My name is Eric (Bubba) Burkhart and I am running for the Board of Directors this year. Although what the Board decides to do this year I unfortunately don't have a say in their decision. Everyone asks me on my opinion on this so here you go. Why are we even having a discussion on this? What I would like is to have a rule that simply says what I have to cook not how i can cook it. If we had a rule that said it must be a Boston Butt, Picnic or Whole Shoulder weighing a minimum of 5 lbs bone in or out. At a competition I don't have time to worry what someone else is doing. I believe that KCBS should only tell you what to cook not how to cook.

This is something that the sous-vide chicken people will be delighted to hear.

I clearly don't think he means you can use any type of cooking heat source like you would need electric for a stable sous vide heat. Just use the current charcoal, wood, pellets, etc it then you can manipulate the meat to your choosing after inspection.

In order to prevent a tie in the top 20 positions, the following procedures be applied. Look at the place scores of the contests of each tied team. The team with the most 1st place scores is the winner. If this does not break the tie, look to the eleventh contest cooked by the tied teams. This contest score will be factored in with the other ten contest scores. Should this not break the tie, continue with contest 12. Should a team not have cooked more than 10 contests, a zero will be input for the tie breaking contest. Here is a link to the original agenda for that meeting http://kcbs.us/news.php?id=305

Here is the final pork rule for 2014 passed by the board this evening
PORK: Pork is defined as Boston Butt, Boston Roast, Picnic and/or Whole Shoulder, weighing a minimum of four (4) pounds at time of inspection. After trimming, pork shall be cooked whole (bone in or bone out), however, once cooked, it may be separated and returned to the cooker at the cook's discretion. It may be turned in chopped, pulled, chunked, sliced or a combination of any of those."

According to the FDA the safe minimum cooking temp for pork is 145 degrees F with a 3 minute rest time

If you really want to get technical about it, the old rule said you can't return the butt to the smoker once you part it. My offset has a shelf that gets to 450. I could have parted the pork IN the smoker and grilled it - technically following the rule. I think KCBS is trying to strike a balance between communicating the intent of the rule vs. writing a 2 page contract for pork cooking. It does that, I think.

I sent the following as an email to bod:
Dear KCBS BOD members: PORK: Pork is defined as Boston Butt, Boston Roast, Picnic and/or Whole Shoulder, weighing a minimum of four (4) pounds at time of inspection. After trimming, pork shall be cooked whole (bone in or bone out), however, once cooked, it may be separated and returned to the cooker at the cook's discretion. It may be turned in chopped, pulled, chunked, sliced or a combination of any of those." The above referenced rule now legalizes the cooking of the money muscle or any other separated muscle of the pork shoulder. This statement is not based on semantics or liberal interpretation of the written rule, it is based on the rule as written. Nothing will prevent me, a cook, from presenting 4 each pork butts, bone in or bone out, weighing 4 pounds or more for inspection. Once the inspection is complete, I can, by rule, trim one or more of the butts so that only the money muscle remains and cook just that muscle. The trimmings can be placed in a cooler for another use in my restaurant or home or just thrown away. I am free, by the rule as written, to cook one or more of the whole butts for pulled and chunk and grill one or more of the money muscles, as trimmed, for inclusion as sliced pork. If I were so inclined, I could bring a couple of pork tenderloins in another cooler, and after inspection cook them and pass them as mm. Now this is cheating but it will be difficult to prove as the rule now allows me to cook just one of the muscles. I believe that this is what was happening in the past and was the reason for the old rule. Is this really what you wanted? The old rule left room for interpretation but this type of interpretation was against the intent of the rule. The new rule has the intent of allowing the cooking of any portion of the butt that the cook desires without misinterpretation or going against the intent of the rule. Thank you for your efforts but it is becoming more of a grilling and sauce contest and less about the art of BBQ with rule changes like this. Mack Yarbrough Smoke’n Ice |

In the end people are going to do what people are going to do. The rule is in place for 2014. Maybe it will be a disaster or maybe it will be the best thing since sliced bread. Time will tell.
