It's over!!! It's 8:47 pm---I'm drinking a Meyers and Diet Pepsi W/Lime and trying to keep my eyes open!!
Here is the Down Low!!
RESEARVE GRAND CHAMPION!!! AKA 2nd place
It was a great experiance cooking with Kick and Sweet T !! We had a wonderfull time and would do it again in a heart beat!!! Not knowing each other's style, we actually worked great as a team and got the job done!!
We might have gotten Grand Champ if it wasn't for the almost perfect score on Brisket by the First place Grand Champ Team --PETA 179.998:-o
Things I have learned from this contest!!!
Kick -AKA The Diddler ( Batman's Arch nemisis) feels like he needs to stay up and watch the thermometer all night and add three lumps of charcoal everytime the temps drop 2 degrees. I told him " go to bed!! AND QUIT DIDDLING with the fire!! He got 1 hour of sleep !!
Sweet T--- Fred Bird and Spicebag tell T that it is a team Q tradition and a good luck practice to have a Naked dance of the wood nimph prior to bed time!! She didn't buy it!
Then we told her ( as we are holding a very large spatula ) that later we are going to play " Good Cook--- Bad Cook " We got a rain check on that one!!
This was an absolutely NO ALCOHOL event!!! But we had some real great coffee8)
All in all we had a great time and I am sold on teams coming together and shareing their skills!
Funny Thing Happend!!! Mark Hyman ( Grand Champ A R Inv. this year stopped by to chat with us . His son asked Kick, who had just turned in his pork if he could have a sample ( Mark's son is about 8 ? ) Kick gave him some pulled pork and as he was eating it , Kick asked " how do you like the Pork? " His reply was " It's better than my Dad's!!":biggrin:
WE ALL WALKED !!!
NUFF SAID !!!
