Thanks IFZBC! Actually, I had been thinking about a group soup cook anyway for January, and I googled to see if there was a National Soup Month, and it just happened to fall in place. Not trying to get ahead of the game or anything, but I’d love to do something involving stir frys next, either in a wok or on the griddle….🧐 That’d be another good one for the winter.

My 2 cents. I like the food-oriented ones better because not everyone has an offset, a griddle or a wok etc.

[Panhead John]

Yeah, I understand. It’s always best to try and do something with maximum participation. Sometimes it’s a little hard to do though, involving everyone. I was on the sidelines too for the Pellet Pooper VS Stick Burner Smackdown. But it was still a lot of fun!

[STEbbq]

Oh yes. Everything is super fun. Just sharing the months in the hope it is handy.

[DavidNorcross]

Yeah…Baking is February. Richard Chrz would not stand a chance!

[Richard Chrz]

Yeah, I have 0 experience in baking. 😜

Some of those get more interesting if you remove the commas.... "Baking breakfast potato snack foods"

[Murdy]

April is Garden Foods?

Apparently, this was chosen by someone in the southern hemisphere?

Somehow I signed up for a food holiday calendar integration on my Google calendar. Every day I get to see what foods I should be celebrating that day!
