Socal bbq/herf 8/22

j0z3rj0z3r Posts: 9,403 ✭✭
Ok fellas, it is about that time for another herf and Jason has volunteered his backyard, pool and grill for the next bbq and herf. Since we are talking about a sunday, we figured a 1pm start time would be a little better. Plans are to grill carne asada early for lunch and throw a couple birds on to slow cook for the evening time, I will be brining the chickens 24 hours in advance and they will be good.

So sound off if you are coming and put down what you plan to bring so we don't get several people bringing the same thing. I will be bringing the birds and will probably whip up some of my black bean chipotle dip. Let's see if we can't do one better than last time.

And if you guys want I can bring mojito fixins as well, nothing like a nice mojito on a hot August day.

    I'm coming and need advice on what to bring. Without any direction that might end up being a bottle of Milagro Silver, but I'm willing to take direction.

    We will be in Menifee which is in Riverside county...probably a good drive for you but you're.more than welcome to join us any time.

    Jason, 7-8 pounds seems like an awful lot especially if we are going to make chicken for later. Up to you if you want to get that much of course, I'm sure it won't go to waste.

    Russ, maybe we can designate you as soda and chip guy. We have Tim taking care of plates and assorted tableware, probably cups too. And Jason can get the meat and we can just divvy up the cost of that between 3-4 guys since it is the single most expensive item. Am I missing anything?

    haha, definitely. If not now, in September we need a cigar.com presence at the herf to commemorate the one year anniversary of the longest running, organized cigar.com herf. Alex, Tim...??? Wink [;)]

    Sure thing. Any idea on quantities or the amount of people going to be there?

    last time we had eight people, hard to say for sure how many this time, but eight is a reasonable guess. So whatever will work, worst case we either have extra or have to go down the road to the store.
  • Dammit, I've got my kids birthday this weekend. I'm gonna miss it again ! I will make one of these I promise.

    We should be getting together again on Sept.11th to commemorate a year of monthly herfing. Hope you can make it down. And if there was one herf for Vinny to attend, this would be the one. *hint hint Vinny.* ;)

    Just started the hamhocks on a slow simmer to make the stock for the beans... after simmering 16 hours the hamhocks will have given every bit of flavor to the stock... will soak the beans overnight and add the finished stock, meat and other spices in the am for a 4 to 5 hour simmer. The wheels are in motion!
  • leonardleonard Posts: 359
    Dam Tim those beans sound good! If they are near as good as your salsa they will be the bomb!
  • pool water is at 86, gona be perfect for tomorrow afternoon! were gona be hurtin for certain with all the good food!
