Hogan;
Fantastic. I love good seafood gumbo. I'm looking forward to the panhandle food fest. Can you get some crawfish? Do you have a large cook pot? I have a propane burner, 60 qt pot and a 30 qt pot. I'm going to make the low country boil, If you can make a gumbo. Nita says she makes a great Scampi. Eric is working on something, maybe oysters. If anyone else has pots or cookers let us know. If not I might have to go get another one. Just a month away till seafood delux, at the nicest campground in the panhandle. If anyone else has a suggestion let us know. I have been so busy at work haven't had time after 16 hr days, to sit at computer and think. I think we need big eaters!!!

I have a stock pot and an electric burner, not big enough for a boil but it will work for the gumbo I am sure. I will be making the scampi in an electric skillet, I will serve it with rice. I will bring some garlic bread sticks.
What else will we need for side dishes, or do we need side dishes, besides a cooler and a box fan??

My son-n-law has a turkey cooker that will work for mudbug pot. I won't need that big of vessel for the gumbo. I will borrow it and bring it along. Will work on getting the crawfish. The flood on the Mississippi has caused a shortage of crawfish earlier but it may be okay now.
Nita;
I'll also bring the fixin's for our favorite cole slaw. Nita tell me what you think on sides. The LC boil is shrimp, lobster, corn on the cob, and potatoes. Your shrimp scampi with rice dish. Hogan working on a great gumbo. And Eric is working on something. We need lots of drinks that cool you off, teas, sodas, beers, frozen margaritas. Maybe we could ask Eric and Dorothy to bring the dessert....say a large key lime pie. Makes me feel tropical from here. What do you think?

Ok, so I am not clear if anyone needs to use our stock pot and electric burner. Just let me know if ya'll need it. I keep it in the camper so I'll have it with me.
Sounds like we will have plenty to eat. We will bring a cooler of drinks and plates and forks and paper towels and a jar of cocktail sauce.

Mickey, That's a very good question! I will have to look in the camper to see if it tells on it how much it holds. It's probably about 3 gallon if I had to guess, we use it when we do shrimp, but it is not one of those huge ones that comes with the gas burner, it takes a while for the electric eye to get it boiling, but for just the two of us it's worked fine. But I can check and see if it tells on the pot tomorrow and let you know.

Sorry it took me so long to get the answer to the question for you.
The pot does not have a size on it, but we put 3 gallons of water in it with a bit of room to spare at the top. It is 9" tall and 10" opening. Hope that helps.

Thanks for joining us on our panhandle excursion. We are going to have a great time. How can you fail when you have great people, great food, and great places to meet. We too are looking forward to seeing everyone in just under a month. We'll be talking soon.

We are more than happy you are attending our Heartland Camp-Out aka Seafood Fest. I have been so busy at work I have been slow to get on forum. As you can gather we are planning another great time for the Heartland Group. Nita and Wayne are making a Shrimp Scampi, Hpogan and Donna making a Seafood Gumbo, Eric and Dorothy are always surprizing us with something sprecial, and I'm making a Low Country Boil. We haven't really said but I think this is going to happen Saturday afternoon to give everyone time to get things set up. We possibly could use extra drinks, ice, or something for dessert. Just chime in with suggestions, well try to coordinate. ALSO don't forget a big appetite. There will be plenty of food and fun.

Thought I would post what I am bringing so it may help to not have doubles of anything. You can move this to top post if you like.
Also, we will be going to Bay Towne Wharf in San Destin on Friday evening around 7, if anyone would like to go with us, they are welcome. I was waiting on a recipe from a friend on an slaw made with soy sauce and ramen noodles that I had at a cook-out that was so good, but I can't get in touch with her.
Anita & Wayne:Food: Shrimp Scampi/Rice, Garlic Bread stix, 2 jars of Cocktail sauce, cooler of sodas & water.
Extras: Foam Plates & bowls, plastic silverware, a roll of paper towels, moist hand wipes.
And of course we will bring our own chairs and any special drinks that are a must have, ha.

Girls and Guys;
If you get a chance add what you are bringing to the thread so like Nita pointed out there won't be a lot of doubles.
I'm sitting here at my computor, which I am chained to, way too much these days for work, and thinking of island breezes, cool drinks, great friends, and awsome food in just a few short days. I can't resist thinking of toes in the water, butt in the sand, kind of day!!!
Now back to work, says the boss!! (Bonnie) What a slave driver
