No tip when you work for family members :(
« Reply #-1 on: March 27, 2013, 06:56:52 PM »
found that out the hard way.  so my son (who has moved back into our house  :'( ) just got a raise to manager of a electronics store.  sunday was his 1st inventory.  its a big deal.  3 other store managers come over along w/ his employees.  normally they just get straw hat pizza (icky).  so my son ask if I could cook some bbq for everyone on sunday night.  he hands me a few twenties and ask if that will do it.  nope.  going to need a couple more.  ok, I now got $80 and going to the bev mo (can't cook bbq w/out a stogie and a FT).  then to Costco for food.

okie dokie.  got a Davidoff 2000 and a six pack of FT.  were good to cook now. 

I started a butt the night before for myself so I will give this one to my son.  frozen solid (thinking of STC).





morning time. 



tasty.  added some stuff and wrapped up for pulling later.



oh ya, pulling time.  it looks yummy.



rib time.



onto a mak and away we go.



looking good so far.



2 racks got some FL.



nice color coming out of FL.



close to being done.



this should work.





got two maks so might as well cook some abt's









smoke......



nothing wrong w/ this picture.  a whole pan of abt's.  almost brings a tear to your eyes.



fired up the electric cambro for travel time.



everyone really, really liked it. 



NO TIP.  don't work for family.  they don't tip at all.

When did you get the second 1 star?

well, I ended up selling my mak 2 star and the two 1 stars I had by accident.  so I got another 1 star from my local dealer.  one of the 1 stars I sold was brought back to me from the guy who bought it because his wife said he only used it twice in 6 months or so and he went out and bought a $3k gas grill.  his wife was pissed.  made him bring the mak back to me and I didn't have to give him any money for it.  cool huh.

Nice bunch-o-BBQ there Sparky!

After eating all that, I bet the only tip they could do was tipping over! ;)
