Sounds like it's going to be a great time and a nice day (weather wise).

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

Is the spigot bucket official if so is the BoH going to testing the temp of the meat ,as per holtsville,
Let's be sure that if we are going to be inspected that we know ALL therules before...even if it is late now....do we need certificates of approval from the Board of health to sell,tickets, the ribs
 
All of the teams are listed on the app for the BoH under our application so no additional paperwork is needed. as for the temp of the meat, I can't say if they will or will not be there because I don't know. The ribs are refrigerated so if you have a cooler we can provide ice to keep the ribs below 40 till u finish prep on them. As for final cooking temp and holding temp, I am sure everyone has a wide array of thermometers to monitor

If any one has done a nassau county comp please feel free to chime in

Thats a whole lotta trimming.......
 
some BOH input from experience.

BOH requires mechanical refrigeration for keeping meats cold. Not Ice.

Holding temps must be 145 or better.

Serving area must be covered.

A spigot bucket is official...

u can use any one of these
