    Do they only have one camp ground there? I would like to make sure I am reserving a spot in the right place.
    Yes, one large campground.

    If any of you want a cabin, you better hurry up and reserve. Sounds like there are only a couple left at best.

    I have been off the forum for a few days due to traveling south for the winter, first stop was the 8th Annual Minifest in Melbourne FL, it's just like the Butt blast only we take over a small hotel on the beach for 3 days! We have arrived at our winter home Okeechobee FL. Next weekend we will be cooking at the Central Florida Fall Eggfest.

    I was happy to see that Piney came out of the wood of NC and posted something. A bummer to hear about Scott not coming.


    I rode my motorcycle all around West Jefferson this summer looking for you.. not a sign..where where you hiding?? Have a good winter see you and Kay in the spring.

    If you would have asked anyone they would have told ya where I hang out! If you had stopped in at Antiques On Main ya just might have found me working there.

    Just a note that based on the maps you might get the impression that the park is huge. It's actually not that big - the whole thing is pretty walkable.  

    Well, unless you've hard more than your fair share of bourbon slushes.  Then walking very far becomes... interesting.

    Man, me too.. I just bought a bunch of meat at the store and have no clue what to make. BB has been on my mind a lot too. I need to run my idea by you. I don't want it to be too involved though.

    @Jeffroe189 just be sure to specify which section of the campground you want: Deplorables or Non-Deplorables.

    No offense but "I'm going out of town for the weekend to meet some unknown friends I met online at Brisket Camp" sounds much better than, "I'm going out of town for the weekend to meet some unknown friends I met online at Butt Blast"
