Title: 2nd Competition This Weekend - UPDATED W/ PICS
Post by: begolf25 on August 03, 2010, 01:49:47 PM
Got our second competition coming up this weekend. It is another one day event with only ribs and chicken. This is our last one day even before we have our first overnight competition with ribs, chicken, pork and brisket early next month. Hoping to have good results but more importantly a good time. Here is where the competition is in case anyone will be in the area.

Did some practice ribs this weekend. Sorry, didn't get a chance to take any pictures of the cut product before they were gone.

Ricks correct, the ribs look great. I checked to see how far to get there, four hours is a bit too far or I would come cheer you on. Good luck!

Good luck Bryan!

I've got one in three weekends, but first rafting down the Ocoee, then cooking for my fly fishing buddies, then the contest.

Man those ribs look like money to me!  Good luck, Bryan.  I have little doubt that if you present ribs like the ones shown here that you and your team will be taking the walk at then the end.

Considering the competition is being held at a winery and sponsored by a local brewery that will have a beer garden set-up with free beer to all competitors, this will probably the biggest factor! You hit the nail right on the head!

The rumors are true. We took 4th in ribs! We had a great time. There was a total of 14 teams. Some pretty good well established ones in our area were competing. Our chicken didn't fair as well, we finished 11th there even though we thought it was pretty good. This competition thing is very addictive. We also sold about 15 bottles of our sauce which we were very happy with.

Here are a few pics. You can check out the rest here...

We handed out samples once we sent the boxes to the judges. Everything was gone in 5 minutes and the feedback was very good.

CRG,

Steve and I both played baseball from little league to college. During the course of the season you go through "slumps" of not playing very well. There are a lot of different things players will do to get out of the slump. They call whatever they do a "Slumpbuster". Now that our baseball careers are well over and done we figured the best way to break the "slump" of everyday life is to cook bbq. Hence the name Slumpbuster BBQ.
