    If James Brown was the hardest worker in Showbiz, These two, a great cooking team, very cool folks, are always taking it up a notch at Butt Blast. They make it fun.

    If there ever was a BGE cooking tag team, like in wrestling, these folks would be the undisputed world champions.

    So true but we let Brent do all the work, we only tagged in for the fun! Nichole was behind the camera telling Brent what to do next!

    Every once in a while, you stumble across folks that have together, wired tight. Absolutely two of the best. Fun, cool, and makes the event as great as it can be.

    Yes they are a joy to have around, who doesn't LOVE Hippies!

    Everytime I see this picture, for some reason, The song by The Doors, "People are Strange" seems to come to mind. 
    I dunno. Life is better with all our friends we have made with the BGE forum and events.

    If there is a better place to be than the Saturday in April at Butt Blast III, I want to know it. Fantastic folks, great food, wonderful environment, and a massive amount of fun.
    Can’t wait to see the pup.....well all y’all actually.

    This guy’s cup is almost empty. A good lady would have that thing topped off. Appreciate the trip down memory lane Ron. With this one possiable exception....spot on commentary. And sure.....go ahead and use one of those hard to spell words to describe your brain.....

    Us too @Jupiter Jim
    We have a few more vacations planned for the year, and for several reasons we were thinking of skipping BBII since the world is a big place and we want to see it all. But then my wife and I discussed it more. We took time from another trip, reallocated the days, took some FF miles and applied it to this trip because it is so fun. So we are booked!

    Great cook, Great dad, Great baseball coach, Great husband to his beautiful wife, has outstanding lawn service, and a unique way to clean his cooking grate. Oh yeah, almost forgot, a Great friend. His recipe for Hormel Chili, I am told, was exceptional, and his wings were pretty good too, not first place, but pretty good. Glad he was not bitter.
    I am hearing some rumblings that Jason may be choosing baseball over Butt Blast this year. Perhaps he is bitter once again? 

    Ron, you left out that he is one of the fastest race car drivers, specially when he hits the NC line. NASCAR future for sure.

    Wouldn't be the same without Jason's outgoing, gregarious personality.  Screw baseball.  Great trip down memory lane @YukonRon, thank you.

    Also folks, let’s not forget that you learn things here too!

    Here is @JRWhitee learning that there is not really an option to have an invisible, weightless top on an egg. Someone was letting him know when this picture was taken. You can see he is listening as they are telling him right when he was putting the “lid” down. 


    People are nice, they brought him the real top back. 
    And even reinstalled it for him.

    Lol, @Sea2Ski , those were awesome.  I was looking for someone not long ago that had some shots of that event.  

    Man, what a night.
