N Texas BBQ Brethren Bash Saturday April 22, 2017

Yep, you're all invited to N Texas BBQ Brethren Bash Saturday April 22, 2017.
This year it will be at:

Ray Roberts State Park
Isle du Bois Unit
Group Pavilion 2

100 PW 4137
Pilot Point, TX 76258

It is near Pilot Point TX off of FM 455 E. Nice location, great facilities and easy in and out for most of us. There is a large Pavilion with quite a few picnic tables. On site restrooms and running water at the hose bib. You can bring your camp chairs and coolers if you like. (Solo Cups are Needed, this is a State Park!!)

There is a Park Entrance Fee of $7.00 per Adult, 12 and under are free.

If you want to bring your BGE Egg, cabinet smoker, PBC, UDS, or stick burner cooker that's great. If not, we should have space somewhere if you want to bring something to cook.
And if you just want to hang out, possible have a few adult beverages and partake in some great food and Q, well that's OK too.

Looks like I will bring both my BGE MiniMax and R&V Deep Fryer this year. We have Dave Fisk coming in from Florida, SpringRam from Spring TX, Ag 76 from Tyler, Paul from Belton and a few more from out of town.

Just click on the sign up sheet in my Signature Line, on the BBQ Brethren Forum, and let us know who's coming please.

We will be there pretty much all day. Any questions just let us know.
I'm a local and can answer pretty much any question about the area.
Just call or text me, 972-979-0187

So go ahead sign up, bring what you want and we will see you there !!

    We've sure enjoyed the Brethren Bash that's held in the Fall.  Maybe we can make this one next year!

    It is a great place. We have had the N Texas BBQ Brethren Bash here 3-4 times before. Plenty of room for everyone. We try to have a Bash in both the Spring (N Texas area) and in the Fall at Lake Belton.
    Everyone is welcome to come out and have a great time.

    @frognot I just picked up some pineapple so one item you can make will be  grilled pineapple and Caramel Rum.

    Yee haa! Just worked my stretch of night shifts and am now semi-awake and ready for the bash in just two days. Looks like I'm doing Derby Pie, smoked mac and cheese, pig shots and grilled pineapple.

    How some of y'all can join us Saturday!
