Title: Thursday evening boil at Tennessee Classic - Contributions
Post by: MWirwicki on April 19, 2014, 03:28:13 pm
In the last few years, we put together a boil for those who were present and interested in partaking.  This post will serve as the contribution sign-up.

We can use:  poultry, pork, shrimp, crabs, chicken, pheasant, grouse, onions, garlic, celery, cob corn, potates, tomatoes, okra, sausage, garlic, Lawry's, Old Bay Seasoning.  Wild game gives the boil special magic.  Last year we had an abundance and Cracker did a seafood boil and an "other" meats boil.  We'll decide once the ingredients are present how we'll divie it up.

Sign-Up

Wirwicki - Turkey
Gun Doc - Chicken & Potatoes
Pat B - sausage - help
Loope - Garlic & Lemons
Brian & Darla - Shrimp
Pappy - Gator & Taters
DP - Onions & Sausage
Sulfridge - Salt & Old Bay
Bonepile - Corn
BearG - Celery & Shrimp
Stringman - Cabbage & Rolls

Last year was my first time... Would love to contribute this year.  Put me down for some heads of garlic and some lemons (lemons weren't on the list, but I always put them in when I do a boil)

Got it Matt,got more seasoning,mixed fresh taters/salt [ lots] ;) :) more seasoning
and some sausages, Checked the pot yesterday and I really don't know how big,one is very large,over 20 gal. I am sure and the other is about 3/4 that size,it will feed a bunch I assure you. Cracker may chime in but I am almost sure that is what we used last year to keep him from hauling his. :-\ I think we can get by with the ones I have. Cracker going to miss you and not just for the cooking. ;)

Thanks Greg!  It was my first "Boil" ever.  I was a bit nervous, hoping that it turned out as well as I hoped.  Special thanks to BearG who played a big role as the official taste tester.

Thanks to all that contributed in maintaining the tradition of the Thursday Evening Boil.  Without all who provided food contributions and the help slicing and dicing, it would not have been possible.  It was fun to do and even more fun to eat!

Matt
