2017 Mid Atlantic Monster Meetup Masterthread

[56MPG]

OK guys, time to get serious about another meetup out here. When and where? I can't do it the last two weeks in July, or the week of Labor Day, but don't let me stop you. How does the 8th or 15th of July look for everyone?

I know I'm missing a bunch. Help me fill in the blanks!

GRATE IDEA!!

Either of those dates could work for me, with a preference for July 8. 

And the great @teerhardy is moving back to NoVA in a month!  Just in time to get him back in the Mid-Atlantic fold.

July 8 would work best for me. Can't wait

That would work for me too - let's lock it in. @dwnthehatch can you let us know more about that location you scoped out? If all else fails I can host at my place again, but I know that's a hike for some at the outer reaches of our area. @eLLWOODgGLEN I missed you on the first post, I think I had the wrong "glen"...

[Neil_VT00]

I'd love to attend and will try to make it work.  We have a baby due in late July so who knows what might happen between now and then.

I should be able to make the 8th work. I can bring my MBH and any of my other kettles,  maybe even my SJ as a sear station.

Great. I plan to show off my Mini MT and Galley Que. One or both will get hot. I'll do bacon wrapped crab balls. Somehow.

I wish I could make it out that way but it's my daughters 2nd birthday party that day. I'm sure you will have a blast. Maybe next time.

July 8th for the mid-Atlantic meet-up... same day as the Chicago meet-up.  Nice!

[dwnthehatch]

I'm down for a meetup. Sadly I sold my collection. I can reserve the pavilion on the Chesapeake bay in my neighborhood.  My only concern is the beach traffic for everyone to get over here.  It can be brutal.

[56MPG]

Thanks Troy - that pavilion looked perfect. Just need to plan ahead for traffic, but I'm open to other ideas too. (Just responded to your PM by the way.)

[eLLWOODgGLEN]

Just let me know what is preferred for me to cook,  of there are no suggestions then ribs and beans it is.

Sounds good to me. I'll work up a smoked potato salad to accompany the crab balls.

Thanks for thinking of me despite my absence around here. My family and I will actually be down in Chesapeake Beach visiting my best friend so I'll have to decline.

Hey Tim - nice to see you pop in. I'm going down to Chesapeake Beach for the first time myself in a few weeks. Looks nice. How long will it take your Amish buggy to get down there?
