Edit: I need to thank Andy and the Bastey Boys. Andy ran a backyard BBQ contest in my town almost 3 years ago, and I had so much fun I took his BBQ class last year.

Muz - WTF is up with 24th place ? (Overall, Ribs & Brisket) ?

I think you've got a mutation of the dreaded Sledneck syndrome. This may be contagious and worse than the original.

yeah tell me about it.......

I am blaming it on the Guru........I knew having that much free time was gonna be a bad thing

then again maybe it was the fatgirl.......:icon_shy

It had nothing to do with those two quart vodka drinks you were salmin.:mrgreen:

i think it would be much nicer to refer to her as "muffintop" instead of "fatgirl" she only weighed 159

really goes to show that picking that 1 hour window of sleep at the right time can save you years of nightmares.

 

[Scottie]

Great contest once again! While the judges hate my food, I will probably be back just cause I love the contest and the whole region up there...

Wanted to say some special thanks to Brendan and Julie from Transformer BBQ for picking my foundation as the recipient of the rib bet. I should also say thanks for the Harpoon IPA that he handed me along with the check!!!

and another pig thanks go out to Gary and Michelle from Lunchmeat BBQ for donating their winnings from the buck a bone (People's Choice).

Also, in our exchange program.... I brought in Chicago style Italian Beefs and some of our Italian Sausage from Chi-Town... By how quick it lasted, I would say that youse guys are starved of good eatings out there!!! Just like I am starved of good beer...

Great seeing everyone again.

discretion is the better part of valor

lol


PS.....many thanks!

Anybody have contact info for the team "Butt Magicians?" I met them two years ago at Lake Placid and I didn't get thier number and/or email.... They are from the Rochester Area (Fairport) and I wanted to get in touch with them locally... PM me if you have any leads, or point them to me GR8BBQ at Rochester dot RR dot com.

Thanks, and congrats! Sorry I missed it this year!

 

[nancee]

I agree Scottie; it was another great event!!! The funny part was that the judges didn't hate our food...they just loved everyones'!!! As some know, we catered a big gig Friday so didn't get up there till real late. I think that and the demo probably did us in...but our helpers did good Friday night and we all had a blast. Sorry you will not be at Harpoon...I had told Lunchmeat all about those great Chicago hotdogs!!!
Good seeing you again
