Yea guys, please plan to come out and just hang out, even if you don't have tickets to the race.  It's always fun to see the crowds and taste the great food we have going out there.

Please let us know if you are planning on coming out to join us so we have a head count.

Also, what ideas do you have for the pre race menu? 

Hope to see you all out there.  ;)

GO MATT KENSETH #17...

Any word on the numbers of people attending and food needed? Wondering about the set up.
It looks like it is going to be hot that weekend. Be sure to bring plenty of sunscreen. >:D

Mark, we are looking at about 20 - 25 people total throughout the day. 

Let me know what is a good day and time to bring the grill out.  If you want me to bring it out earlier than Saturday, that's OK, if just on Saturday, then let me know how early I can get there.

I am thinking about arriving by 9 am.

Still have not determined the menu for the day.

Probably Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Maybe some ribs

Potato Salad

Fatties

Spicy Sausage or Beer Brats.

Any other ideas or suggestions? 

I wish Bear was coming again, I love the ABT's he makes... hint hint Bear....

I was thinking of maybe setting it up on Tuesday. I will have to get out there and see what changes they have done by our spots this year. Every year they seem to make some dumb change. Remember two years ago they moved the fence and put it right on the edge of our spots and then last year they had the bright idea to make parking spots for the store up against the fence. Boy are most Nascar fans terrrible parkers. We spent most of the week pushing the fence that they hit back out of our spots. Rumor has it that they were going to make the fencing permanent and possible 6' high. Hopefully not, sure don't want to feel like we are in jail. If the fence is permanent we will need to get you in there before the last trailer gets into the spot. I will let you know first thing Monday. Would you be able to bring it out Tuesday morning if needed? Also I sure hope Bear is good at taking hints. My brother from Wisconsin will be there and it would be fun to see him cry like a little girl with the ABT's. I will be out there from Monday morning on, so if anyone else is out there feel free to stop by.

Guys,  Thom just called me and unfortunately due to the death of his mother, he will not be able to come out to the race.

He has one RV spot and 6 tickets on the Hill that he would like to see if anyone would like to use.  If you are interested in it, please PM or call Thom and discuss details. 

I know it would be a huge burden off of him.

If you do get his tickets and RV spot, you are more than welcome to come join us for some great BBQ before the race and hang out with us.

Just let me know.

Thanks,

Hey Stitchwerks, being that you are a whinny bowtie boy, you would understand about crying like a little girl. Bring on the ABT's. Looking forward to meeting the AZ Barbeque Crew, and having some good eats. I have have no problem backing the Fords or the driver from Cambridge WI. We will see who "cries like a little girl." Lookin forward to it.

The PETA guy from WI - Go Badgers!

Mark, your brother is calling you out....  ;D  ;D

I love it...

Thom, that's great that Kyle will be out there, make sure he has my phone # and knows where to find us on Saturday.

Directly in front of the Bashas entrance.

What's he bringing to cook?  Want to make sure we have enough out there for everyone.

He only thinks he's calling me out. I am starting to forget what time his plane lands and be honest with you, I don't know if he could find the track without me. So if you see a dejected Wisconsin guy walking towards PIR sometime Tuesday........Run him over, then we'll have plenty to eat all week...........

There is a grocery store there, so he can just pick up something there...

Wish I could join you on Friday, but we have a BBQ Meeting regarding our new Triple Crown BBQ Circuit and I can't miss that meeting.

Hope all goes well for you at the Funeral.  We are keeping you and your family in our prayers..

Mike,
We are not going to have our normal setup this year with all the picnic tables and such. We are going to be in need of chairs and some tables for the folks.  We are looking forward to a fun day on Saturday. Just a reminder to everyone that is coming out that due to the fact that we are out there for the full week, our toliet tanks and sink tanks are usually full by Saturday. Please use the portable toilets that are around. I will try to get one in the spot, but I doubt that I can get my connection to get one out there for us. We are sharing our camp this year with a friend of a friend so we will have to work around them. This is the first year that it isn't all family in our spots. But iit should be a blast anyways. I know Donna is planning on making beans for the feast. Call me tomorrow night so we can arrange when your coming out.

Will do Mark.

Not a problem with the Port a Potties, we can all us them.  They weren't too far away the last few years. 

That's great that Donna is making her beans, those are fantastic.

What is everyone else bringing???

Post by: Mike (AZBarbeque) on April 19, 2007, 10:20:52 am
If you have nothing to do on Saturday, take a ride out and just hang out with us.  We plan on getting out there about 8 or 9 am and firing up the grill.  Planning on eating about 1 or 2 with the main meal, but will probably cook up some ABT's and Fatties before just to get everyone's anticipation built up..

Parking is free, so come on out and just enjoy the NASCAR Experience...

I wouldn't mind ,but that sitting in traffic lineto get in  for 2 hours stinks >:( ! I would have to leave home at about 4am  :o

Post by: Mike (AZBarbeque) on April 19, 2007, 10:34:20 am
Nah, as long as you got there before Noon, I don't think you would have any problem with Traffic.  Then, once the race starts, you won't have any traffic getting out of there.  That's my plan.

Get there by 8 or 9 am and leave about 6 pm while the race is going on.  Come on out...
