    Around the first of the year I will be contacting Ceramic Grill Store, Kick Ash Basket and SmokeWare as they have donated for every Butt Blast. Three great company's that have been generous to us Butt Blasters. I'm always looking for new donations so if anyone knows of a company I should contact please feel free to send me contact info.

     JJ George maybe?

    @Kent8621 may be able to help out. Everyone needs a grill torch

    Jim send me message and what you need i will help out with JJGeorge.  still trying to see if i can make it over.  although do bourbon slushies and torches mix?
    Wait a minute, I never knew you were the JJ George guy. Well, I'll be. 
    Matt i am not the guy, however he is a friend local to me here in Alabama that i have gotten to know pretty well.  next year we are going to be doing some more eggfests including hopefully cooking at North Georgia, i do the cooking he talks tables and torches.  

    I gotcha. That's great to have for a friend. Would certainly love having you guys at Butt Blast. 
    thanks matt i appreciate that.  my job doesnt lend itself to alot of planning ahead due to unforeseen travel frequently but if we are available to be there that is the current plan.  
    Could always give notice April 1st. =)
    i am sure my wife who doesnt work would have an opinion on that....

    Alright fellas, I figured I’d throw something out there in case anyone is interested.

    Virginia’s liquor sales are state controlled.  They are running a lottery for Virginia’s bottles of Pappy Van Winkle. I will not be entering to win the 4-pack. Too much coin to justify.

    If anyone is interested in using my entry, I can deliver to Butt Blast.  PM me and we can figure it out.

    I'm bringing along my 22' Blackstone and want to help out wherever I can.
    Register as a cook if you want!  
    I'm riding solo and this is my cherry popper for egg fests/butt blasts so I don't feel comfortable coming out of the gate cooking for a crowd.  BUT I'm more than happy to help out where ever I can.  I'm a good sous-chef and can provide protein, tools...etc. I will have more food than I can eat and will share with anyone but wouldn't even know where to start as a registered cook.  Have I made enough excuses yet?!?!
    Our time at BB 1 was our first and we turned into sous chef/helpers. For a F’ing NC fan and Dook fan.  That’s messed up on so many levels.  You’ll fit right in brother. 

    Yeah right.  I couldn't fart straight without Brent being right behind me to sniff.  After I signed his shirts and all, we finally got some cooking done.

    I seem to recall Wes Johnson using this same gif a few weeks ago. Could be coincidence, or not...

    It's been 18 days, this needed a bump anyway.

    Is the Friday night schedule finalized yet?  Could we include some of this?  Maybe this is more of a Saturday activity.

    Pretty sure this forum has helped drive the success of the A-maze-n products to some degree. Would it not make sense to give them a holler?

    I sure wish I could attend and meet some of you fine folks.  Unfortunately, this is the worst weekend of the year for me the with the 15th (tax day) on the Monday following.  But you never know - maybe things will fall in place, but it will have to be a game day decision.

    @mEGG_My_Day with the government shutdown tax season is most likely going to be delayed and extended.  Chances are it will be well past April 15th and you can make it.
