It has officially started! The first ones here are Dee, his son in law Brad, Pam,
Don (IR2DUM), Cliff (TentHunter), my step son John and of course Moi! Here are
just a few photos of the area and dinner tonight. I Sous Vide Chicken breasts
and Dee furnished a flank steak for fajitas. My son John cooked the flank steak
on my Old Smokey to perfection!

Work schedule permitting, the wife and I may drive out for a while on Saturday. Would love to meet some of the group. We are not that far away in McDonough, GA (it's only a 2 hour drive).
Now the question is what to bring???? (that transports easily)

We look forward to seeing you Saturday. You don't have to bring anything. We have enough food to go around several times. You might want to bring a couple of lawn chairs. Look forward to meeting you and your wife.

Looks like a lot of fun. I was going to do a drive on Sunday and back on Monday but now I have the AC guy coming out on Monday to fix my coil. Good thing I already had Monday leave approved. It seems that something is always bad about this week. It always falls on my BDay and I share that with kids so I thought Sunday would be open but now I have the AC thing.

Thanks for sharing the wonderful pics, I have really enjoyed following this thread.

Looks like good friends and good food...Was Rec Tec a sponsor?
Rec Tec is a solid supporter of the Fall Gathering. They have been a sponsor for the last 3 years.
-
I didn't list Rec Tec on the post with the sponsors as I had already posted a couple of pictures with their grills in earlier posts. They definitely are one of our sponsors. I will edit that post and insert their photo there.
OTHER POST EDITED TO INCLUDE REC TEC!

Looks like mandatory elastic waist pants.
The chow looks excellent. Tell Tent I would like to hear more about that ham. Really loved the look of it.
-
Looks like an outstanding time. When we doing one on the west coast
-
Pap...the word that comes to mind about the ham is ....AWESOME!!!!!! :D
it is from his recipe in the Charcuterie section. I think he calls it a simple brine. Salt brown sugar and sodium nitrite. Fantastic......

Get cracking on that guys! You guys on the West Coast pick a location based on something a bunch of you can get to and will not cost an arm and leg to use.....It is fun
-
Well, sorry we did not make it this year. Had to work, but will take another shot at it next year. Looks like some great food and company!!!!
-
I never thought I would see a sight worse than Tee's legs in his shorts until I saw Dee in his shorts. The food looks really good though.
-
Awesom looking spread of food, the shrimp really got me salivating like Pavlov's dogs. ;)
-
I got through the pics of Conecuh sausage, cheesecakes, ribs, pizza, etc. and was doing just fine until you posted photos of Cliff's ham and Pam's gravy. My culinary memory kicked in and now I hate all of you. Thanks a lot.
-
I agree Turtle and I've never tasted either
-
I don't think anyone is eating any better than all of you right now!!! Wonderful food!!! Don
-
INCREDIBLE FOODS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
You guys are eating great!

After spending the last few days eating a "Super-Sized Atkins Diet" with little to no carbs (the cheese, pizza dough and mini-cheesecakes don't count), it is time to get back to reality, right after I finish this drink.

everything looks great and that is what I call a boil.
-
What a feast!!
Just what you'd expect at this place.
Somebody really pulled a fast one, though...they snuck in some veggies on the pizzas. I wonder how that happened? I guess a FEW veggies can't hurt - just don't overdo it.

Looking forward to the tofu dishes???
-
Looks I will be having a diet of "Pine Floats" for some time ......
A toothpick - and a glass of water.....

Looking forward to the tofu dishes???
I'm still waiting for the salads with grilled skinless chicken breast. ::) :P

We could have all done with a "balance" of those items...but this week was not about that :D I think I will be eating a lot of "leafy greens" and fruits for the next few weeks..... ;D

This will fix you up

Yeah...I have already doubled up on "dietary fiber" (READ: sticks and twigs...), installed a seat belt on the "throne"...a 4" thick foam rubber pad on the ceiling above it, and bought a crash helmet....the latter 2 items are in case the seat belt fails..... ;D ??? ::)

