so this lady calls and asks us to cook for her 50 person family reunion… like next week. I told her that is too close of a time frame and I am booked. So I am trying to figure out if I can help her with a recommendation – then I figured I better find out why this last minute deal?
So she tells me she booked this BBQ caterer in Lexington 10 months ago – then he calls one week before the reunion and says he’s going to Myrtle Beach with his family – “I am canceling”. I couldn’t even believe it and I told her I’d help.
So Cindy and I told her if she could be patient with us (eat at 7, not 5), we could help. Cindy and I coached little league on Saturday till 12:30 in Danville (we were all packed up), hopped in the truck with the smoker behind, food in the coolers, etc and hit the road. 2hrs+ we pulled in to the event. They were sure happy to see us – they looked hungry! :-)
We started the smoker and started cooking. 3.5 hours later, we had the best smoked Chicken, Brats and Pulled Pork they ever ate.
Here’s the funny part – we were ready to serve at 6:30 – and we couldn’t find the hostess (my lady)! so Cindy called her on the phone and we found her – she was in the house upstairs or something… She came out, gathered everyone – not a hard job – these poor people have been smelling the smoker cook their BBQ with Hickory for the last 3.5 hours! The smell is always amazing.
Fed everyone – seconds and thirds, put all the leftovers in freezer bags (although I doubt any of it lasted till the next morning – there were some big appetites there), put all our stuff away, made sure the area was spotless and jetted out of there at 8:30-9pm. Got home at 11:30pm and felt great that we were able to pull that off last minute for them.
That’s what its all about – helping people. Call us for the best service and the best Low and Slow BBQ you ever ate – period. 859-319-5000 or 4000 We’ll take good care of you.
