Challenge #1: ‘Que for Two Haiku
The first of the weekly challenges for the “Famous Fans” is to write a haiku about the ‘Que for Two deal. This gargantuan platter comes with half a chicken, four ribs, your choice of brisket, chopped pork or a hot link, two corn muffins, fries and your choice of one more side. Half a chicken is what mere mortal restaurants would serve two people. But a super hero like Famous Dave will always go beyond the ordinary! It really is way too much for two human appetites. Two hippos, maybe (no offence to any couples out there who may have polished one off). It would be a nice meal for three adults. But ‘Que for Three lacks the rhyme and just doesn’t have the same ring. It would even do for two adults and two young children. But I really don’t think ‘Que for The-Typical-Suburban-Family-Hit-Hard-By-The-Global-Recession would do well in advertising. So, for two, it’s a great deal. For three, it’s a steal. Either way, it’s one killer of a meal!
Now that I got the rhyming out of the way, please enjoy my haiku, BarBeQuethMinistry! style:
Major props go out to youth group alum, David, for working his mad skills to put this awesome video together (more zany vids are planned for the campaign–stay tuned)! This challenge is open to you, as well! Famous Dave’s and JRP are following the BarBeQuethMinistry! and you could win some cool prizes along the way. Just leave your haiku (three lines: the first with five syllables, second with seven, third with five) as a comment and stay tuned for coming challenges. Of course, please let me know if you and a friend (or two) attempt to take on the ‘Que for Two!
*blots tears from eyes*
In case you need that Haiku in print:
Famous ‘Que for Two
It’s much more than two can eat
But two rhymes with ‘que
haha! YES!!! that was awesome!! and with my skills it wont be long until am discovered by somebody famous!! (maybe even famous dave.. hmm..) *fingers crossed*!!!
WOW, great video!!
Wow. lol That was hilarious. Pretty sure those people weren’t even acting. They were really touched!
You’re right, Becka. As soon as we were done filming the recital, it was clear that we were in the midst of a very special moment. It was almost like the last night of summer camp. We needed to capture their thoughts. Their pure, raw emotions.
It was so very special.
lol It made me smile!
I am glad you are having a good time with your advertising! 
thats great! way to start with a bang!
I was so honored to be able to introduce you. Thank you, Jay. By the way, the haiku was Pure Genius. Very nice.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen you all. What a way to reunite!
I felt like I was there. Haha…
Prince, you put on your game show host voice and just made it happen. I owe you. Wait, you pretty much owe me your life so … nevermind.
Leanne, coming in from the south! Thanks for coming by! As you can see, we’re still a tad goofy. Please tell your family I said hi!
never heard of Famous Dave’s where is the closest one to Moreno Valley. Where can i pick up some sauce.
The nearest one to Moreno Valley, CA is in Redlands. Sauces are available in many grocers and wholesale clubs, or can be ordered online at http://www.famousbbq.com.
Hey, Donny, thanks for coming by. There’s one in Redlands and you can find their sauces at Stater Bros and, I think, Vons.
That truly was an inspiration. I mean, who knew our youth group had such a plethora of talented actors/actresses??
haha so this made me laugh pretty hard and Bekah’s so right!! yeah had to go to rudy’s today and well it was another sad sad disapontements as far as BBQ goes so please PLEASE PLEASE Famous Dave open one in Lubbock Tx
Ryan, any relation to you-know-who?
Poco, actually we don’t have any good actors/actresses. None whatsoever. What you saw was pure, raw emotion.
Clint, I reviewed Rudy’s (you can search the BBQthMinistry in the sidebar) and had a nice experience. Mostly ambience, I guess. Pretty much lacking in the moisture department. Rudy can’t hang with Dave, though. Keep hope alive for FD to come to Lubbock.
wow…you have some pretty emotional youth then! lol.
so…i decided to be the first (not including the bbq director himself) commentor to add their own personal haiku. yes, ladies and gentlemen, after slaving for hours, may i present…uhm, myself since i dont have any one to introduce me…*clears throat*
Want some FAMOUS stuff?
Try the “Que for Two” by Dave
It’s more than enough!
*bows. and walks away*
*rousing applause*
Wow, Zaza, I didn’t know you had it in you.
Well Jay, mommyof3 and I have been staying up late working on Haiku’s so here goes:

Woah, you guys are poets and I didn’t even know it! I like the last one best.
Wow Jay. I’m so touched… I envy my youthgroup for having such a tender moment and I wasn’t there for the blessing. *voice cracking* You’ve… touched the lives… of so many! wow.
Okay so I had another brillian moment *at least I think it’s brilliant*

Both ways are a steal!
