    We're doing this again for FF17! It's going to have to be slightly different as we have a limit on power useage.

    The venue policy is that we can only use one crock pot. With tank power usage, that really means none. However, there will be several members getting hotel room (myself included) and we can stage the crock pots in the hotel rooms, and bring them out when it's eatin' time.

    On that topic: The event is 10am-2pm, so we will roll out the food right at Noon. This was a bit ambiguous last time, so we're locking this in right up front!!

    Contest: Same as last year, we'll have a contest for the Best Main Dish and for the Best Side Dish/Dessert. Only this time, we'll actually remember to vote at the event and hand out awards!! :headwally::eggonface:

    The club will provide plates, silverware, and drinks.

    For reference, here is last year's thread: Fall Fest - 1st annual Fest Cook-Off/Potluck. Who has the cooking skills?

    And last year's sign-up (because there is more info posted there): Fall Fest - Fall Fest Cook off sign up

    We'll keep this to one thread this time: post here to sign up and let us know what you're bringing!!! :drool:

    Come one - Come all !!!!!!
    Fall Fest 2017 and the 2nd annual Club Barbecue are only 2 weeks away!!!!!!!!


    We had such a good time with this barbecue last year - and the food was outstanding!!!!! Time to be thinking what your will bring!!!!

    I'll be bringing chocolate brownie or baked beans - depending on which is needed more.

    Also as noted in the link to the thread from last year, the club will buy the meat that members decide to cook - so don't let the cost of the meat be a stopper from showing of your barbecue skills!!!!!

    @Region: Cedar Rapids & Iowa City
    @Region: Waterloo & Cedar Falls
    @Region: Des Moines & Ames
    @Region: Quad Cities
    @Region: Burlington

    I hope to see you there.

    I think most people at least try something, 15-20 lbs sounds good to me, I’ll take the leftovers home

    Based on the responses so far, I'll bring baked beans instead of brownies.
