Well, not like we're old hands at comps now by any means, but I'd like to think we're better than this one, our first in Westmont, IL this past Memorial day.
Brisket looks dry, chicken's a mess, and the pork....well, it tasted better than it looked! Actually, we were happy the brisket did 18th of 35! And that pork box got 3 9's for appearance! :shock: Looks pretty dry to me, but for some reason I thought it looked good then We were honestly just happy to have made all the turn-in's on time with no DQ's! (Although there is no rib photo because we just got them turned in under the wire....no time for pics http://s300.photobucket.com/albums/n...ooks/Westmont/ |

I should have trimmed the brisket to the box before I cooked it too. |
Here's on for ya!
It's not mine. I don't know whos' it is, but I know it was a 1st place brisket and also the GC at a contest. I don't believe it was sactioned though. YIKES!!:eek::eek: http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z.../Brisket-1.jpg |

Jim, YOU WIN |
How do you win with meat cut with the grain? Were they in the contest by themselves?

I bet that didn't pass the old pull and tug test, it would have been more like chain and yank test!:lol: |

I got a box judging in Hammond last year that was cut with the grain like that. It was obviously overcooked and they couldn't cut it the correct way without it falling apart, so we judged it on it's merit and it wasn't the worst piece of brisket I judged that day:lol: |
That meat screams I need juice

Brisket BACON!

My brothers first chicken in a competition, to give him credit he was a one man drunk team!

Well, this is a great thread! I can honestly say, that some of these entries looked a helluva lot better than my first turn in... and that was only last year at Dover.
So much meat to burn, and so much to learn... |

This box looks like it's burnt. They were perfectly cooked, just ugly as sin. Tasted good too. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t...edribentry.jpg |
