Mendo Roll call... are you in?

With so much other food coming, I just don't want to go through the trouble of lugging my smoker up there and baby sitting the pork for 10 hours.....maybe another time.

I will think of something else.  I'm thinking kabobs for the grill.

 Why not smoke it at home and bring it to Mendo?  You still have time.
You got us so jazzed about your smoked pork... you might have a lynch mob waiting for you at Mendo if you show up without it !  

hawe want pork we want porky thats not fair we want pork we want pork we want pork we want porkwe want pork we want porkwe want pork

Got some work related challenges scheduled so I can be there. Hope to arrive early Friday afternoon. Will leave early Sunday morning. Have a plane to catch in the afternoon.

Due to the unrelenting taunting by Mooch and others, I will be making a big pot of the now famous HMB chill.

Is there enough room for twenty something tents at this campground?

People are gonna be saying - "Where the hell did all these kayaks come from?!?!"

Gettin' antsy. See you cats on Friday.

OK, ok.  I'll smoke it tomorrow and bring it up.

Glad you can join us Bob.....I'll be bringing a bowl as big as a tire for the HMB Chilli  

My son's second birthday party is saturday, so I'll be drinking beer and grilling short-ribs instead of fishing.  I think my wife realizes that her HAF is kind of low from being cooped up, so I may fish somewhere on sunday.

sorry to hear you can't make it Josh....I was hoping to get a group photo of all the moderators of the NCKA site...

So far, I know these guys will be available for the photo:

Bill
Kevin
ChuckE
Chris / Cpyak
Allen / Pole Pole

me....

I may have to bring my flack jacket.  I may have a difficult time smoking the pork tomorrow.....We shall see.

How many are bringing camp stoves?  I don't have one and we need a way to reheat the pork if I smoke it.  

Crap, I will just have to bite the bullet and do it.

hey, did we ever get gps coordinates for the camp?

Anyone got a camp coffee pot?  Any nearby stores?  Should I just bring the vivarin?

BTW, 30% chance of rain on weather.com.

Bring your rain gear folks.

I will have a camping stove if you need to use it.  One side is a gas burner and the other a grill.

Peeelenty of room for tents!  

Jelly is going to smoke some hamachi tomorrow, goes REAL good with beer!

Last night's thunderstorms have screwed me over. I have to stay home and harvest grapes otherwise the crop will rot on the vine and I will have wasted a year worth of work and have no wine to drink =(.  I am going to sulk now and try to suffer over some salmon fishing.

OK,

Since there is so much food, I bailed on the huge pork smoke, but I did find a nice 5# butt today, and I am putting the overnight rub on now.

I am going to smoke it tomorrow so you will get to sample my famous pulled pork, albiet reheated (actually some claim it is better this way....).

5# of blade in butt translates to around 3# of edible meat and thus about 12 sandwiches which I figure is about right with all the options that people will have.

Good stuff maynard, this is REAL BBQ not that grilly girly stuff!  

Should take around 8 hours on the smoker to come out ok.

You all best appreciate it!

 

I am so fired up for this thing it is ridiculous.