I just got back home about 5:30 A.M. this morning and WOW, what a great time I had!
I got to see and hang with the gang. I got to meet Old Dave, his lovely wife Jan, and their Dachshund, Barney (what a great little guy). I got to do my share of cooking, and even with my food allergies/sensitivities... I still ate WAY MORE than enough!
Just a few food highlights for me where:
- Mike's pulled pork. OH MY WORD... I kid you not, it was fan-freaking-tastic!!!
- Pam's Greek Pasta Salad: Now I am NOT a pasta salad fan, but she made me a bowlful, I took one or two bites... and couldn't stop eating it. It was the best pasta salad I have ever had!
- Tommy's baked steak & potatoes - this just flat out tasted good!
- Terry & Chris' grilled Big Red shrimp - These things were huge and almost lobster-like. Some of the best shrimp I have ever eaten.
Dee, Thank you, sir, for putting this together again this year. You are a true gentleman!
Mike, Thank you for all your endless work taking the many, many photos and posting live updates as things unfolded.
Don, Thanks for being our unofficial videographer once again. I can't wait to see the video.
And thanks to everyone who was there, for the great time!

Another nice get together with good friends and food.
Nice

Thank you for inviting me and letting me hang out and sample everything! Big special thanks to Jan and Dave for not beating me with one of the 12 rib bones that I devoured, BEST RIBS ever! Had a great time with everyone, especially having the opportunity to hang out with my Father in Law Dee for a week, that alone is everything, he truly is the greatest and I am fortunate to be able to call him my father in law! It was great to be able to hang out longer than a few hours this go around and spend time with Don, loved your brisket and talks, keep the chair, LOL, Mike and son John, loved all of the food and the pics are incredible, Pam, goes without saying just awesome! Cliff, incredible how much information one man knows, thanks for the tutorial on the MAK! Terry and Chris, the Oysters and Boil were just plain awesome and I enjoyed talking with Chris about cooking, Tim - I really enjoyed talking with you and beyond the cooking, really great to just talk about food(Flat Iron Steaks incredible), grills and ... Art I am glad that you didn't forget to bring me my cheesecake bites and it was great to fire up our UUNI's and bake some pizzas! Tommy I am very glad that you were able to make it out and be here I know its tough but I really enjoyed seeing you again and the dishes were awesome, I need some more of those beans, real soon!

Looks like an outstanding time. When we doing one on the west coast
I'm in.... I realize I'm still a newbie here, but let's see if we can pull something together on the west coast for next year !

Brad, it was great getting to meet you this year. I can see why Dee is proud to call you his Son in Law!
Those pizzas were great. Thanks to both you and Art for bringing your Unis!

Looks like an absolutely awesome time was had by all. One of these years I will make it out. Any time y'all want to move this gathering to North Texas though... :D

Don't wait to come to the Fall Gathering in Augusta, plan one for TX. You will probably have quite a few people show up for that. I know I am always up for a road trip. Tee, how long will it take you to pack?

Without mentioning any site names (though there are quite a few of us who frequent both this site and that one)... We have a North Texas "bash" scheduled for October 18th. You can sleep on my living room floor if you come. :D

Brad expressed his thoughts beautifully on last week's Fall Gathering and I concur exactly. I enjoyed spending a lot of time with everyone. I think this Gathering was the best yet, but they do get better and better every year. A big thank you to Dee for making this week happen....and I was really impressed by Dee's seminar on photo composition and posting.
I took a couple hours of video. I need to edit this down to a usable end product and especially edit out the people who threatened to sue me if I showed their faces (you know who you are and I am scared enough to honor your wishes). I am still not home yet and won't get there until next week so it will be a couple weeks before I post the video. Hope that y'all can wait.
I am going to try to meet up with RAD and Terry again this weekend on my back home....and I'll have lunch with Dee this Friday. Can't wait.
I hope we can count on you editing out certain ..."noises" that seemed to Pravin after a steady diet of meat and nothing else for most of a week.... ??? ::)
-
I can only echo what Brad has said! This was one fantastic week! I know that my son John, who is normally sort of introverted, did
not stay that way too long. And I didn't have to look very far to find him. Seems wherever the food was cooking that where you would find
him. 8) He especially liked hanging with Old Dave, Jan and Barney. He is anxious to try some of the techniques that Old Dave taught him. Thank you
Dee for putting this together once again. And I am open to road trips now since I am happily retired! ;)

