I'd like to announce that for everyone at Trackrock, I'll be making a Gumbo on Saturday night at Cabin 4.
First of all, I'd like to thank Phillip for letting us invade the kitchen.

Then I'd like to thank Mike (MiBo71) who offered to provide the plates/utensils/napkins and such.

Then I want to thank Darth Blader who is making the Jambalaya- Yum, yum, yah yah!



If you've never been to Trackrock, then this should push you over the edge and get you off the fence. I'm flying in from Kansas City, if that is any indication of how cool this thing is.

Anyhow, I'll be making the Gumbo and Rice. Trackrock is super casual and as such, I really can't say when dinner will be served. I can say that I'm planning on having it ready by about 5:30 with an expectation to serve sometime between 5:30 and 8:30. I suspect that we'll probably spend the last hour of daylight out cutting and chopping and getting a fire going.

If you could RSVP to this thread, it would help, but if you can't, don't, prefer not to, or whatever, then don't let it stop you from coming. The beauty of Gumbo is that it's very flexible wrt portions.

If you wan't to bring something (other than beer or bourbon) then let me know and I'll update the thread.

I'm coming! And my two boys. Let me get back to you in a few regarding what we'll bring.
 
12 qt.

I'll make some kind of berry cobbler. Depends on what I can find.
 
Wish I could make it, but I'll be at a friends wedding that weekend. I had a blast at the last Trackrock and I owe Tony a nice cigar!
 
Hey, how about something for a poor gluten intolerant fella? Never mind, I'll eat potato salad and guard the bourbon.:D Gonna be quite the feast!
 
Rick, I've got the same issues with gluten, so I can't partake in a lot. I tell you what. I will switch my dish to a Jambalaya so we have something good to chow on!
 
I had thoughts on jambalaya myself! Ecellent choice.
Let me know if I can bring some of the fixins.
 
Swo, put me down for collard greens and Cajun corn and Bacon Maque Choux. If for some reason I can't all the ingredients fresh for these dishes I'll do a couple of side veggie dishes everyone can have.
 
Count me in also +3... wife and 2 kids (12 & 16).

We'll bring a dish as well...just not sure what dish, I'll have to consult the boss.

- Robert
 
Almost done prepping for the Pre-Trackrock Jambalaya test run this weekend. Time to shake the rust off... Can't wait!
