Garry Maddox BBQ Philadelphia, PA
 

We are in, anyone coming?

Only if you bring the espresso:biggrin:

Kind of like you and your lightsaber, I never leave home without it.

Pffft you gotta do better than that:rolleyes::tongue:

Rhapsody in Blue Smoke will be there. It's a great event, but nothing like a KCBS contest, so my advice to first timers for this one is to just have fun. Take lots of pictures next to the ballpark, cook alot of food, share with the other teams and have fun. Stop by and say hey if I don't get to you first. Some of the bigger more serious teams get really frustrated here, and others think its a blast and don't miss it. Be like the latter, its a great time.

I'll be there, hope Fay isn't. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

What could they get frustrated about?

Who are these bigger, more serious teams and why are they frustrated?

jon, you've been there. When I say bigger, I mean the well traveled kcbs teams. Its gotten better but alot of people have had issues about judging and procedures. Last year they did that " 2 highest scores at the table move on" type thing. I am not a fan of this type of judging at all. I don't know how they will be doing it this year, but they are only doing one round, which should really make things interesting because before no one knew there scores after one round. Again, go in with the idea to have fun and you will have a great time.

weather is calling for 86 and mostly sunny. Hopefully that holds true.

Judging in KCBS is terrible also, no worries about judging, you never expect quality. I am only shocked if the judging is good, not poor. I always have a great time, I am landing at 10 am in philly from Nashville, TN and meeting my team at the comp. I just hope one of us stays sober enough to drive home.

Ant, I'm trying to remember if any of those guys have been there and I'm drawing a blank. It seems like it's the usual gang every year, with a few new faces. It's usually the same weekend as Bel Air, or New Holland as is the case this year, and the KCBS teams go there. I prefer to do this one because I like the one day event for a change of pace ,the atmosphere is really cool, and it's for a great cause. Did I mention that the grand prize is cool too? :wink:

When is it? Do not know if I can attend

I bet you can here is the contact info.
