We will start at 1 pm or thereabouts and go until we have all had enough, which will mean after dinner. If you want to bring food, anything that can be grilled on a BGE, a Weber Summit or a Weber kettle will work very well. Large pieces of red meat, especially dry aged from Flannery, is always appreciated.
The only requirements are as follows:
You must bring really good wine.
When you open the really good wine you bring, you must offer a taste to your host, because last time that didn’t happen and I found some bottles of really good wine that somehow managed to be empty without me having tried them.
Post your interest and your wine here so we can keep a running list of people and wines. If you want to bring food, list that as well, but food is entirely optional.
