There is no limit on the number of bags that can be ordered but If you’re going to order more than 99 bags of anyone flavor you must place a second order for that flavor.
All orders will be placed by credit card on the RMBBQA website with no refunds - http://rmbbqa.org via the Members Only page (must login to site).
To facilitate picking up the orders there will be two pick up days (Saturday and Sunday). See timeline below. I will be there both days.
Please Note: It is imperative that all orders be picked up on time. Don will be charging $1 per bag for each day the order is not picked up by the designated date. Please make arrangements for someone to pick up your order if you are unable to pick it up yourself.

April 1 (Friday) 8am - Pellet ordering begins.
April 15 (Friday) - Pellet ordering closes.
April 28 (Thursday) - The pellet delivery arrives at Don’s Shop.
