Look forward to meeting you all, it's a great event and so worth attending if you can get there, make sure you're there next year if you can't and if you've been already, you'd better have saved me some BBQ Cheers Marcus

Bugger! I've never heard of this event before, and dearly wish I could attend. The chile eating competition would be mine!
Have fun!

Thanks for the photo's. It was great to meet up with you yesterday along with Rivergirl......even got to say hello to Dr.Sweetsmoke, but he was up to his elbows in rub most of the time.
It's a shame I couldn't hang around for all the fun......maybe next year.
How did your brother get on in the chillie eating contest (have been following you on twitter). I bet his mouth was red hot yesterday.......I bet something else is even hotter today.
Still on 2 minds wether to just sand and varnish that beautiful piece of walnut from Lesley......seems a shame to burn it.
Terry
p.s....just noticed those bloody annoying adverts haven't been removed for July.....I'm on to it.

I went on saturday and even with the regular bursts of rain it was a great day out with plenty of fantastic food on offer ( a lot of it free ) but unfortunatlyno WFO, there was one smoker with built in pizza stonewhich takes 20min to do a pizza so not really very good, I will keep my garden WFO . A great day out for anybody. Conic Attachments:

well back in England ( passing through from wales 0 then its back to france and I can get online proper !!!!! WOW brilliant day ,fantastic food and great meeting up with some of you !!! not exactly an imoulse purchase because i have been saving for a very long time for a new barbie and got one at the event....................... just hope that it does not sink the boat getting it across to our house !!!!!! Might even enter the event next year ( especially if I could get a good partner ..... whistling and eyes left !!! marcus ) Terry don't worry that chunk will make quite a few planks and it would take a lifetime to burn through !!!!!!!! Seeing the prices on them at the show am wondering how to cut them smoother to flog as rough cut planks. A few of the chefs are dead jealous of you two because that is their wood of choice for smouldering on . Will get back to the forum properly tomorrow absolutely determined to crack the photo thing , plus when i tweak with recipes to write the amounts down as I can never get the same rub or barbie sauce twice !!! Itchng to try my new toy i cannot wait to do bread on it , the only problem was that I did not get a how to book or dvd with it so its going to be a you tube search !!!!!! Guess the good bye france barbie is going to be a humdinger and if I can master bread on it I won't have to worry about smoking my neighbours out with a new build BERT .......
