I think it isn't tacky at all. I'm sure Jack would be honored by smoke
rising from cookers around the globe. My butt (or other suitable product)
will be on the fire Saturday also. An extra special beer will also be raised
in his honor.

If he didn't get into heaven, at least we know who's running the grill.

Hopefully here too, but , Alas, the Weather nazis are prediction the
return to Ice Station Calgary starting Friday. We'll work on a
suitable indoor 'cook' .

I think it's a great idea, Fos. We'll fire up the WSM and toast a beer to
the sky.

I probably wouldn't have gotten my Kamados if not for Jack. He might
never have had a low and slow black cherry smoked chicken if not for me.
I'll be sending some chicken grease laden black cherry smoke his way.

He'll be greatly missed by all of us and I'm sure it would be what he wanted.
Rain or shine, think the forecast is for rain..

You can count me in for sure, regardless of the predicted -4C forecast.

be cooking one of Jacks favourites.

Already doing some ribs tomorrow. Maybe a brisket (fat toward the
flame) on Saturday?

Excellent idea Fos! I'll probably do some smoked meat loaf. Dana

show about sandwiches on PBS last night, must a-been Jack nudg'in me. I

I never had the pleasure of meeting Jack, but I feel a real sense of
loss over this news. Count me in, even though our weather is going to
be turning bad -- that's why God invented remote thermometers.

Here's to you, Jack.

Not tacky at all.

Jack's memorial service is at 3pm Eastern time this Saturday.
Please fire up your grills or lift a Guinness then in his memory.
For our friends in GB, that'll be 8 pm your time. For folks on the
Left Coast of the Yew Ess, that's noon.

My grill will be fired up long before noon for the Jack Curry Worldwide
Memorial Cook as I'll be doing butts and don't intend to stay up till 3am to
get em cooked. But as I'm cooking those butts (and ribs which I will throw
on precisely at noon) I will most definitely lift a glass in Jacks honor at
12pm PST. Is Guinness the ale Jack would prefer? If so, then so be it!

Shed a tear and lift an ale, for a significant soul has passed.

I'll be sending a little smoke Jack's way come Saturday evening.
An 18lb turkey, 2 12lb briskets, and 2 7lb butts are going on
the smoker for the Super Bowl and to restock my freezer.
January sure took it's toll on my freezered meat selections.

Started about an hour ago. Butt N Chix.

1st time using a garage sale pick up of a little NB unit. Won't fit much
more than two butts in it.

The good smells will be going his way in a few hours.

I just (50min ago) put 2 briskets on and have 2 butts to go on
in a bit. The turkey is going on at 7am. The turkey and 1
brisket are for a Super Bowl party, the rest is going in the
freezer!

Here's to Jack! (hoisting a Dr. Pepper, for now)

The storm that had been predicted did arrive - so the memorial Cook
has been postponed. The Memorial Toast was the last of my 15 year old
Laphroaig - about 6 ozs. Pic not taken.

See you around, Jack!

It was picture-perfect in St. Louis today, partly cloudy and nearly
60F. Fired up the WSM and did a butt, a corned beef point-cut brisket,
and a bunch of sausages that had been hanging around the freezer.
