    Belgian visiting Texas and Wisconsin

    Well, yesterday was a great success! I think I can speak for the whole group to thank @rookhawk and his family for his hospitality, the great discussions we had and of course the voluminous amount of brisket, beef and porc ribs we consumed! Thank you very much to everyone that showed up!
