I was honored to be asked to cook the beef and beans for the Virden Centennial Barbecue. The beans and beef turned out just right. We served over 700 people. I met up with old friends and danced a few dances.
We cooked the beans in the barbecue pit. Most people were surprised at that. A barbecue pit is actually just a large pressure cooker. The beans don't scorch and turn out great. We cooked 5 canning pots with a total of 50 lbs. of beans.
We had a great crew shedding the beef.
We served over 700 people. We had beef, beans, cole slaw. corn on the cob, watermelon and brownies.
Some of our high school friends, Colleen Lunt,Geralyn Powers, Richard Lunt, Melanie Price, Marla Lunt, Robert Lunt and Debra Rhoton. There were other friends there too, but they weren't there when we took this photo. It was so good to see everyone.
This beautiful lady asked me to dance. We had a good time, thanks to the great band who played, Frank Fox, Norman Wright, Buddy Jensen and Sharlene Jensen.
The reunion was a huge success. Everyone who came enjoyed the company and the food. Thanks to all who worked so hard to make this happen.
