Congrats to everyone!

I am deeply disappointed that I was not able to make it to judge. I was selected, but my hot water heater busted Friday morning and wiped out my weekend. Sounds like it was a hell of an event.

 

[Stoke&Smoke]

Congrats to everyone who got to cook, and especially to those that heard their names called!

Was pretty sure when you walked with GC at Fremont back in early May it was going to be a great year for you Rich! Congrats!!

Congrats to everyone that made it to these finals. We ended up,with a 680+ total score, which in any other contest would be at the top of the pack. We're just happy to have made it to these finals, and got our name called amongst this group. Congrats to all!

Congratulations, Rich and Brad! It was a day both of you will remember for a long time, and I'm so glad we were there to see it.

For everyone else in the field, there were 700 other teams that tried their damndest to be in your spot, and that's something amazing.

It was a great weekend, with eerily perfect weather, and we can't wait to try for it again next year.

congrats to all that ATTENDED.. not just walked.. its a feat in itself just to get there..

Notice....49th place out of 50 got a 667.85. Holy crap.. tough field.. Think my career high is a 672. Congratulations to EVERYONE who made it there.

That 49th place is my 17 year old son from California. He turned in some of the best stuff I've seen him do...I guess the judges didn't like the flavor.
Congrats to all that made the journey.

Congrats to all that made the journey.

With a 667.85 it sounds like the judges DID like his entries, just not quite as much as the others. What did the Taste scores reflect? There were LOTS of great entries there! I've judged a lot, but can't remember scornig that many 9s at any other contest. Truly the best of the best!

Huge Congrats to Rich on that Monster GC and Gettin' Basted for an equally amazing RGC! It was great meeting a lot of cooks from all over the nation and just to be there was an accomplishment. You know that you are in a tough crowd when your 176.56 score chicken comes in 11th place....

See you this weekend at the Royal!

 

[DerrickG]

The overall score would have been GC'd in California...lol
Should have used that KC Masterpiece....ugh

Good luck Smitty and the rest of the Bretheren at the Royal.
