BBQ Events: Big Apple Barbecue Block Party

Well folks, the Big Apple Block Barbecue Party has come and gone, and no I didn't attend. I'm feeling a little guilty about that, but hey some weekends are made for sleeping.

I've read over the blogs and it seems that the lines were ever present and foiled many determined Q'ers attempts at sampling the food. What a shame. Rumor has it that this is going to be the last Big Apple Barbeque Block Party, but without adequate crowd control, I'm not really surprised.

Here's a picture of some of what we missed. It's a platter of the famous Elgin Hot Guts and brisket from the infamous Southside Market down in Texas. Thanks to Jason Perlow over at Off The Broiler for the pic. Jason was one of the lucky ones, he had a great time, you can read all about it on his blog.