I would like to thank Dee and his helpers and all the sponsors for making this Gathering such a great event. We had great weather, great food, held at a beautiful facility, attended by many wonderful people, and it just made for a wonderful short week of fun and enjoyment for Jan, Barney, and Myself.
We saw some old friends, made some new friends, missed some friends, but sure had a great time getting back with the Gathering group.
I learned some new skills and tried to share some skills with the folks at the event. Sure is fun to cook for people that really appreciate most of the food I cook.
This group has many wonderful cooks and everything I sampled was just great.
There was so much to eat and I didn’t get to sample everything as I was just plain stuffed for the full 4 days I spent at the event. All the food was outstanding.
Thank you folks for making our visit so enjoyable and we sure hope to come back again.
Dave, Jan, & Barney

You don't need to wait for a gathering Tim. You know where to find me.

I want to thank everyone for the kind comments but all I did was open the gate and say "Y'all come on in!"
I can't say enough about how I really appreciate the effort in time and expense that the folks made to get here. I know it's not easy and was certainly a financial strain for some. I don't have the vocabulary or ability to put into words how much your attendance meant. Anything I do pales in comparison to what y'all did.
The quality of people was outstanding and that always makes such a great Gathering.
The support given by RecTec, Amazn Smokers, and Cooking Pellets was fantastic. They went way, way beyond what was asked. Please, please, send them an email and thank them and support them by buying their products.
We have already did some talking about what to do for next year. When Brad had his restaurant he cooked a fabulous Wild Boar Ragout and he has agreed to do that next year on the RecTec. Terry is going to bring his La Cha Chia (or however you spell that aluminum lined plywood box) and we'll do a whole hog in it.
There is some talk about having people tell what they want to cook and maybe have a cook off or something like that. That's something we'll all look at. My experience has been trying to organize this herd of cats ain't easy but I guess it can be done.
We'll do it next year around the same time. It may vary a week or so but we'll do it again.
-
Dee, next years Gathering will be the 5th annual Gathering. I believe it will be special with Brad's wild boar ragout and the la chia pet whole hog. A few throw downs and it will be a fitting 5th anniversary celebration. I can't wait until we can do it again next year.
-
I would like to send a special Thank you to all my boys, you all know who you are...all of you. Thanks for being so kind and helpful. Didn't meet anyone new members, but really like Chris (tlg) son and John, High on smoke) son. Very nice polite young men. Welcome back Jan, Dave and Barney..it was good to see you again. The gathering was fabulous for me, I made a few things the boys liked and did tons of dishes. We got'r done, and can't wait until the 5th Gathering. Cya next year, only 356 days if the calendar is right. Pam .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

I want to thank everyone who participated and made a great thread!!

I promised a video of the Gathering and here it is. I didn't capture every moment but this is an example of the fun and cameraderie we experienced over the course of the week. Just simply a diary of what happened in the woods at Clark's Hill Lakes with a bunch of outdoor cooking friends on this forum. Hope that you enjoy it. And for the person that threatened to sue me if she appeared in the video, I decided to take my lumps because she is an integral part of this Gathering and we couldn't leave her out.

Yeah...I hear that Alabama fans suffer from an identity crisis....maybe it stem from having a team name that equated to an oceanic bacterial bloom (red tide) and a mascot that has nothing to do with the team name ( an elephant...?)
So, the persuant confusion, combined with inability to tell who you are seems appropriate.... :D :D :D

I finally watched the video and if I attended I would be like my Lab (Dog). He is a stomach with a mouth, which all LAB owners know. I would have eaten myself to death, with all that good food. How did you guys and girls handle all this good food?

What type of smoker is that cooking the pizzas about 27 mins into the video?

Those are the Unni which are made in England. Them that got 'em like 'em. They cost about $299. I think their website is Unni.com. Dee
