuff I usually get and that's from cajun country.  Might be made from lost tourists but tastes so good I don't care.

Damn. I'm going to miss this epic event by 3 weeks or so. Will be in NO in the middle of October for a conference. I for one am looking forward to the pictures and stories that will no doubt be told.

@tulocay - send me a PM when you're in town.  I'll drink a beer or 6 with ya.

Eggcelsior

@nolaegghead are we sticking with Creole, Cajun, or all of the above besides brisket?

@Wolfpack - I'd love to but I'd be sleeping on the couch for at least a month each yea, plus I'm dumping a a lot of cash that I could be investing into death machines for my midlife crisis.

We'll see if this evolves into something.  Might just happen to turn into something bigger than all of us. (as I pipe dream on)

tulocay

@nolaegghead‌ Will do. Looking forward to it.

@Eggcelsior - I think all of the above.  The theme this year will be "I gotta schedule an appointment with my cardiologist about moving up that angioplasty".  

Eggcelsior

When will we do the drag race/burnouts down your street?

nolaegghead

@Eggcelsior - oh no you di idnt. 

I've already tortured my neighborhood enough.  I went on the F800R tonight.  Stopped at the Old Point Bar (next to the event) and the Crown and Anchor.  Trolling for some bad band.  Fun ride, nice and cool.  I'll let you drive the Buddy scooter first and see how you do.  Be-have.

@nolaegghead I have about 5 lbs of Crawfish and pork boudin from Legon's in New iberia and I'll make a run down to Houma and pick up another 10lbs of pork white boudin from Bourgeois ( https://bourgeoismeatmarket.com/ ).

Bourgeois is my favorite. You gonna love it! The boudin is gonna be a big hit. I'm confident in saying it's the best boudin in the world

Check out the link, and see if ya need me to pick up anything else while I'm there.

Nola- no reason you should pay for this or any hopeful future event- setup a paypal account, cash drop box, or even sign saying will work for brisket and I am quite sure our brethren will offset the cost. I know this is something I would pay to attend. I hope everyone has an amazing time- wish I could be there. You are amazing for arranging this event- feel free to sleep on my couch when your better half removes you from your establishment

nolaegghead

@TigerTony - That sounds perfect.  I'll bet a good number of people never had boudin, and the rest never had the real deal.   Thanks very much for doing that!

It my pleasure and besides this could possibly make me the most popular person there.

@nolaegghead Did you ever find a bad band for the event? If not you might check out "Pigpen and the Porkchops" they play some classic rock, blues and southern rock. They are actually pretty good.. I  know the guy on keyboard a little bit. pigpenandtheporkchops.com/

If that don't work Google pigpen and the porkchops  New Orleans
