Blue BBQ IRL?

Sat July 27 at 11:30 AM, Oddwood Brewing/KG Barbecue

3108, Manor Road, Austin, Travis County, Texas, 78723, United States (Map & Directions)

I am aware that it is oppressively hot until October, but this does sound like great food. Thursdays or Saturdays are usually best for me, I'm not at all offended if consensus is for some other time!

I’d love to! This place looks amazing and it’d be great to meet some people. Are you thinking lunch? Looks like dinner may run the risk of them selling out.

I could do Thu or Sat (depending on the week), but would generally prefer Sat. Next openings for me are Thu 7/25 or Sat 7/27.

This is walking distance for me. I’ll probably be a yes once the date firms up.

I’ve been meaning to check it out. I would be up for it (weekends, outside of work hours)

Sounds great to me. I'm free after 7/21.

I missed the post, but I have more free time these days. Am likely to be up for most weekends, unforeseen circumstances aside.

I'm in. I can do Tuesdays, Thursdays, or Saturdays. I read the article and am intrigued.

And that dude has a Zappa level 'stache. I'm impressed.

Looks like Saturday 7/27 at lunchtime might work to get a group together - updating the entry accordingly.

Anyone here live in North Austin who would be willing to pick me up and drop me off after (I don't drive anymore - vision reasons).

I won't be able to make lunch because the Hill Country Ride for AIDS is doing a celebratory ride that day commemorating the delivery of our raised funds to our beneficiary organizations ... but y'all have a fantastic time, and report back on that BBQ!

I’m good to go. See y’all there!

As a work from home hermit - how can I resist a get-together at a place I could walk to if it wasn't so crazy hot?

Also - "Eyebeam"? Is that you Sam? Did we use to attend sketch group together a million years ago?

Sorry, Wetterschneider, I'm not Sam. Just a big fan of his work.

This is today! Brightest thing in my closet is an orange Celia For Mayor t-shirt, so I will be wearing that.

Ah beans. My kid schedule changed and I didn’t connect the dots until now. I’m going to have to miss it but please me know it y’all are up for round 2 some other weekend!
