Pics from Saturday hammerin @ Bethel Ridge Forge.

Fred.Rowe · Nov 21, 2010

There was a good turnout on Saturday. People drove down from Columbus; there were local artisans as well as people who drove up from Georgia and a fine gentleman blacksmith, from England attended.
It was a great day of camaraderie a few tall tales and a lot of good food.
I want to thank each of you for the many contributions you made to make this fine day possible.
Friends are priceless.

Looks like a great time. What did you guys throw down on the grill?

Evening Robert,

There were jalapeno poppers, aged venison tenderloin wrapped in bacon, pork chops and some t-bone steaks. Everyone donated something to the table.
I know we slowed down after lunch.

I never expected Southern Hospitality in Ohio, but You and your bunch of yeahoo's could do any redneck proud. I had a ball and it was quite an educational experience! I hope to back again in 2011
Many Thanks

It looks like you all had fun.
You have some really nice equipment in the shop.
But that barbeque on the left......nice. You don't mess around.
I'm getting hungry seeing the barbeque photos.

Tom,

I see they let you back across the border.

You are most welcome, my friend. We look forward to your returning next year.

Mark,

Thats my good friend Jeff Lawrence's grill. He says it will cook up half a beef or 300 jalapeno poppers.
And the guy can cook too. He brought along aged venison tenderloin wrapped in bacon strips. Tasty!
We had a blacksmith from England drop by and I know the way he put away the poppers; he was hurting the next day. Those Brits stomachs aren't used to such fare.

Have a nice holiday with your family, Fred
