If you guys are bringing that much meat, should I rethink the ribs and just bring more side dishes instead?

seabee · 10-02-2011, 06:44 AM

Well, Joe, I guess the liver is out...perhaps in the spring...along with the baked lima supreme.

Go to the Brinkmann website for recipes.

It says a 10 lb brisket will take about 8 hours, but probably a little less if you like it rare or med. rare. Plan on using one large bag of charcoal (15 - 18lbs.).

I get wood chips at Lowes. Bass Pro or Cabelas has them also. You can also order them from Brinkmann.

Anaro - not knowing how big of a pork roast or brisket, it's hard to answer your question. I suspect we'll have enough meat, but it will all be smoked. Some folks might not like smoked meats. I am planning on a 16 lb. turkey if I can find one, but at least 12 lbs.

This is gonna be GREAT!Edited by: RKamperRV

Alright, I will still bring the ribs. After all if there isn't enough sides, we can always eat more meat!Edited by: anaro

Just talked to Candy Noon...Ralph had a pacemaker installed today.
Needless to say, they will not make the rally.
thay conveyed "howdy".

RKamperRV · 10-07-2011, 04:55 AM

One week from today I should be there and set up. Let's get ready to SMOKE!

anaro · 10-07-2011, 12:41 PM

They are currently calling for rain on thursday but the rest of the weekend looks like perfect camping weather!!!!

Silverbacknoons · 10-07-2011, 11:37 PM

Sure sounds like it's going to be a great Rally with the Mason-Dixon Bunch. Be safe on travels, have fun, eat plenty and Howdy to all.

Hope to catch you all next year!

By the way Ralph had the pacemaker/defibulator installed, is in sync for a change and hoping to come home today, so it's a good day and a beautiful one!

sure, sure, Frank.....just thought you were being "nosey", hence the frivolity.
Mea Culpa.....did not realize you were haveing brake issues.
Hopefully, a solution is in the making.
"hello" to Janet.

fhenn · 10-08-2011, 11:58 PM

Yep I have had it since it came out of the shop. Missed three and half months of good camping because of the issue

sleepyT · 10-09-2011, 01:37 AM

Stan when you left Gettysburg this past spring did you take Route 30 West to 81 and if so are there any steep grades between Gettysburg and 81? I am thinking of taking Route30 instead of going through Harrisburg

seabee · 10-09-2011, 06:31 AM

Tom,
take Rte 30 to Gettysburg; Rte 15 South to Federick MD , keep on Rte 15 west/ Rte 340 south through Harpers Ferry to Rte 7to winchester VA., to Rte 81 southto New Market exit, [exit 264]. check your atlas to get an idea.
any time I go south on Rte 81, this is how I go from York. The only hill is into Harpers Ferry.
I plan on leaving York about 10 AM Thursday...takes about 2 1/2 - 3 hours from here.
