    June 30th Independence Day Celebration

    Everyone is invited to our house for our 4th of July party (On the the 30th of June) party/BBQ/HoeDown. 4th of July celebration on Saturday the 30 of June Invite. The Forth celebration is on Saturday 30 June this year. Anna and I would like to invite everyone out to help celebrate the Birth of our great nation.
    We are proud to have the band “The Garage Door Boys” perform this year. GDB is a local Dallas Band taking their own angle on Country/Rock. They performed last year and was hilarious and entertaining. This is a fantastic family friendly band. We will pass around a tip jar to help gather up some funds to help defray the costs of the gas and effort they put into entertaining the crowd.
    BBQ plans this year: We built a large Pig Rotisserie to smoke a whole hog. This thing is massive.
    Please bring Fireworks. We live outside city limits, so Big Boom fireworks are highly encouraged. If you can afford one, please bring at least one big boom. We also have areas that are for the little kids so bring sparklers and such for the young uns.
    Home Brew: If you are a brewer, I encourage you to bring a sample. I have 10 gallons fermenting right now. A Marzen and a Double Bock is what I have fermenting right now.
    Things to bring:
    Fireworks (If you have kids bring some kid friendly ones) bring Big Booms too.
    Side Dish Food/Desserts
    Drinks (Adult or kid friendly)
    Lawn chairs and canopies
    ​Kids
    Bags of Ice
    Water Balloons/Water Guns
    Home Made Ice Cream
    BUG SPRAY!
    Food theme will be good old Texas BBQ Rotisserie Hog. With Beans n’ Fixens. Oh yeah.
    We want people to bring some Homemade Ice Cream makers with the ingredients if they can?
    A good head count needed on who is thinking of coming out
    We hope to see everyone there.
    The only caveat I have on the fireworks is if everything suddenly dries out and it becomes a fire hazard we may just stand around in a circle and yell boom a lot.
    Goal is to keep all ten fingers and toes and most of your hearing but still have a good time

    The Forth celebration is on Saturday 30 June this year.

    We would love to be there ..... it'd be the dearest free grog I ever had though.
    Maybe if we get to retire.

    Re: June 30th Independence Day Celebration

    A friend at work put this insane Pig Rotisserie idea in my head. So my neighbor and I built it from a new 275 Gallon Oil tank. Just like fixing a Mustang, YouTube and Mr. Google were leaned on very heavily.

    Re: June 30th Independence Day Celebration

    I'm stuck in South Korea working so some of my friends came over to fire it up to burn off the paint and season the inside with oil. Kind of like a cast iron skillet. I hear they are doing some chickens on it today to take for a test run.
    And yes that is Anna's Mustang sitting there waiting on me to come work on it.

    Re: June 30th Independence Day Celebration

    Good eye RPM. Must be a cop or something. ​ I picked up one too many projects this year. 34 Ford Tudor. Not sure on the roof. I got it and a whole slew of parts from a lady we helped a few years back after a tornado ripped her house to shreds. This was her late husband's dream project. I could be my nightmare project. Wife said I can't work on any other cars until hers is finished. I just need to be home to start working some of these projects. It looks like August may be the next time I am home for any length of time. I've been home less than four weeks this year. Money is good, but it sucks to be on the road all the time. These projects don't pay for themselves.

    Re: June 30th Independence Day Celebration

    I woulda perfered a "used" oil drum!!! Then you wouldn't a needed to "season it"!!
    Gotta love a good  No.5 heat'in oil flavored hawg on the spit! Don't need no bar-b-que sauce either.
       Funny how my method tends to make your "bowels-a-might-loose". Which ain't necessarily a baaaaad thang....sometimes. Anyhow....your method will do....for "city-style-bar-b-que".

    I'm really curious to know what your using to power the rotisserie. I'm hoping you're going to say the flatie from the '34.

    12 volt motor designed for a rotisserie that can handle up to 125 pounds at continuous rotation for around 12 hours. 5 RPM. I think the 34 motor would spin just a little too fast.
