several of the suggestions dont seem to reflect the feedback i was hearing... Interesting. I know i was still on my way to the hotel while the meeting was going on, so i didn't hear all the input.... But many of these requested changes dont seem to mesh with accounts i heard after the meeting. How are the recommendations arrived at?
What I liked was the change of wording for identifiable .

Oh and Paul Kirk - No Report. Welcome back, buddy!!!
Change to Rule 6
Fires shall be of wood, wood pellets, charcoal or propane gas.
That should be an interesting discussion.
I'm in!!And why should they reflect the joke of a meeting that is held at the banquet each year? Do you think even .1% of the membership was represented? Hold it in a hotel with no dial in or Web conferencing capabilities for those who aren't traveling to the banquet location. Hold it on Friday afternoon when some people who are going to attend the banquet are still traveling. What kind of a representation should be expected with a recipe like that?
#1 recommendation on the meeting agenda should be how to get quality rules feedback from the membership. I'm betting that there aren't hundreds of cook teams begging to cook white meat chicken. While I'm on the topic of chicken, most teams will tell you that it is probably the hardest to figure out and yet the easiest KCBS meat to cook. I think the entry offers its own set of challenges unique to the other three regardless if you are turning in thighs, breasts, wings or lollypops legs (which has always surprised me that it isn't sculpting). I'm going to start a "save the breasts" campaign.
Yeah, let's require the teams to cook 3 whole chickens... Nothing like adding expense to the Cook Teams in today's economy... I am ok with requiring white and dark meat, but let the cooks determine what they are going to cook.
What is next, telling the Teams that we have to cook 4 Butts,4 Racks of Ribs and 4 Briskets ??
