Any updates on head count? Also, is it legal to use another protein in the sauce for the oyster category?

Oyster is Open Garnish correct? Protein in the sauce would be legal.

I don't think so. Did you look at the revised rules?

 

[timzcardz]

revised rules

No comment.




Speaking of rules though . . .

USE WOOD! Wood fires only when cooking. Propane may be used to start fires only.

​

Does that mean no charcoal?​

Or is charcoal considered wood?

It says "Open standard garnish, herbs and veggies only". I emailed Ben and he thought meat, dairy and seafood would be accepted but those aren't "herbs and veggies only".

Did Sled find someone to compete with him? What about all those other teams from Grillin On The Bay? Would love to have a few more.

maybe I could stuff them with salmon<G> Seriously, after my two go arounds this spring I am not taking ANY chances with garnish at these grilling contests. Remember to look at NEBS rules also for this contest.

 

[MAsQue]

IIRC, last year meat and/or seafood in the stuffing or sauce was out. I seem to remember that we had a lot of variations on Oysters Rockefeller for that reason. I remember thinking I wanted to do Bienville, and not being able to. Unless I was just misinformed.

For my next contest, I'm doing salmon, stuffed with salmon, on a bed of salmon, with salmon sauce. To hell with trying anything different. :twisted:

 

[Westexbbq]

As a judge last year, I enjoyed the oyster variations immensely.

Wonder where spam might fit in?

Shhh. That's why I'm asking about the addition of another protein.

The rules are supposed to read "NEBS Open Garnish." Open and standard are two completely different things under NEBS grilling rules.

Ah, glad I asked. And the "herbs and veggies only" language is just a ruse?

Then is sounds like anything goes for oysters.

If I through a lounge chair in the trailer can you come hang out?

This event has been canceled this year.

Any reason? Lack of teams?
