CBC Saunders Real Estate Annual BBQ 2010

The annual CBCSRE BBQ corporate event was recently held where over 250 attendees enjoyed a huge fare of homemade BBQ, Cowboy Beans, Cole slaw, and desserts.The entire buffet was catered by the Saunders Cook Team; and Dean, Gina, and Lauren Saunders. The Saunders Cook Team annually cooks and smokes dozens of pork butts and slabs of ribs that are slow-cooked and tended to for over 24 hours in the huge CBC Saunders Real Estate BBQ Smoker Grille.

This creates BBQ that would compete with the best! The social event is planned every year for clients, potential clients, and press as a "thank you" for a good year.

Each year, Dean commissions a painting of an "old Florida" scene of his choosing, to be painted by acclaimed naturalist and landscape artist, Thomas Brooks. At the BBQ event, the current year's painting is unveiled.
