Got Wood.
I did my first comp two weekends ago at Smoke on the water at lake Shawnee. Needless to say I learned a lot about my cooking and what I need to try and improve. Out of 50 teams I got 8th overall. 12th in chicken, 34th in ribs which I overcooked, 10th in pork and 4th in brisket. Main thing I took from this contest is to learn to time things better. I had a question about brisket. I used a cheap brisket from the store but noticed that some of you use a prime brisket. Would it be worth it to find a better brisket or is it the cooking method. Sorry for the long post!
