It only works well when the meat is cooked, but honestly, I don't think it is worth all the burns anymore.Do you ever "make it" with the shoulders or briskets?"you've become incredibly successful and it's not a matter of "making it" anymore"

I wish I had a reason to get down to NOLA. 3 kids and no clients anywhere close makes it way too hard. Maybe we can get another company meeting down there like the last one, before McClure's was even a construction project. It got a bit crazy, so seems like we are avoiding going back there.

Love it, but do those dudes eat everything at every stop? It looked like they knocked back what you gave them. Pretty fun concept.

Have a friend who is dreaming about having a brew pub. Might bring him to NO Tap Room if we can swing the airfare.
I think he's high on enthusiasm, but low on knowledge and experience to go into the bar/restaurant scene, not least on the microbrew angle.
I think he needs a heavy dose of reality...

whoa...eerie. Miss ya GB.Congrats, Tipsy! As far as funding, look into Small Business Administration lenders. I think this would be something that would be in their ballpark. You might also want to talk to the guys at Nola Brewing--they've gone through this recently too. I'm sure you probably know them, but if not I can get you an intro.If you are serious about this, PM megonna have to beg borrow and possible sell one of my children. This would be a lot easier if I had rich family....or family with any money. Getting the money is the only part of this I have no idea what to do. The pop up will hopefully generate interest enough to show a bank it is a viable biz, and maybe be a platform to woo potential investors.got 150K you want to invest?Never thought I'd be begging strangers for money. This board has been more generous over the years, especially after that little storm back in 05. If you arent familiar with the story, the board put a fund together which helped a lot during a time when there was little hope. Many of us received a generous sum, and many believe I used mine unwisely or even selfishly. I'm not going to sit here and try to defend myself against that again....my conscience is clear, although I regret joking that it paid for a vacation.
That being said...
I am serious. Finding the money is my only real obstacle. And I have no real idea how to go about getting it. Most restaurants are either family backed or bank backed. Investors sometimes play a role, but I've never been in that type of place in the last 25 years. Since I dont have wealthy family, a great credit history or a ton of collateral, investors are going to have to be where I focus for now....problem is I don't know how to approach that.
Any ideas or info you want to pass along would be great.

This is huge btw. Really huge.

I just heard he went Vegan. Glad he got to you place first.
Looking forward to seeing the show. FYI - my wife has completely adopted my McClure's shirt and wears it around the house pretty much all the time now.

I've been watching it since it came on, it's a pretty good show, looking forward to seeing Tipsy.
Did you have an off-menu item to serve him? Or do I need to wait and be surprised?
