Here we go again!
It's the 3rd Occasional Backyard at the Rocke
This is a practice contest that Chris Rocke holds in the cul-de-sac in front of his home. It's a chance for us to hone our skills during the down time between contests. I'm especially looking forward to cooking with the spicewine (even if I am only cooking chicken for this one.)
We aer cooking Chicken, pork ribs, tri-tip and Anything Butt. We will have several CBJ's judging and they will also be filling out comment cards. It's a great chance to talk with judges and find out what they look for. Really a great learning experience.
Here are the teams that are participating...
Forschner Knives
BLQUE and Pelletheads.com have generously offered the March backyard event the following prizes for the top three teams -- i.e. Grand Champ, Reserve Champ and team no 3:
Eggs by the Bay and Darry Smith have donated a basket full of BBQ goodies (such thing as sauces, rubs, gloves, etc) for the Grand Champ.
This promises to be a great backyard event. I encourage everyone to try and organize contests like this in your area. The neighbors love it because we always cook enough to feed them. We also get a chance to taste other teams BBQ. This almost never happens at a contest.
Check back here and we will post all developments and the contest results.
