Hey TCBers,
As for who's going, I'm not really sure, I have had tons of maybes. James
(as in our Biggest Daddyo) is planning on being there with his lovely
girls. And there is talk of other VOSA people attending. Some Austin
Aircoolers say they are in but we are a flaky group. The Woodalls, Mark and
Emily, Christian, Duncan and Cindy and maybe Rebecca and her family have all
said that they are interested.
And to recap the food situation:
As we did last year on Saturday night we are going to do a head count, we
chip in some cash (probably about five bucks) and then make a big fajita
dinner for all that want to join in on the meal.
And again as we did last year on Sunday someone can make a run to Opie's
Barbeque which is less than a mile down the street. And we will feast!
Texas Monthly had it listed in their Top 50 Barbeque places and here's what
they had to say about it:
Restaurant is named for: Owner’s old dog.
The prime rib at Opie’s is so tender you almost feel sorry for it. How will
it protect itself? It lacks the brisket’s seasoned black bark, the baby back
ribs’ sweet, chewy crust, or the all-pork jalapeño sausage’s threatening
heat. The prime rib is defenseless, a perfectly smoked pink prey. Show it
some mercy. Also try the tater tot casserole and the homemade,
bigger-than-a-child’s-head cookies. Sauce is smoked in a pot alongside the
meats, giving it an unusual mesquite-infused bite. J. Silverstein

And I will make a dessert each night in my Dutch ovens to share.
