Yesterday was one of our favorite days of the year - the DVCBQ!! For those of you who don't know, David and my birthdays are exactly one week apart. The DVCBQ tradition started when David and his best friend, Clayton, moved into a rental house in Dallas. We had a birthday/housewarming BBQ and had so much fun that we started having one each year in March for our birthdays. I'm not sure who dubbed it the DVCBQ, but the name has stuck and this year was the 4th annual! (DVCBQ stands for David, Victoria & Clayton BBQ)
As always, we have a ton of delicious food. David and I take care of the main dish, and our friends help out by bringing yummy sides. This year, I made the Pioneer Woman's Spicy Shredded Pork tacos. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS.

I used an 8 1/2 pound pork shoulder and slowly roasted it for about 6-7 hours. The final product basically shredded itself and was so tasty and flavorful! David also grilled about 60 chicken drumsticks because it's not a DVCBQ without something on the grill!
This year, we decided to get a keg of Shiner. And of course, our good friend, Zach, brought jell-o shots galore! I think he made a total of 120 jell-o shots...

You're never too old for a jell-o shot!
I think we had about 30 people over, and I think they'd all say it was a blast!
Our neighbors brought over a really tasty dip, and I got the recipe from her, so I thought I'd share it with you! We had it with tortilla chips, but I think it would be absolute perfection to have it with Fritos! Enjoy!

The pulled pork looks so good!!!! GOOD JOB! You need to post more pictures of the party! The dirt cakes were a huge hit today... I used yellow tulips and they turned out so cute! Thank you for the idea!! Brilliant! hahahaha
Thanks for hosting the wildly successful DVCBQ, the pork was greatness and I think David would agree, the Shiner was refreshing. Can't wait for next year......BTW my birthday is in March. My dream would be a DVSCBQ.....if only.
