Sounds like a great weekend, congrats to all who got calls

, good things happen to good people

I'm so proud of Andy, I don't even have words for it. Andy has become one of my all time best friends. He's the kind of friend who you'll do anything for and will do anything for you. Andy and I talk almost every day. Most of the time it is about BBQ, family, or this place... kind of a combo of the former two. We've learned a lot from each other and together.

It is exciting when we can cook together... do well... cook separately, and still do well. All I have to say is look out in 2009!!! We'll kick it off in Little Rock!

I'm also proud of Randy and the original Pork Pullin Plowboys team. Randy is the brother I never had. We started this BBQ journey in 2001. We've had plenty of average and less than average results. My first thought when we got our first call at the American Royal Open today was how far we've come from the beginning. To finish 16th in that field was a special moment that I was proud to share with my "brother".

BBQ Trailer and camper are cleaned and sitting in storage already. The lack of sleep is setting in.

Todd your a class act and I love hearing everyones success stories from where they began to where they are now. Congrats to Andy and Kim and everyone else who got a call today. I was down there thursday night and last night and it was fun to see everyone! Congrats again!

Jeff_in_KC · 10-05-2008, 11:05 PM

Great words, Todd! Tammy and I are also proud of Andy and Kim! What an absolute deserved finish for Smoke on Wheels!

Lee and I were very surprised today when we saw the sheets saying we finished 24th overall! That was with no calls! Oddly enough our brisket was what we thought was best today after we considered it the lowest of the four categories in the Invitational. Turns out, it was by far our lowest place (108th). Probably would have cracked the top 20 overall had it been in the same range as our other three categories.

It was a legendary weekend for Sloppy Creek! Thursday night, we hosted a poker party at our site and I won... I NEVER win at poker! Saturday morning, I caught my Spicewine on fire when grease burst into a roaring inferno not ten minutes before we were going to put ribs on it. Thankfully everything else had been wrapped, removed and placed into Lee's FEC to finish! Also luckily, the team next to us failed to show so we were able to pull the smoker over into the open area to prevent our canopy from catching on fire! Followed that up with a DAL in pork in the Invitational and took loads of chit from my brothers for that!

And for an encore, we decided that our sausage box should be made from puppy peters trimmed to form the words "EAT ME". No visit from the reps so... Finally, hitting 24th out of 459 teams was a great capper to the weekend!

It was awesome to meet several Brothers I had previously not gotten to meet - Vinny, Sled, Sean, Scott, Speedo, Jaberwabe, Transformer, Tom and Christy and DaChief! Sorry if I left out anyone... I'm totally beat and not thinking clearly! Got home from the Royal, unloaded and then trimmed and seasoned 18 pork butts to cook tomorrow in preparation of feeding 250 folks! I haven't even gotten to shower yet.

Cabntmkr1 · 10-06-2008, 05:42 AM

A huge congratulations to all of our Brethren who participated in the AR., and especially to those who got a call.
I have had the pleasure of meeting a few of you, and desire to meet more in the years to come.
To the ones I've met, Andy and Todd, WAY TO GO, BROS!

Andy, what a sweet success you have...RGC!
Todd, What can I say? You ARE a classy guy, and apparently very humble. That's refreshing...
