Dear Ozzie4Duke, You are an angel from heaven. Con tu permiso, I shall savor a bite or two of that Beatific Brisket without guilt. Or, with less guilt than my ontological need to sink my choppers into that danged Brisket. We are all on a journey, some on a less linear journey than others. See you to...

The brisket is done after 13 hours under the hood of the smoker.

I keep staring at that Brisket. I cannot not stare at it. As a vegan, if I took just two bites of it, would that make me a bad person?

Dear Fellow and Sister Dukies,

Hope is on the way!

Please be advised that I plan on bringing an alternate slate of electors who will determine the final score if the preliminary score emanating from the field is adjudged to be unfavorable.

So, no worries! Go Duke!

Dear CB&B,

Momentous occasion and marvelous menu!

I will be there, along with five peeps: a friend and his family.

For dessert land, I plan to bring dear wife's Iced Lemon Cake.

Thank you!

Ted aka hustleplays

Hello CB&B!

I will be there, Lord willin' and the creeks don't rise too much.

For dessert, I will bring my Dear Wife's Baked Iced Lemon Cake.

Thank you!

Weather and random gossip thread.

Caught this picture of our own CB&B from the ESPN telecast! Should be archived.

Dear CB&B,
With sadness, I report that I will not be able to tailgate this week. I have a medical appointment that interferes.
Thank you as always for curating these marvelous events.
Ted aka Hustleplays

I'll be there, and I hope that some Baked Iced Lemon Cake can provide some encouragement for our fans.

The fact that the loss really hurts is a testament to how far this program has come. I was so proud of our team tonight. A great game -- heartbreaking result, but so much heart went into going toe-to-toe with a top team. Terrific comeback from 10-0. I'm still a little grouchy about our guys not see...

Duke Football posted a pic of the Gameday location. Right after I set up tailgate, I'm walking over for some pics. DukeChapel.jpg My Dear Wife, of Baked Iced Lemon Cake fame, insisted that I raise a singularly shout out sign on Game Day. Any ideas? Any of you who submit winning entries will be duly...

August West. Party of one. All the usual suspects and maybe some Irish whiskey.

Hi August, Some Irish Whisky? Please don't toy with my emojis, I mean emotions! Would you be interested in my countering with any Scottish whiskys? Game on!

Yo Chris, Thank you for already planning for this terrific event! The joint will be hopping! I will be there and will bring my Dear Wife's Baked Iced Lemon Cake Almost Good Enuf to Steal btw, A Costco executive friend, great person, but, alas, a devout ND alum, may be coming to the game. Conceal tho...

Most of y'all missed this moment. We were sitting under the shady tent, watching the game. Well everyone else was, it was halftime and I was falling asleep in my chair, when a commotion wakes me up. Someone stole the rum cake!!! Not just a slice, but the whole damn cake! Our tent member Kim saw thi...

A late thanks again to CB&B for his culinary choices and presentation yesterday along with his grilling skills and hard work!! Totally delicious -- the entire spread -- the coleslaw, potato salad, etc. ! I asked Chris how he seasoned the burgers -- they were so delicious! He told me that the season...

The “mostly sunny” forecast is nice to read. Monsoon rains did not drive me out of the stadium but I’ve no desire for an encore. There were at least 4 dry, empty seats in section 28 very near August West. He/we'd have been delighted had you and your lovely family joined us. :ymhug: A Navy man never...

While we will likely attend the game, we have some obligations in Raleigh that mean we may not make it to Durham until close to game time, and miss tailgate.

If we manage to make it, will bring cash.

Yo, there's PayPal for sending the cash in any event.

Double devildeacs will attend with beers to share/trade and some freshly printed Jacksons. A side or dessert is under discussion. Not to put a too fine point on it, but...a side or dessert is under discussion?...like the refs interminably looking under that magical tent that reminds me of viewing l...

#:-s We'll be there and will figure out something to add to the $$ and beers we'll bring. @hustleplays-funny stuff with the dessert now please translate that mouth-watering item to some redneck English, please. :ymhug: @hustleplays-and please don't bring any Italian beers; not worth the $$ or effort...
