We're still working all the meat out of our system from Saturday's Gothamist-Serious Eats/AHT QBQ BBQ II, but we hope that those of you who made it had a good time. Thankfully, the forecasted rain held off as we served about 150 pounds of beef (600 burgers) during the event. A special thanks to Harry Hawk, the staff at Water Taxi Beach and some assistants from Gothamist, Serious Eats and A Hamburger Today, Six Apart, and for everyone who came out for the event. Apologies for the early line and beer flow issues.

For additional coverage, check out Adam's wrap-up at AHT, Jason Perlow's excellent in-depth coverage at Off the Broiler (he's got audio, video, and photos) and that was probably awkward's post about the event.

A few more photos after the jump.

I just threw up after looking at that 3rd picture.

Yea, that looks like what the tourists leave on the Bourbon street sidewalks after drinking too many Hurricanes and eating too much gumbo.

Why weren't there any veggie options???

Does anyone know anything about the squirrel hold-up t-shirt in 5th picture? I like that shirt.

I threw up after reading you retards make comments here. Gothamist totally needs to stop allowing "guests" to post on this site.

Robot! I think that's a Threadless Shirt. Lemme check.... Hmmmm I couldn't find it on their site, maybe its sold out? At any rate you might wanna check threadless shirts on ebay, sometimes ppl sell the sold out designs there. Ah yes, here it be, sold out:

Spending 3 x 30 minutes in line because burgers were made only one choice at time wasn't exactly my idea of a burger tasting bash so I ended up with 3 very greasy butter burgers at once. At least there was some free beer and Jen looked cute with Audreys sunglasses.

that pimento burger looks gooooooooood

...as does jen.

[6] shirt is also available on defunker: http://www.defunker.com/shirts/nuts/male/ who has a resell deal with threadless.

those things look like the two squirrels that were used in sony's PSP viral campaign.

I have met the staff of Gothamist, had a burger covered in butter, and had two photos featured in an article. I can die a happy man. Thank you Six Apart!
