Hey everyone. Its been a while since I've been on. I got a new job and they have forums blocked crazy, but I'm pretty sure I can get this one unblocked since our company now has a competition BBQ team :clap2:!
Anyways, we work at an IT company in Stockbridge and we all love to BBQ and smoke, so we decided to enter the Butts Co. Smokin' Pork n Butts competition this past weekend. It was an awesome time (even though the weather was terrible). We ended up with 4th place in backyard pulled pork and 5th place in ribs!!! Who would have thought. I have to thank a lot of you who have provided endless amounts of knowledge, tips and tricks. Here are some pics...feedback is welcomed.
So our company is called OnsiteRIS (the RIS stands for Retail Information Systems) so our BBQ team is OnsiteRIBS. I googled "cartoon pig" and used the 2nd one that came up...and then realized at the comp that it's the same pig on Wizzy's rub :doh: (sorry Mr. Wizzy...let me know if you are :mad2.
ABTs for appetizers...big hit with the neighbors. I think this could have taken the "anything but" contest. I started using the Sante Fe blend cream cheese, which really takes it up a notch.
Here are the smokers. Butts were done on the UDSs. They held their temp like it was their job...well I guess it is their job.
Here is the 4th-place pulled pork
And the 5th-place ribs...
They started calling teams at 10th place and we thought "well, at least we are not last". When they got to 5th or 6th place, we remembered that there were more than 10 teams (18 backyard teams I think), so we figured that we must have done worse than 10th...and then...4th place baby!!!
Trophies hanging next to the IT certification plaques. We strive to be a well-rounded company...
