Last practice pics before Wildomar

[Bigmista]

I'm trying to get it right y'all. Mrs. Mista will strangle me if I make her taste anymore BBQ. The neighbors are happy though.

What do you think?

Last minute tips? Judges?

Neil, the only tip I can give you is to leave room in the van for the trophies!

I think I want to be your neighbor & possibly become a CBJ so I can taste that.

That chicken looks great! What temp did you finally settle on - closer to 310 or 325+? Ribs look great as well. Nicely done!

Ended up being 275 to 295 on the ranch kettle.

Note to self: Sell house, move to Long Beach, California and be Neil's official BBQ taster. That looks great Bro.

Looks great Neil. Good luck at the contest!

 

[Bigmista]

Thanx guys!

I think I have a process I can repeat now. Let's hope the judges are impressed with it.

Just call me Mr. Rogers - won't you be my neighbor?

It all looks great - those thighs are outta control!:thumb:

Looks great. My only suggestion would be to try for a darker color for the chicken skin. As it is they look nice, and obviously the bite through is there, but they don't really look bbq'ed. A darker skin would also mean more flavor.

I pulled them at 182. Don't know how I could get them any darker without drying them out.

The color looks a lot more red to me than your other attempts. Is that just the camera, or did you make a change this time? In any case, they look great! Good job bro!
