maxmadmax 8 #1 April 30, 2008 Greetings to All! Appears that the First Annual Rib Fest will be happening this Saturday night (May 3rd) at Skydive Houston. There are four Master Chefs cooking for your tastebuds; R.D, Skyder, Little Joe and Mad Max. Each has their own perfect rib-o-licious recipe. There will be corn also for you corn-o-seurs! Wrapped in foil, smothered in garlic and lathered up with butter. All food must be consumed. Bring your hunger and gorge on! When it's all ate up....it's all gone. Don't go away mad....just go away!

JohnRich 4 #2 April 30, 2008 I'll be there. You'll need extra. I'm eatin' your ribs until they stick to my ribs from the inside, or until I moo like a cow, whichever comes first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to work Saturday - but I can come down Saturday night and maybe stay for some jumping on Sunday.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxmadmax 8 #4 May 4, 2008 The event was a great success! We had one-no go and another one no-show. Crewdog Archibald slapped five slabs on the pit. Did the slow cook thing. RD used a secret dry rub and finished them off with a double secret glaze. RD was stunned and was heard to remark " the ribs just disappeard. I put them on the table and they just evaporated!" That's what happens when a bunch on hungry skydivers jump on great food. You swear it was a tribe of starving savages from a Tarzan movie. Couch Chris (the white one) threw down his usual brussel sprouts and taters. He was observed using at least ten pounds of butter and twenty pounds of garlic. The crowd was in a trance at this stage. and was heard purring "mmmmmmmmm". Some of them may have to attend rehab next week. Mad Max served up a combo of pork and dinasour beef ribs. He blinked and they were gone. The corn came out and just vanished. But there were a lot greasey faces glistening in the lights. Corn-a-seurs were everywhere. Ten rolls of paper towels were used for facial cleanup. All in all it was a great success. We'll do it again. Ciao. Don't go away mad....just go away!

JohnRich 4 #5 May 5, 2008 QuoteI'm eatin' your ribs until I moo like a cow. MOO! Dang, that was a good meal. Thanks to all the contributors, who don't charge a dime to feed the hungry masses. And it may be the only BBQ cookout in the entire world that serves up brussels sprouts. Who knows, this fad might soon catch on at drop zones around the world. Dang nice bonfire too. Did I smell a tinge of jet fuel in there to get that thing cooking? And the surprise appearance of Evel Knievel appearing out of the black of night on his motorcycle and jumping over the bonfire was a great touch. Where was his long flowing cape? Too bad about that wood sitting bench though. This Skydive Houston place really has a great social atmosphere happening when the sun goes down. A big welcome to those folks from other drop zones who have started showing up and helping contribute to the friendly vibes. I could have swore I even saw the new DZ owner making a fun jump!

JohnRich 4 #8 May 7, 2008 Oh, and I forgot to mention the surprise attack by two Japanese Zeros that buzzed the airport. I thought it was Pearl Harbor, all over again. Not to fear though, they both departed trailing smoke from return fire. Those darned Nips ought to know better than to mess with Texas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
