Maybe this is a dumb question but it is one that is burning inside both my brother and I. We are a new team. We have only cooked in one official competition. Because of work related commitments we were not able to get to any competitions after July. Lord knows we have cooked at least a dozen mock competitions where we have purchased turn in boxes, timed ourselves, and presented our Q to friends and neighbors to judge our stuff. We have made investments in good equipment, we have become certified judges, we practice at least twice a month, and read everything we can about championship bbq, but neigher my brother or I feel like we are making any progress. How does a team progress from newbies to champions? I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea. We enjoy the competiton and comradery that goes along with it and will never be dissapointed or loose a minute of sleep over not winning. We would just love to know what it would take to get to the next level and if what we are doing is putting us on the right path.
