Brothers

I am officially introducing the cook team “Spicy Cracker Smokers”

Jay Curry from Team Q and Spicewine Smokers, from Missouri
&
Jimmy Brod from Smokin’ Cracker BBQ Team, from Florida

We are teaming up as the “Spicy Cracker Smokers” for The Battle of the Brethren.
We both look forward to hanging with all the Brethren at this contest. It will be great to put some faces with these names and enjoy some cold beverages with all you guys.
We are officially signed up and thanks to Phil and Sled for the help and hooking us up with some used equipment.

Jay and I would appreciate any help we can get as far as equipment goes.
If anyone can loan us some stuff please send me a PM we would appreciate any help you guys can give us. Jet Blue will not let us check an ez-up, smoker or a cambro!!! Imagine that!!! I think I can get my knives in my carry on bag


See u guys in October
We both fly-in to JFK on Thursday afternoon.
You guys from NY do have pre-contest partys right? we don't want to miss anything.

Cracker,

If the other eastern dealer were to join you we could modify the name to
the Spicey Cracker Polish Smokers!:biggrin::shock::tongue:

Hi,

I have some friends who are going to create a team and compete this year. They have NO experience with BBQ. They are professional cooks and know their way around food, but not true BBQ. Like everyone else out there, they believe that they have a 'killer' sauce recipe and probably don't know quite what they are getting themselves into.

Is there anyone that wouldn't mind lending them a hand and a bit of advice during the event?

Thanks!

Eric

Grim Reaper Smokers just mailed their application and check this morning! :grin:

 

[Rockaway BeachBQ]

Beach Bum Barbecue has a check in the mail. Passing up on Grilling, way to much work for a husband and wife team. I was exhausted after setting up and doing grilling last year and this is way more complex this year.

What is up with the friday night chili contest? I assume we can bring those prepared. I like to mix 2 cans of Stagg with 1 can of Hormel for my secret recipe.

And I would like a spot next to Heavy Metal Barbecue again. I am sure no else is going to make the same request.

I will be there with Phil, even got monday off so I can rest a bit! Scott

Wouldn't really be iron chef if you found out in advance, would it?:?:

It's nearly September and I have nothing better to do then practice. Already got all of my fatties deboned, gutted and frozen.

I'll have my new haircut for Willie's Bash on Saturday so quit your beetching.

As for Iron Chef, I just want to know if we're getting one item (say clams) or multiple items (say clams, marshmallows and gravy) and how long there is between when we get them and when the turn-ins are. The rest is easy.

Looks like I'll be competing for the first time @ Sayville. It should be me and my friend and possible our wives. We were going to go with fat belly bbq but I see there is a big belly bbq team so my wife came up with chubby hubby's bbq so that's what were going with. Now I've got to go out and start practicing, I can't wait until October.

Can anybody tell me what are the mandatory items that we need to bring? As far as sanitation I see we need 3 seperate tubs for washing, rinsing and sanitation as well as bleach/water. We've got latex gloves and fire extinguishers and 2 burner coleman stove for hot water. Anything else that I am missing that is a must have? Also is there usually a place to dump the dirty water?
