The Summer Sizzler is a NEBS event where the categories change from year to year. Last year, the categories were lamb, fish, beef steak, and chef's choice featuring a Harpoon Beer.

The rules for garnish have typically been standard KCBS for all categories, except chef's choice which is open. I am generalizing of course, as there are specific rules and aspects that differ from the KCBS contest the day before, but that about sums it up.

In short, its a heluva lotta fun. And after the KCBS from the day before, I am always amazed how quickly you loose track of time. It goes super quick.

I sent an announcement to my team that we were accepted, and got HAMMERED about what the Summer Sizzler categories are for this year. Everyone is excited, and wants to start trying recipes and practicing.

I wonder how many teams who competed last year and re-applied this year were rejected ?

According to Fitz last Sunday, all of last years competitors that applied got in.

I'm pretty sure its going to be same as last year.

That surpises me. Part of what I thought made the Summer Sizzler so special, was that it gets switched up every year.

I would guess we'll be getting an email soon requesting the official entry form and fee, as well as an outline of the event. We'll have to sit tight and see.
