Roll Call. Inside 30 days. NYC BBQ Cook-Off, Staten Island, NY - Page 4

I just spoke with Frank over at Richmondtown and he told me that they wont have as much meat as last year to give out to us for the PC and we should only expect about 10lbs from them.

If you are doing PC's have some extra team members on hand to help. You are responsible for passing out the samples from your set up, and its during the same time as KCBS turn ins. Can get very hectic if you are a 1-2 person team.

No i actually didnt since this is my first contest I have been in contact with him and Eze regarding some items essentially because this is all new to me. I would say that they have been more then helpful with the items i have brought up so i dont know if someone with some experience who can speak better regarding it would want too. Here is his email if anyone wants to run with it.

Just a heads up. I spoke with one of the guys from Richmond Town. I just wanted to ensure that I could pre-trim my meats. Just like the KCBS rules indicate. I got confirmation via email that pre-trimming is fine, just no pre-seasoning.

This is fully what I expected, but just wanted to ensure that some meat inspector doesnt have a stick up his rear if I pre-trim.

See you all next Friday.

If the Muller's are doing the meat inspection, there will be no issues with pre-trimmed meats. I cook 5 or 6 comps a year that they rep and I pre-trim with no issues. They are great reps.

joemat · 04-01-2014, 08:09 PM

Does anyone know how many teams will be competing?

Was wondering how this year will compare to last.

blackeyedpig · 04-01-2014, 09:31 PM

Latham House BBQ will be there. I spoke with Frank last Thursday and he said they had closed the comp. to new teams because they are up to 39. However, he said several teams are only coming to do PC on Saturday.

As someone who did this comp last year (as Bacanak BBQ) I will say that PC was a disaster for a small team like ours. The turn out is huge which is great for them but awful for the teams because you'll have a line at your spot, a large line, and you'll be trying to prep your 12:30, 1:00 and 1:30 turn in's while people clammer for a small cup of pulled pork. If they'd start the PC at 1:35 I'd consider it but set up the way it is I'm passing this year. Come by my site at 1:35 and I'll give away most of what I've cooked but leave me alone until then.

And yes, Anthony and Richmond County Pit Bros. did win PC last year and the home field advantage obviously had something to do with that BUT Anthony's a good guy and I was glad to see him walk away with the $$$.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there. Let's hope for a warm, dry couple of days.

Well the new pit finally arrived. Ordered it back on December 2nd. I uncrated it today and put the wheels on. Solid as a tank.

Staten Island will be the first real cook. Will get it seasoned tomorrow and try to do a test cook. Gonna be rough not having a lot of hours with it but I will have my BGE's as well. It will be a fun time anyway. Looking forward to seeing you guy's.
