Roll Call. Inside 30 days. Ohio Smoked Meat & BBQ Festival, Nelsonville, OH 10/16 & 17

Shigs-In-Pit is in the House!!

2008 defending Grand Champion Shigs-In-Pit is signed up and now we have 28. Keep it rolling!!!
 
My wife, who is from Deleware, and I are considering a road trip to visit her family in and about Columbus. Question:

Since we only compete in the TX & OK area I am unsure of the what the taste buds in the upper midwest are after. Any insight would be of use if anyone would care to share.

We won't know for another week if we can get the logistics together for the trip.

Mack,
Even if you can't figure out the logistics come on down to Nelsonville and check us out. BBQ Brethren are always welcome. In regards to taste, what are you doing inthe Southwest?
 
To me, it is up about 1,000 miles. The tastes in OK are candy sweet ribs, Head Country BBQ sauce on the pork and chicken and a crap shoot on the brisket with a thin bbq sauce sometimes working along with burnt ends.

We have crossed that magic line and still rolling on. Dallas I'll get you put on the list your word is good enough for me. Check and see if little D can bring his girls from Kettering. LOL

Are we still considering the "Mine Tavern" on the public square the official brethren watering hole? I know the owner Tim Loved it last year.

So much work to do and so little time. Come on down to Nelsonville!!!

I finally got permission to attend, so have you got room for one more team??
 
Oh yeah, from what I hear they would be tickled pink to get 40, so, still pushing the contest to a lot of folks......look forward to seeing ya there...
 
Since I wont be able to come and compete. I am thinking about coming and Judging. Please mark the 4th bar stool from left for me ....Thanks







It's official Nelsonville is over 25 teams (no double lines this time)

Bear has been sent the updated list of teams so the website will probably be updated soon

Hey, new member here. Seriously considering this as my first pro comp... is there still room/time to get in the app?

Matt,

Come on over we still have space. You can get all the information you need at www.ohiobbq.com. I hope you cane make it. To the best of our knowledge the most teams Nelsonville has had in 13 years is 33. We would not mind at all if we beat that.
 
Matt, plenty of folks there to help you along the way, come on out, it is going to be a pretty decent one I do believe........

Also, a big thank you to everyone down that way putting in such hard work......hope they are prepared for the swine, bovine, and cluckin stampede of bbq teams down there this year.......grins, remind the Giant Eagle, Parsley, Parsley, and Parsley....wait, one of the sponsors is GFS.....any idea on their ability to provide parsley?
 
Rob,

I'll alert the Krogers of our coming. I have a good working relationship with them. I can check on GFS. Last year that offered to let teams pre order and it would delivered to Rocky's Boot Grill for pick up. I'll have to check this year. I know that they are supplying the butts for the people’s choice competition. I'll let you know.

We are working to be ready for all the teams. I just ordered in two commercial size generators for the competition area, and welcomed a new sponsor, Buckeye Power Supplys. Just like Santa we are making our list and checking it twice.
 
Great Lakes BBQ & Feed Co will be there. I'll be sending in my check tomorrow. Not sure if it will be just me or Carol and the dogs as well. If Carol comes we'll have the motorhome. I'll be there Thursday evening after 6:00 although I may get there a little earlier and park somewhere until I can setup.

Looking forward to seeing people and taking some Ohio cash back to Michigan.
 
Why, is Troy cooking this contest?
coffee out the nose mod.....come on down, another entry into the pot.....:twisted:......Ohio is not a "walk in" state any longer......looking forward to some Ohio teams stepping up to the plate this year....several have been close all summer, and about due...
 
Well, if you want to talk smack. Be prepared to be smacked...

ford knows I am joking. just like he was joking. We all know the Scotsmen will be taking a large suitcase!!! lol
