The folks at Christ Lutheran Church in Loebau were selling BBQ chicken plates today. Naturally, we wanted to pick some up, so we headed in that direction a little before 5pm. There were already about two dozen cars in line when we arrived.
I made Margie wait in the drive-thru line while I headed to the pits to pester the folks over there with my cameras. As you can see in the photo with the row of pits open, they had prepared a bunch of chickens (and that wasn’t even all of them).
It’s a real treat to see these direct-heat pits in action, and the smell… it’ll make your mouth water. Our chickens were delicious!
The guys at the pits wanted to charge me $1 per photo, but I told ’em we’d buy one plate per photo. I counted my photos, and unfortunately, we didn’t come home with enough plates to cover all the photos. Guess we’ll have to go back next year and buy more!
