I think while it would be nice to have it at the lake, to set it up in the time we have left is not practical.

Someone would need to make a drive-though and scout a spot that was big enough or in close proximity to enough parking for everyone. Most of the sites are day-use areas too, so we would need to let the gate know that hoards of Fordies would be passing through.. lol

Lets save that one for when we have 4 months to plan and not a little over a month.

I'm up for suggestions, but right now I'm thinking Scott is right. We can have it at my shop and it won't cost us a dime... plenty of room for trucks.. fishing ect.

Sounds good to me. Compile a list of what you need us to bring and we can start divying up stuff.

I'll start. I volunteer Jeff to bring beans.

Anyone got a nice grill or smoker?

Last time we had it at my place we had smoked pork ribs, but my cheesy smoker has seen better days.. the firebox is pretty much rusted through.

If you really want to host at your place I'm game, just didn't want to invite ourselves over. I'll talk with the boss and see what she'd like to bring. I'm just the official taste tester at our place.

Well, I could put one of the cracked injectors back in my truck if no one steps up with something Don't think the food would taste that great though...

Thanks Dave, I was looking at it yesterday and I might be able to weld or pop-rivet some metal over the holes.. it doesn't have to be pretty..

I was thinking a big ole smoked brisket. What do y'all think?

Lets start getting a role call so we know how many people we can expect and what we are bringing.. I'll get some directions posted up this evening for those of you that haven't been to my house before.

I talked to dave yesterday evening, he is bringing his grill, charcoal and grilling stuff..

So I'm gonna smoke up a brisket the night before.. and we'll re-heat it on the grill or in the oven..

Some other things we may need are (ahem, cough.. Jeff,, cough) beans..... chips, hot dogs, hamburger meat.. buns, ketchup, mustard.. potato salad, cole slaw..ect..

So I'll start this off and like we have done in the past, just reply and add your info..

1. Tojoski, 2 Adults, 2 Kids, Brisket, Broccoli Salad

Well crap, so much for the new guy bringing the root beer (G rated party you understand). Maybe you won't be working next time...like in the fall.

Something else I thought of.. we'll need chairs, folding tables, if anyone has a few of those..

Also as usual, bring drinks for your crew as everyone likes something different. We'll have a few extra coolers if anyone needs the room.
