Second batch of pulled pork came out of crock pot this morning. Normally this process calls for shredding the meat with 2 forks, hence the name "pulled" pork. However, this stuff was falling apart as it was picked up with the tongs. It's THAT TENDER!

One of our regulars just left after having the pork sandwich and cole slaw and his free cup of eggnog. He ordered a second eggnog because he said it was so much better than any eggnog that he purchased from a market in America. I think maybe he forgot that commercially available eggnog from the market is not loaded with premium Bourbon. ;)

Well, this being Thailand, our plans for Christmas have changed. TW now has decided it's too cold to go to Chiang Khan as we had planned. Now we'll be OPEN on Christmas day and serving a simple Christmas meal consisting of smoked ham, green bean casserole, 3 cheese macaroni casserole, a soft roll, and Kahlua brownie for dessert. All for 295 baht INCLUDING your choice of ANY drink the house serves. Nothing is excluded. You can have anything from Gentleman Jack Daniels, Belgian or domestic beer, wine, to water. So, if you're not already locked into another place with a firm reservation, consider coming in to our place. No reservation necessary.

Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah!

Bubba and Jun

The wife and I were in Bubba's Friday afternoon and had the BBQ pulled pork sandwiches with cole slaw. Outstanding, June! Bubba is also to be commended for his selection of Belgian beers. He has seven available, including the classics Duvel and Delirium Tremens. I had the De Graal at lunch and it was delicious. It should also be noted that he serves those beers in style appropriate glassware. Lovers of real beer will know what I'm talking about. Maybe make it for Christmas dinner.

SGT and Mosquito, sorry we missed you guys. If was a very enjoyable day. Jun and I had previously planned to go up country a bit and celebrate in Chiang Khan, but it's just too darn chilly for that. Especially for a Thai. We planned our Christmas dinner here at the last minute, knowing that many folks already had plans. We also knew there were a core of a few regulars who have also become good friends that would show up no matter what we offered. So, we had a really nice day that was every bit as enjoyable as a family get together back home (and more enjoyable than some I've had ;) ).

A very amusing development occurred in the late afternoon. A police check point is regularly set up at the traffic light to the south of our location. The normal routine for these set ups is for one or more officers to be positioned a couple hundred meters or so before the check point to catch the u-turning potential offenders. That "ideal" location at this check point is right in front of our place, where they can hide in the recesses of the front patios. One officer in particular has had this post for many months now. In the hot summer months we would always give him cold water (and the occasional cold beer). The guy speaks a little English and I'm sure he was aware yesterday was a western holiday. So, any farang passing by on motorbike without helmet he was grabbing, literally, and walking them into our place while telling them, "You go here, no pay fine". He was smiling the whole time, so I think it was just his way of trying to participate in our holiday. One guy from France who lives in Vientiane, in Udon with his Laos girlfriend, was quite amused. He fit right in with the crowd and we had some nice conversation (in addition to getting some good info on life in Laos).

All in all, a very nice Christmas indeed, could not have asked for more.

Still have about 500ml of eggnog left. Now half price - 60b per cup (less than the cost to make it). If it doesn't sell, I'll have to drink it all, so please help!

Delicious BBQ pulled pork sandwiches available again.

New Year's Belgian Beer special: Now through the end of the year, buy 2, get 1 free (of same or lesser value).

We ran out of chili and cole slaw yesterday. Apologies to those who were disappointed. We made new batches of each last night, in addition to yet another batch of BBQ pulled pork. It has been a huge hit, and why not, it's delicious AND quite affordable. Big Rick, you tuned in?

Haven't checked the NFL playoff schedule yet to see if it fits at all with our opening times. We can always make special arrangements if enough people are interested, AND we can make special food items available, like Hot Wings and Potato Skins. Any requests?

Worthy of another post, BELGIAN BEER YEAR END SPECIAL: Buy 2, get 1 free (of equal or lesser value). Through this Sunday, and limited to stock on hand.

Preview of coming attractions (next week): Bubba's Santa Fe DOUBLE patty Chipotle Jalapeno Cheese Burger

Sorry, ding, no delivery outside Thailand. :lol: I hope you were able to connect with the fellow about dog adoption. Years ago I had to find a home for my beloved Rottweiler after a divorce. It was much tougher than saying good bye to the wife.

We will be CLOSED next Wednesday and Thursday, 1 & 2 January (in addition to our normal Monday and Tuesday closing). So, reopen Friday, 3 January. Jun has relatives from Chiang Mai in town. Grandma, age 86, wont be around for too many more of these get togethers, so I have to respect Jun's wishes.

Just got the Superbowl XLVIII pool started today. Come get your square(s) now! We'll be open 6AM on 3 February for the big event. Had a really nice turnout last year. We'll be better prepared this year with lots of nice goodies available.

I'm in for a square or two. Try to catch up with you soon. Too many roadblocks between town and home.

We've hired a live band, dancers, and mega watt karaoke set up to go and share with the neighbors in Jun's village until the wee hours of the morn. ;) Happy New Year!

Well, back from the village. Enough celebrating to last for awhile, I hope. Thought about all the complaints I read here about getting cold food as I watched Thais nibble on a table of food that sat outside, uncovered, for hours on end. Stone cold French fries, chicken, unidentifiable substances, shared with flies and other creepy crawlies, didn't bother them at all. People who have never even seen the inside of a western food establishment really could care less about "hot" food, because there seems to be no urgency in eating the freshly prepared stuff either.

Now, for HOT food, literally AND figuratively... this weekend's special... Bubba's Santa Fe Chipotle Double Burger. TWO beef patties seasoned with New Mexico smoked peppers, TWO slices of jalapeno jack cheese, and grilled onions served on a toasted bun... 195 baht.

Busy, more later.

Come join us!

Look forward to seeing you and the family, Ding.

Tuesday morning, the 7th, is the BCS National Championship between Florida State and Auburn (8:30 AM). If enough people want to get together we can open up and serve grub and refreshments. Post or PM by Sunday afternoon.
