Florida Fest Rocks

Borders

A mere 3 months ago, I had no Egg. This weekend I hung out with the best chef's and people you could ask for. Location, a 10. Weather, a 10. Instant buddies-10+! [p]I've never seen anything like this. I've never tasted food all day and still been hungry. What a top notch event for everyone involved. Thank you all from the Borders and Cutcliff families. We all felt like family-and that's cool.[p]Here's the campsite Saturday morning as we prepare to fest[p]
[p]Here's the Freshmen-Cut, Me and Dad-All Fest Virgins-All new Eggers

[p]The Ingram's whippin up sum duck-killer!

[p]Mr and Mrs Wardster(right) Noonies Babe and Noonies Dad left

[p]Wardster's Off THe Hook ABT's. Can you say Stampede?

[p]Mr Hyde @ the Helm. QBabe's impressed(that aint easy) and Porky Paul(left) is learnin'

[p]Me and my gal

[p]"Cut", gathers his thoughts on why he couldn't muster the time to load and bring his Egg. Meanwhile, 4 onlookers can't belive how Cut can gather his thought in the middle of a festival.

[p]The Denny's broke in a sweet new Kamoda with low-n-slow ribs, and Wendy used my small egg for some killer apples.

[p]BobinFla, a Kamodo maestro, cooked more gourmet chow in 24 hours than Fl law allowed. He was arrested, and sentenced to cook at McDonalds for 1 year.

[p]"The trough". Notice "The Recruit" in the middle, with the white hat and green shirt. On his first effort with his new egg, he served up some Jerk Turkey that only a General could cook

Scott,great pictures!The Florida group is on a roll!My keyboard has drool on it again....

QBabe

Scott,[p]We really enjoyed meeting you, Cut and your families! Glad to hear that you all had a great time and that the kids enjoyed their camping adventure![p]Email me if you could please...I'd love to get copies of ALL of your pics for my website, since I never got a single one taken :([p]Were the Thai baby backs yours or Wardsters? Whoever did them do you have a recipe you care to share? Forgive me for not knowing, but so much of the time there was just someone who appeared and said "eat some of this" and it may or may not have been the person who actually cooked it, LOL![p]Tonia
:~)

QBabe, I'll take credit for the Sweet Thai Chili Babybacks. The key was the sauce and I'll post that recipe. It worked out so good, and I still had 3 uncooked racks that were marinating, so I did 'em again last night.[p]I forgot to ask you about a picture on your website. You are grilling a bunch of fresh cayenne peppers. First of all, it's just a cool picture. Second, what were you doing with the peppers?[p]I'll email you all the pics.[p]Scott

QBabe

Borders,[p]Looking forward to the Thai sauce...[p]As far as the peppers go, I smoked them really low (maybe 200° or so on our pizza screens) to infuse some nice smoke flavor into them, and then I dehydrated them (I got one of the American Harvest deyhdrators for Christmas one year and often dry herbs). Once they were dehydrated them, I left them whole and stored them in the freezer until I wanted to use them, then just crunched them up and used them anywhere that a recipe called for cayenne pepper flakes or red pepper flakes. The smokey, roasted flavor that the egg gave them was FANTASTIC![p]Looking forward to the pics...I've got to find a way to get more than 24 hrs into a day for the next Florida Fest so I can find some free time to take a few of my own![p]Tonia
:~)

Spring Chicken

QBabe,
What a great idea. You Louisiana Cookasses out there take note. That has got to add something to every dish that contains cayenne peppers (a staple in Louisiana). And the nice thing about it is that cayenne peppers make you live longer. Everybody knows that.[p]Spring Chicken

Borders,[p]HA! After I explained that the blue tile belonged to my brother, and some other people were cooking on my large cooker, they let me off with only 6 months at Krystal.
I can't take credit for those Super Burger Dogs and that excellent peach and blueberry cobbler/crisp.[p]Great time, Great food and even greater people.[p]BOB
