Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

Hi!

We have a great barbeque place here in Emory! I can bring some of that... Do we have an estimated head count?

Carol

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

I've got about 30 counted so far as a head count goes but we might nave a few mroe show up if things work out for them so I am gonna say figure 35

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

Ok, sounds good! Now I haave to visit the trade thread...LOL I am getting excited about this!

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

super Carol I am too ...just a lil over a month away now

Kemp, TX(Zone 8a)

Phyllis... could you post the swap thread link here... I've lost it somehow.

YOO HOO... bbq from Emory... I know that place, it's goooood bbq...
My parents lived in Emory for 20+ years... and I lived there for a while myself, moved away 6 years years ago.

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

bbq sounds real good!

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

hey BJ! Iv'e been in Emory 28 years. I may have known your parents as I worked at a bank here... I may have even known you!!! Knew a lot of people at one time. Not anymore though. Lost touch when I went to work in Greenville, and now I am retired! Yeah!!!!

(Becky) Colmesneil, TX(Zone 8b)

oohhh.. yardqueen..I am really wanting to meet the gal that brings BBQ!!!..LOL... but that would cost a fortune to feed all of us.. just bring a small amount ( I'll make sure I am first in line..LOL)

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

I will be willing to pay, for a plate of good BBQ!!!
We had a Rudy's open here this summer, and everyone just raves at how good they are, but I don't think they are that good. I will just keep eating my hubbies grilled ribs and rib eyes!
Linda Kay

Kemp, TX(Zone 8a)

Which Bank, Carol? Mom and Dad banked at First Bank of Emory, and I had an account there too... right across from the square... I bet we've passed on the street at least...

Gilmer, TX

I'd sure be willing to chip in on that BBQ.

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

BJ, I worked at the "competition".... 1st Modern Savings aka Sunbelt Savings aka Bank of America... 1980-1994 during the Savings & Loan crisis or scandals or whatever you want to call it! Did you go to schoool at Rains?

Cat... And anyone else who wants to do this... It is an idea anyway. We could decide what we want and how much we need and I can price it and whoever wants to can help with the cost... its just an idea. Not everyone will want to I am sure and some may not even want BBQ

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

well we can plan on BBQ and then have the hot dogs as a option for anyone not wanting BBQ

Kemp, TX(Zone 8a)

Carol... No, I didn't go to school there, but my kids did for a little while in Elementary... long time before they built the new one.

Count me in on my part of the bbq...

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

I will chip in on BBQ too...for sure

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

So when we find out how many want to chip in and what all we would like, (Beef, Ham, Potato salad, coleslaw...) then we try to see a current headcount... and go from there!

I am going to list the people who have said they want to go in on the BBQ:

CatLady
Mibus2
Darkmoondreamer
Bjwilson

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

Taters, did you mean that you want to go in also?

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

Also, I think that the others that are bringing a dish can do that instead of going in on the BBQ. Also whoever bings the plates, cups, forks, etc. and other condiments...

What do ya'll think?

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

Sounds good, I would just concentrate on the meat if it were me. There will be plenty of sides I think, or there were last time.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

I'll go post a reminder for the food thread on the other ETRU threads to get everyone over here to put in their wishes.

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

Darkmoondreamer (what do we call you for short... LOL), did you mean we just need the meat from the BBQ? That is fine by me... Also some may want to just put it on a bun with chips, etc

(Becky) Colmesneil, TX(Zone 8b)

If everyone wants BBQ... I don't have to bring the hot dogs..LOL I'd rather have BBQ any day..

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

yard queen why don't you find out what it would cost for BBQ for say 35-40 people and let us know that might help others say what they want to do then too

(Linda Kay) Amarill, TX(Zone 7a)

Please count me in for the bbq!
Linda Kay

(Karen) Frankston, TX(Zone 8a)

YardQueen, my name is Karen, LOL! You can call me any thing you want, but don't call me late for supper, haha!

Yes, I was just thinking out loud, but I would think the meat and maybe buns would be the most important, as so many people bring side dishes, but I may be wrong. Let's see what everyone says ☺

Emory, TX(Zone 8a)

Ok. but I can't call them till Wed. They are only open Wed-Sat. So if we are doing buns, will we want chopped beef? His is REALLY good and not fatty or gristly. He doesn't use scraps for it. He uses the same meat as sliced beef.

(Becky) Colmesneil, TX(Zone 8b)

That sounds great!!.. I don't like the fat anyway..LOL

Buffalo, TX(Zone 8b)

I'm bringing sweet tea and whatever else seems to be needed by the time we get really close.

I can bring anything, I will be at cat's place so anything that can be purchased I can bring. Just give me a holler at what you want me to bring. i can pitch in on the b-bq also, i dont eat much and it will be only me.

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

ok so before I edit the food list above we will wait and see on the BBQ price then and once we gt that we can go from there and I will edit what is above to reflect what we are doing and who's is bringing what then so we know what needs to be filled in.....there is a BBQ place on the way to the park too that I can call and ask pricing too if need be

(Tia) Norman, OK(Zone 7a)

sounds like a plan

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

mmmm we have mor ethen the ones posted here coming need to either dmail ro holler at them to find out their thoughts too
I was thinkin maybe tater salad to go wtih BBQ? or should I consider beans instead?

(Tia) Norman, OK(Zone 7a)

What about crock pots to keep the food warm, will there be a place we can plug them into????

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

umm I think there is will have to check

oh and by beans I was meaning like brown beans not baked ones or brown beans and rice I think is the ting down hereLOL
