Looking for Mentor/Team - Houston Area

Long time backyard cooker here, looking to get into competition. I'd like to find a mentor to help me learn the ropes, or a team that needs a good gopher. Travel isn't a problem, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to get my feet wet, including kicking in financially. I'll work as hard as anyone, I'm pretty easy to get along with, and I do have some chops...just not competition tested.

Anyone that could use someone like myself, please give me a shout. TIA
