Wasn't sure of the rules for IBCA so called and talked to Lynn today (nice Lady) and it is ok to trim meat etc., just no marinating or injection and pellets are fine.

Plan on bringing over cooking trailer on Friday AM and then coming back in late afternoon to register and pay. See yall there.

Bit cramped but over 75 teams are crammed in. Came home to sleep but will return in the AM to start cooking. Met Andy and crowd, could prove interesting. Left before calcutta as I need some sleep at my age.

Yep them boys put out some good food. Not a bad finish for going out and buying ribs at 9:30 Saturday morning.

I turned in damn good brisket. But with this many teams and quite a few really good IBCA cooks it was a tough field.

Not bad for me to not even start cooking until 7:30 AM Saturday.

The empty bottles of Crown, Beam, various beer cans and bottles were a sign of a good time though. It was great to see Wayne and Jeff again and meet Andy in person. Hopefully I learned something set up next to them. I got to make it North this year to hang with these boys.

Might want to ask Jeff, Wayne and Andy since they kicked our butts.

It's alot more laid back and simple. Chicken half or 2 if there are alot of teams. Spares only and brisket. Turn-in times this comp were 1:00, 2:30 & 4:00, so plenty of time.
