• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

I had a busy weekend and still trying to take it all in, Saturday afternoon I took the KCBS CBJ Class taught by Brother Brethren and President of the Western BBQ Association Jim Minion. It was a very good class and I plan to Judge at the Washington State Spring BBQ Championship on April 28-29 http://www.wbbqa.com/

Sunday I took the Pitmaster Cooking Class with Paul Kirk sponsored by the PNWBA http://www.pnwba.com/
I brought along my WSM and UDS and was paired up with Keith and his WSM. I had a great time and even though things were not clicking for me, Keith kept things focused. We took a Fourth Place in Brisket (cooked on the UDS) as the Sink Brothers. There were 18 Teams participating in the class. Here are a few pics.

After taking the Judging class and then having my cooks scored by learning judges gave me a better perspective of what the competitors go through and what I thought I knew about BBQ ain't chit! You guys don't have it easy, but it was fun!

I would absolutely love to take a pitmaster class! That looks awesome! I have no desire to be a judge, but I bet the judging class would be helpful too.

Thanks for the great story and awesome pics!
 
When learning something new is fun its definately a worthwhile expierence!

Paul Kirk is a hoot as well!

Glad you enjoyed the double classes.
