long as my experimentation can't drag down the scores that count i'm in..

To reiterate: This turn-in will have NOTHING to do with how you do at the event. You will neither gain nor lose any points or ranking. You will not get any awards or trophies.

This is STRICTLY an informal service for the competitors.

i think The Ed Travers Band, a local Jimmy Buffet cover band is scheduled to appear on the 26th! they usually have a margarita day in sayville in the summer but it was rained out this year. i think they rescheduled them for the weekend of the competition. if so this should be ALOT of fun! they have a huge following. bring limes!!!

Robert was planning on using pre-made so I hope it's not an issue...Eric can answer that one :biggrin:

With respect to collecting for the Sayville Food Pantry . . .

For many of us this competition is in our backyard and I am certain that like me, many will be inviting friends to stop by, hang, eat, and drink with us.

Ask them, or outright tell them to bring canned foods, dry goods, etc., to enhance the collection.

Excellent idea! Thanks for the tip!

Pre-made dough for the pizza category is fine.

Thanks Eric. I thought it was a bonehead question and was just asking to be sure. I was surprised when you needed a clarification, but glad I asked. ex

Hello!

As I hope that you are aware, we are working with Breast Cancer Help as our charity of choice at the Battle of the BBQ Brethren.

A number of very generous donations were made to the charity for raffles to be held over the weekend. We would like to take a minute to thank the donors and let you know what is being raffled off.

There is one caveat. This is a list of what is PLANNED to be raffled. As some of the items are not yet in hand I am not guaranteeing that everything will be there. I will update as things arrive.

On with the show:

Large Big Green Egg with Eggcessories from Big Green Egg

Open Range Smoker from Ace of Hearts BBQ

UDS from Shane and Wyatt (2 very generous members of the BBQ Brethren)

Thermometers from Thermoworks

Thermometers from Maverick

Various Sauces

Various BBQ Related Books

If you would like to donate something for the raffles your effort would be greatly appreciated. If you know someone that we should contact, please let us know.

Eric
