I think we were the only breathren competing, if I missed some one let me know!
I wasn't real impressed with this contest, I doubt I'd put it on my list for next year.
 
That is a decent showing, for sure.

Proud of ya'.

Sorry it was not a "wonderful" contest.

Congrats Mike and Woodfellas! Ray-I didn't have the funds for this one!
 
There were some things that were allowed that didn't bode well with a few of the teams.
I didn't think having the judges tent open with out sides at the turn in table was proper either.
Ohh well...I could go on but would it really do any good?

Like what? I have always wanted to do this contest, but I couldnt have my trailer ready in time this year. Good thing though, because I had to have and emergency appendectomy last night.
 
That stinks. Given it was a State Championship you'd think they'd have their act together a bit better. You should let someone know as I am sure that whomever put the work in to putting it together would want to know how they can improve. No one wants to put on a less than great competition.

I hear ya. Although I've judged in an open tent before and I can honestly say I don't think it makes the slightest bit of difference. Once turn in's start - as a judge you're too busy to see who's turning stuff in when. Plus table capt's are changing boxes from tray to tray. If a judge really wanted to help a team out, all they'd really need to do is know their team number. Yeah, most comps change the number - but the number change is pretty obvious.

Maybe I'm naive, but I really don't think judges are out there to help/hurt specific teams. Every time I've judged the topic as always been good food - not who's here and who's not.

As a competitor, I remember being able to see the judges at turn ins at various competitions - never really gave it much thought.

That said, I do agree that some type of certain between the turn in table and judges is warranted if some cooks see an issue the judges seeing the competitors.
 
I think what he might be referring to is just consistency. KCBS makes such a big deal of their intellectual property and methods but yet they arent consistent between their own contest.

Last year in Council Bluffs, our turn in boxes were marked with our space numbers. I dont know where this got changed at as it went into the tray at turn in that way, at least I hope it got changed.
