caliking

The Cen-Tex Smoker

Foghorn

The Foghorn family including Mrs. Foghorn, Son of Foghorn and 2 Friends of Foghorn will be there - although not for the preparty as work is getting in the way. 

Hotch

Just finished up trial run of our menu items.

The neighbors loved them so we are good to go.

Hoping it dries up for Friday and Saturday!!

@caliking are you bringing the PBR and cooler since @henapple is a no show?

EggObsessed

Count us "IN"!  

Thatgrimguy

Scheduling conflict! I can't make it this year.  Hate that I'm missing it!!

Legume

let the shaming begin

Team Stone is in with a posse. 

Foghorn

The relative lack of activity on this thread is concerning.  Is it just going to be about 5 of us cooking for 500?   Or did this not get advertised as much as previous years such that there won't be as many tasters?

This is what happens when @Mickey plays the "I'm a tired old retired guy" card.

Or am I reading too much into this?

@caliking we may need something stronger than the PBR!!

I'll be there. With my family. Not sure if we're coming in on Friday or not.

I know your joking about Mickey and he deserves a little kick every now and then.lol
The time and effort he has put into this fest in the past was amazing. Mickey had some great help from Spring Chicken and Spring Hen and great support for Toyota and Will from Inn on the Creek for pre and after party. Hats off to you Mickey...

I hear it has not been promoted much and very little happening from the dealer and no incentives at all to promote or motivate the Eggheads cooking for the event. Last year the dealer was even charging cooks for water.lol
I hear things are going to be a little better this year but most is still up in the air. The other Texas Eggfests are really stepping up their game and the new one in Spring Texas this year will also add to the pressure. It would blow their mind if they attended the Athens Texas Eggfest...or at least humble them a bit.

This might turn out to be a nice little Eggfest and not over run by HEATHENS just looking for a free meal for their family.lol
My plan is to relax, visit and catch up with friends and drink the free PBR @caliking is bringing...Ha...Ha
Thought if I sit between the cooler and the Egg he is cooking on I will be set for the weekend.

Travel safe everyone...

I can't speak for everyone else, but Team Stone is planning putting out 150 servings.  Hopefully, I stay out of the hospital this time.

egger ave

We will be there, new location. No web site for the eggfest has made it hard to find for some folks. 30 eggs for cooking I what I was told.

EggObsessed

I know there are many Salado "regulars" that plan on cooking.  They just haven't chimed in yet.  

newby84

Where is it going to be and what time does it start? 

DMW

I won't be there. Go ahead, shame me.

Navymom

We had planned on being there now I'm not sure. We aren't part of the "regulars", but didn't think we were heathens there for free food.

theyolksonyou

@Navymom the regulars are the heathens.

Come eat some free food.  If I have to take any home, I'll be a bit ragey, and no one wants that.

Sorry if I affended you. My statement had nothing to do with being a regular.
You post on this forum so you must have interest in Ceramic cooking. Why would you even jump to such a conclusion about yourself?

WTF?!!? How did I get volunteered to bring the sh!tty beer this time???

I'm sure @henapple has something more important to do... like make out with his cousins.
