If the Boston Hills comp is anything like it was last year, the new teams are in for a real treat. The staff treated the teams like kings. Definitely one of the best comps we attended last year!!!! :thumb: Anyone that misses this comp should really have thier gray matter looked at.

Add the following teams to the lineup:

Nickel City Smokers
Buffalo Meatheads
Fat Guys and a Little Smoke
Ique
Yabba Dabba Que!
Full Pull Chicken

We've got 18 teams registered so far, and have room for 50 teams. I have been contacted by 12 teams that their entries are on the way. I noticed on the Roc City Thread, there are 52 KCBS Teams registered. Drawing from the same region leads me to project that Boston Hills will sell out.

I'm looking for the following entries in the mail:

Good Smoke BBQ
Smoke On Wheels
Jacked Up BBQ
Diva Q
Big Belly BBQ
Up In Smoke
Smoke This!
Desperado's Barbecue
Donnie's Smokehouse

With a 50 team field, we're going to be awarding trophies and prizes through 10th place, and may give honorable mention ribbons through 15th place.

New for this year, is People's Choice. Here's the deal: its free to enter, and the meat is provided. You cook it, serve it, and collect your own votes. 50% of the net profit on tickets sold will be paid to 1st Place. 2nd Place will get 25%. The top two teams in each category, will be quite pleased with the paycheck. People's Choice will take place from 3-4 pm each day. Pork Shoulders (2) on Sat, and Chicken Wings (48) on Sun.

At the meeting last night, the Committee agreed to supply all competitors FREE ICE throughout the weekend!

The Boston Hills committee is setting the bar for BBQ competitions. Anyone that misses this comp should be ashamed of themselves. The inaugural competiton was amazing. The committee bent over backwards to make sure the teams felt welcome and had everything they needed. If this continues, we will be a competitor at Boston Hills for life. :thumb: Keep up the good work!!!!

 

[bbqpitstop]

[The Giggler]

Sounds like fun. If only Boston Hills was closer to....Boston! :becky: It's a long drive for me, not to mention the $136 in tolls to get the RV and smoker out there. Will be in Rochester though...
