Calling all Arizonians it is getting warmer maybe to warm to do a real get together, so what about doing Rudy's BBQ http://www.rudysbbq.com/page/location/name/bbq-chandler/phoenix on a Sat night? Date is open so throw out a good night to do this. The intent is to gather together all interested partys get to know everyone a little better and get a sense on what everyone is looking for.
@Winz @AZ Monsoon @AZRaptor @AZ_MIKEY @jcnaz @THUNDERDOME @G$ If I missed (and I'm sure I did) anyone let me know and are more than happy to have you.
If Rudy's doesn't work any and all suggestions are welcome!
This is a great idea, Ron. I will start kicking my calendar around...
Great idea, I am in! The only bad days for me are June 19 through the 22nd. Other than that, I can make it.
Rudy's is a good location, kind of in the center of all of us. Should we decide that we want to cook instead, I can offer to host and we can put the Ranch (and a few other kettles) to work. Only caveat is that I live in Gold Canyon which is a long drive for most of you.
Winz
Sounds good! I think Rudys is a nice, cool meet up spot. First week in June is no good for me, but other than that I think i could swing it
I'm game. I've never been to Rudy's so that sounds great. We're doing some vacations this summer with the kids, but other than that should be around. Thanks!
So would the 13th or the 27th work? I know we have kicked around an actual Kettle cooking get together, maybe in the fall/cooler weather?
Oh and a shout out to
@With a K sorry i forgot your name. :-[ :-[

I am available on the 13th, but not the 27th...
Does the 13th work for anyone else? It will work for me, but any Sat will work for me so....
Any idea on a time? I am working the nightshift so i am trying to stay with those hours, i get up around 1:30 pm so anytime after say 4:00 pm would work.
I am flying back into town from vacation in Florida with the family on the 13th, but don't move anything on my account. If the 13th works for everyone I'll just catch the Fall/Winter kettle cook get together.
13th, 5:30 at rudy's?

Starting to sound good. Any word from
@AZ_MIKEY or
@With a K ?
Bumping this to get an idea who is going to make it,i sent a text to those i have numbers for. If you didn't get a text i don't have your number or through a miracle of technology it got left off of the group msg list :o
The time is 5:30pm at Rudy's on Chandler Blvd. Oh and if you need a ride or an excuse to make it we can give you a surefire excuse! ;D
I'm in
Winz
I will know my work schedule for next weekend in the next day or so.
Fingers crossed.
I am in.
I am in. See you there!
Have fun guys.
With the rising heat in the "Valley of the Sun" we decided to have an initial meet up at Rudy's to eat some good BBQ and drink some cold beers We had representation from the Far West of the valley (1911 Ron) the far East of the valley (Me, JC, and Mikey) and from the Scottsdale area (AZMonsoon). It was a great chance to put some names to faces (and text numbers).

Eh whats 72.8 miles between friends right? We had a great time meeting everyone and some good food and beers!
It was a good time and was nice to see a bunch of desert kettle heads gathered together.
Wish I would have been able to make it, gang. Looks like a fun time.
Great to see everyone get together !!!!
Only missed G$ and a few others (who?) from the surrounding area......
You all are lucky to have Winz in your midst, he's like the glue of the universe when it comes to WKC & getting us together & on track....very lucky folks !!!

I wish I could have been there. I was stupid enough to agree to play in a 1:30 shotgun, it was brutal.
I was at AZ Grand which is only a few miles north...sorry I missed it. Next time!
