Battle of the BBQ Brethren, Sayville, NY - Oct 24-26, 2008

Results

Ok, before I get the results out I need to thank a few people. First off, without the Chamber of Commerce in Sayville this event wouldn't have happened. Without Phil's having created and supported the Brethren there would be no Battle of the BBQ Brethren. Sled, Julie, Wes, Greg and Phil all put in a lot of time and effort ensuring that the event went off smoothly.

Ken, Kathy, Don, Leslie, Linda and Jerry were our reps and they were invaluable. They deserve a lot of credit for ensuring that all of our mistakes were corrected before they got to you.

It would be a horrible breach of etiquette to leave out the teams, who spend so much of their time, money and energy supporting the hobby that we all love. Of the teams, I would specifically like to thank the Spicy Cracker National Brethren Team Dot Com for being gracious guests and flying in to join us.

My only regret was not being able to spend anytime with the teams. Heck, I barely saw Ted and he was judging.

Grilling:

First Place: Blazing Nuttz in their second competition
Second Place: Long Island Luau in their first competition
