DukePA plus her buddy Sylvie and her family = 3 adults and 3 children. Mimosa fixins from me plus the dreaded blue tortilla chips and salsa 'cause I like 'em and will take any leftovers home! Sylvie is an amazing cook. I asked her to bring a traditional African dish since she is from Zaire. Hopefully she'll have time to cook :D

(First off, I’m getting this out first and then I’m going back in this thread w/a chainsaw. Didn’t want to waste any time learning “moderation” before I posted the Menu.)

Well, it’s been a long-time coming. Heck it’s been so long since we had anything to cheer about… ;) but, it’s time to rock some Duke Football!

I’ve thought long and hard about what should be my contribution. Given that our first opponent, the recently minted Elon University is such a close neighbor and, the Alma Mater of our beloved Earl Jam, I elected to prepare a dish that honors the proud tradition of Burlington’s finest University- The Elon University Phoenix! Therefore, my menu will be derived from just that- a bird that rises to greatness from ashes!
TNTDevil (+7?)
15lb brine-cured turkey, smoked over walnut.
Wings
Bacon, scallion and caramelized onion dip (&chips)
Fire-roasted salsa
Potato salad
Honey-whole wheat rolls
Super-Nutty Peanut butter cookies.
Of course, beverages de adult, tea (AM, I’m lookin’ at you.) and all my tailgate acouterment. Ready. To. Rock!

Here’s the remainder:
Ozzie- Val’s brisket, rye and white bread and, Bud Light.
CathyCA (+4)- Cookies, brownies or rum cake
Duke PA (+5)- Mimosas, chips & salsa
CB&B (+2)- Corn, ?
Tilly- Po-tay-toes
Shereec- Lemon pound cake
DevilDeac (+1)- Broccoli salad
Duke2Narrow (+1)- Chopped salad, “something” sweet
AllenMurray, WPD (+2)- Cilantro-Lime shrimp and Carrot cake, ABs, sodas, and Tea (Mr. Murray you’ve lived in the South long enough to know… when you say “tea” it means sweetened.) Duh!
Lawgrad91- Oatmeal-raisin cookies
Cheermom- (tentative) Veggie platter, fruit and/or pasta salad

Total attendees (as of 29 Aug.)= 34

Check back often for updates.

Later,
TNT

Awesome news on the bird..I was hoping we'd be doing one long before thanksgiving. Since the brisket and the turkey will take care of the main courses pretty well, I'll take care of the kids and kids at heart with hot dogs to go along with my corn.

The tea will be sweet. Perhaps not home made, but sweet. I prefer Chik-fil-A's slightly lighter tea, whereas wolfpackdevil prefers the overly sweet and somewhat darker version from Bojangles. Since he'll be drinking tea and I'll be drinking other beverages I'll probably let him win this one.

Here's a 8-X for absolutely no reason.

Sorry for the belated posting folks, but it looks like I'll be able to join you all for the Elon game and--hopefully--a few more! I'm trying to persuade my friend, Tom (T '76), to come as well. I'm planning to roll in about four. Not sure what I'll bring other than microbrews at this point. I'm open for suggestions.

Great news.
See TNT's post about 3 above yours. I believe we have the carnivore part of the menu covered.
A pint or 2 of slaw to go with Ozzie's, I mean, Val's brisket?
A small veggie tray?

If you bring a few extra microbrews, CB&B and I always have few extra for trading purposes ;) ;) .

I'd suggest a bottle opener, but I think TNT has that covered too! :happy-bouncyblue:

Of course I'll bring extra microbrews! Would barbecue slaw (vinegar-based) go well with the brisket?

We are cheermom and one more (cheerdad). I will know a little later in the week which of the three I items am bringing. It depends on how much time I have to fix things this week.

I'd say any slaw would be a great with brisket. How about you, Ozzie?

The devildeacs will total 4 so we'll bring extra broccoli salad.
