So my party and I have decided to haul out the gumbo pot and a couple of chickens and hogs for Saturday night.
Anyone interested in some authentic cajun cooking (while it lasts) should come by and introduce themselves. We'll be a party of 5 (probably) camped out in the dark at D-0, right at the dead end, look for a big red dodge. The plan is to leave the faire at around 6:30 on Saturday evening to get it started, should be in full boil by the time the faire closes.
Do you deliver as I will starting my 12 hour shift around that time at work. ;D

oooo I love me some gumbo... alas that is the night my camp is doing their Thanksgiving Dinner so I'm sure I'll be stuffed.. but I'll be sure to try and stop sometime!
I believe I'll have to stumble your way...
I think I will have to stumble that way myself. Sounds YUMMY!
I'm gonna be stuffed to the brim with food but it'd be great to meet ya'll! Definitely wander down your way. :)
We're finishing preparations and heading out in a just a little while; looking forward to meeting you all!
Xed - It was a great pleasure meeting you and your crew. That jambalaya was awesome. Thank you again for sharing your Turkey day with us.
It was great to meet y'all! See ya at the next faire. :)
Thanks, guys, Thanksgiving was great with you all!
Did anyone happen to get contact info for the group of Scarbies camped out near Mclot?
Xed, it was awesome meeting you over at PR! I hope you had a wonderful weekend, and I'm sad I didn't managed to get any of the jambalaya!
Great meeting you all, for sure!
My apologies to anyone who didnt get any Jambalaya, we'll be sure to do it again next year!

Are you talking about the folks right behind us in the pop up camper? We didn't get any contact info but I did tell them about r/f.
Yup, that was them. Maybe they'll show up!
I think they mentioned making an effort to attend Sherwood. If we see them I will remind them about the forum.
XED!! We can haz some of your awesome gumbo?? Are y'all planning a trip to TRF this year? ;D
Oh, no, you reminded me about the Gumbo... Must have gumbo... That was awesome... We love the Xed crew (and their gumbo) (o:
:( :'( :( Hope we hear from Xed soon!
This thread warms my soul in ways that I can't begin to describe. We will definitely be back this year, and will definately be cooking on thanksgiving, at LEAST.
Maybe I can scare something up for the October trip, too. We'll see.
;D
[EDIT]: I don't visit here a lot during the off-season, if you'd like my facebook info, inbox me and I'll share that. It gets kind of hairy at times, though, so be warned.
[EDIT #2]: Forgot to mention that I've got a whole bunch of mead from this summer's test batches for tasting! I've got Pineapple/Kiwi, Pomegranate/Rosehip, Traditional, Traditional aged with light toast oak, Traditional aged in heavy toast oak, and a Citrus mix; all around 10-11% abv.
Xed, if you would be so kind as to hold some of the rosehip mead until closing weekend I'd be ever so grateful!! I would LOVE to try that!
I'll do my best :)
It's mostly pomegranate, though. The rosehips weren't strong enough to really make an appearance over the tartness of the poms.
Can't wait to see y'all! Sending you a PM for FB info. Think I am going to have to sample the mead too! ;D
