What I learned last year. I thought my burnt ends were realy good but just wasn't getting consistant good scores. I quit putting them in the second weekend in August. Here's results for the rest of the year.
Sams regional Indy 1st
Madison Ribberfest 19th...still scratching my head on this one.
Silverlake MI 3rd behind 2 No name teams Scottie and Quau.:mrgreen:
Royal Invitational 7th
Royal Open 6th
Sams Nationals 1st (180)
Needless to say the points of my briskies go into hamburger. I love my burnt ends but the judges don't so I leave them out.
I had burnt end in Silver Lake and so did Mike. I was fortunate. QUAU nailed his brisket and it was better than mine. In my opinion at least. Mine was good though.. :mrgreen:
