I think I can help with the cooking this year. Brain, you did a great job cooking last year but didn't have much time to socialize or do any modding. I don't want to see that again this year. :yourock: And I promise not to treat everyone like Gods with burnt offerings. :whistle:

I don't have a problem with helping cook.   :thumbup:
I love to eat so, the sooner I start cooking, the sooner I get to eat.

At our family GTG's my older brother is the Grill Master and I'm usually the beer bitch.  :winkani:
So its funny that I finally get to be the chef.

At my first Bratfest somebody (cant remember who it was, sorry) introduced me to
the Beer Boil for the Brats prior to girlling them.  That was some serious Good Eats.
Chopped onion?, Green pepper?, Old Milwaukee?, Bay leaf?,  I'll have to find the recipe.

If we are to do brats this year I'd like to try and recreate that experience.

It might have been Yndio.   The whole reason BratFest started was because  Yndio and KY member Murman got to talking about grilling and brats came up and Murman said he had the best beer boil recipe but it required Old Style beer and he couldn't find any in KY and Yndio said there was plenty of Old Style here in KC so we all decided to meet in  St Louis for Brat Fest!! 

So if you can't find it I can ask Murman (who has since moved to NorCal) for the recipe and like I said it was Old Style beer not old Milwaukee.

EarthQuake rode with me and KY_Bob rode with Murman and CowgirlUP.  That was a LONG day.  We left Nashville at 5:00 a.m. and didn't get back home that night until just after midnight.  Murman gave away bottles of Meguiar's detail spray.

That was my first introduction to quick detail sprays. I've gone through a bunch of it since then, especially the two years I had the Vette. It's against Vette law to drive a dirty one.  :rolleyes: Any dirty/dusty/buggy areas were sprayed down every time I drove it. The Millennium yellow was really pretty but man did it show every little speck of dirt!

Was it Murman or Yndio that gave them away?  I can't remember.



I remember that was EQ's first time ever having a brat and he went back for seconds!!!


I'm still waiting on Murman to get me his recipe.    :drool:
