Welcome to the forum. More Texans. :thumbsup:

Ya'll have a few in your neck of the woods.
Come to the big bash in Oct and you will meet quite a few Texans with tears or tiny trailers. It's not far from you. We are all going to teach the cajuns how to BBQ.

No braggin, just fact. If anyone knows anything about smoken BBQ, then you know it's from Texas.

Just a little smoker from Texas for a small get together. Reckon them Cajuns have anything like this.

I've actually seen that BBQ rig. It was stopped at a roadside bar in between Austin and Elgin. I dunno if it was hired for the ROT Bike Rally but it was that weekend.

Hello Stewarts and welcome to a wonderful place.

We are not too far from you. Charles and I are in Lufkin.

As a matter of fact I just drove through Carthage twice today.

Took our 23 year old Birthday girl to gamble in Shreveport.
No big win though. The Horseshoe is just a little more well off now that we left.

We bought a new 4-wheeler in Carthage a few months ago too.


Again, Welcome
Linda

Dimensions of the weekender trailer

Postby starleen2 » Sun Aug 05, 2007 9:08 pm

Dimensions of the weekender trailer are 6’2” wide by 8’ long x 4’ feet high and very roomy inside. Our first trailer was a scant 5’ X 6’ X 3.5’. It worked well but a bit cramped. It was a real learning experience. If anyone in the Texas area needs foam for mattresses, I found a good supplier in Tyler that will cut and ship foam of any dimension or firmness: Tyler Foam Product

Welcome Starleen2 ( Stewarts ) to the trailer obsession twelve step program. :thumbsup:
You have a trailer kinda - almost like the one I'm building. The size of the one I'm working on is 5'-9" wide by 10'-0" long by 4'-0" to 6'-6" high.
:thinking:
I know I over built also. Some I have already pulled out a week ago before skinning.
:oops:

Hey Rocky,

That rig was in Vegas for a Nascar race a few years back. I don't remember what I ate, but I remember the smoker! It was amazing.
