Brother Dan Chambers posted in his FB page yesterday that his son (Drew) cooked a pork butt in an old pit that was left at the house they live in and during the cook the pit literally fell apart.
While its awesome that Drew is following in Dad's footsteps and getting into Q, not having a good pit will NOT STAND!
As some of you know, I've been storing Dan's trailer and all of his BBQ "gear" at my home for him since he had to have his house moved (the moving company would not move anything in the garage or back yard).
I'm trying to work out details with Dan as to which or how many of his pits he would like to have at his house. I'm not sure how much room he has, storage possibilities, how long he'll be at the house his family is at, etc, but I think he needs at LEAST one of his pits there for Drew to use.
At the minimum, I'd like to get his LBGE, or his Big Steel Keg (or both) to him.
He has quite a lot of other gear. When I went and picked everything up, I loaded both his trailer and my F150 with camper shell TO FULL CAPACITY. Depending on how much Dan wants and can store, some or all of it needs to get to him. He may not have room to store all of it, but I'll let him make that call.
In the mean time, I want to see if we can make this happen.
I'm just outside of Indianapolis and he's in Pearsall, TX.
There are two routes we can take:
IN, IL, W KY, W TN, AR, E TX
or
IN, IL, MO, OK, NE TX
If we just haul one or two pieces to him, we can do so via pickup truck beds.
If we haul the trailer, it's a heavy sucker, but I hauled it with my F150 OK. A 2 5/16" ball is required. Trailer is a double axle. Not sure of exact size, but I'd guess 7'x14'.
Do to my competition schedule, I can only haul this weekend and am booked the rest of the month.
Sound off if you can help.
WHAT SAY YOU BRETHREN?!
