Roll Call. Inside 30 days. Smokin' On the Red 2/23 Bossier City (IBCA)

Hawg Father of Seoul · 02-13-2013, 06:58 AM

Smoke. Meats. Pig. will be there.

We have some family in Texarkana, so it is a good one for us. Who else is planning on going?

Hawg Father of Seoul · 02-20-2013, 01:13 PM

Will we be the only Brethren there?????

1FUNVET · 02-20-2013, 01:26 PM

I might be able to make it. Got a buddy of mine that lives in Shreveport and keeps wanting me to visit with him.

sdmiller72 · 02-20-2013, 04:13 PM

My first competition. I will be there. Looks like fun.

Carnivorous Endeavors BBQ · 02-20-2013, 04:36 PM

Barring any major catastrophes, I will be there. Last i heard we could see over 50 teams.

Let us know if you need any thing. We are newbies, but real geeks when it comes to BBQ.

sdmiller72 · 02-20-2013, 06:08 PM

Thanks, so far my biggest problem finding stuff are the larger chicken boxes. I think there may be a lot of teams and I've heard that when that happens they require you to turn in two halves.

Hawg Father of Seoul · 02-20-2013, 06:30 PM

They supply the boxes. Just might think about cooking an extra chicken (2 halves) to have more choices for turn ins.

We cooked two chickens last time and are thinking three this time, but may stick with two.

gmholler · 02-20-2013, 08:44 PM

Yes, don't worry about the boxes, your head judges are bringing them. And at first glance, it *looks* like there'll be more than 50 teams - so it'll likely be 2 chicken halves for turn-in, but don't hold that as gospel - after all, it's only Wednesday and a lot can happen between now & Friday!

Remember the MANDATORY cooks meeting at 6:30 on Friday - and there's a fish fry afterward. Come with your questions!

My gut feeling is we will have more than 50 teams. We might have more than 70.... We do have enough large chicken boxes for the contest. Good luck to everyone.

Thanks for the info. Looks like the weather is going to clear this afternoon, and Friday and Saturday should be rain-free.

Hawg Father of Seoul · 02-21-2013, 09:22 AM

Other IBCA organizers should take note of what is going on here. This is the second FIRST year contest that has a huge turn out this year.

Step 1. Add pulled pork to the contest.
Step 2. A $10,000 purse does not hurt. Irving advertised a $3k purse (not that there is any thing wrong with that).

Pork is a good category for us. Tough for me to drive very far and not have a pork category.

Carnivorous Endeavors BBQ · 02-21-2013, 02:35 PM

Hawg Father of Seoul,

I hate the pork category, mainly because my pork turn-in apparently sucks pretty bad. Maybe you can give me some pointers...after the contest of course.

For sure. I got a real tip from some one else, I'll pay it forward.
