Memphis in 12

Spread the love


I am getting excited about the seminar in Memphis. Just 12 more days and will be there teaching students at the open house. I am looking forward to seeing old friends and making new friends. Teaching new students. Tweaking old students. And enjoying that Memphis barbecue.

Gold finger you are correct–it will be great fun. By the way are you buying the BBQ?????

If Goldfinger is buying count me in also.

I’ll throw dice for lunch. Shortest hand buys. I’ll have a full rack of baby backs.

I’m in, Bet Doc’s afraid. 😆

Since Doc has been sick we should handicap him a little. But being a Texan he won’t accept.
I don’t think he likes barbecue anyway.

Handicap my a**!!!!! The old Doc is good to go. A contest for BBQ sounds good. Besides Rose and probably beat all of the guys in a flash.

See everyone son.

That’s probably true. 😆 😆

It looks like we got something going here. Anyone else like barbecue?

I know Pit Boss will be in and so am I.

Don’t know if anyone can afford Pitt Boss’s BBQ eating habits. He will probably stuff his pockets with the left overs to eat during the night!!!

I’m in. First trip to Memphis. Wish I was there a little longer to enjoy the city.

Count the Sandman in… Pitboss and I may rent a few hogs for the weekend. Should be a good ride right after those ribs.

Corkey’s here we come.

Maybe we should warn them were coming? There’s a Corkey’s BBQ buffet at Sams Town, there’s no way in heck they’re making money on our visit.

If that’s the ribs we are talking about, we tried them last year, and there is no way they can touch RonaldH or ChanceC’s ribs. 🙂

There is also a place on Central Avenue in Memphis called "Central Bar B Que" that has some Baby Back Ribs that are to die for. Excellent, but they are usually only open at lunch. Better get there early.

Well there is only one way to prove yourself Tommy, you and Ron are going to have to bring some to Memphis. But watch yourself at the border, TN does not take kindly to Texans bingin in Texas style bbq.

Now its off to Tunica speech lesson, I have to practice sayin thangs like Ya’ll.

After next weekend it will come easy for you ! 😆 😆 😆

Didn’t we go to Corky’s last year as a group? I think I need a bigger rental this year. Dinner is on me! Unless someone can beat my throw 😆

We are not scared. You taught us well. 😆

Dom:

Let me get this straight, if we "let" you win your paying for dinner? Done!!

We went to Interstate BBQ across from Peabody hotel. And, don’t worry, I have downloaded all the BBQ place in Memphis into my GPS, we’ll find those suckers even if we have to walk!

Posted by: Dr Crapology on April 20, 2014, 11:19 am

Dom, think we went to the Rendezous BBQ Restaurant not far from the class hotel in Memphis one night. It was down an ally and we ate in the basement of that fine restaurant. Rose and Doc are licking their collective chops. Can’t wait.

See everyone in a few days.

Alligator Rose and Doc

I like BBQ but I’m not shooting against seasoned pro’s for BBQ. 😉 Speak for yourself TommyC. Haha. 😀

Posted by: Pit Boss on April 21, 2014, 2:36 pm

Doc your right it was Charles Vergo’s Rendezvous. I will update my GPS to 52 S 2nd St, Memphis, TN 38103.

I called them and told them order extra meat for Friday.

Well, tomorrow is Memphis and I can’t wait. Memphis is where I took my primer class in 2006.
Memphis is where I began as a mentor in 2013. This is where I began with the GTC family.
Lots and lots of memories and lifelong friends. It don’t get no better than this.

Speaking of barbecue. It might be worth a couple hundred dollars worth of ribs just to go head-to-head with the Great Dominator.
