Jonathan does it again and runs a good contest. Nice thing is it only took us 45 minutes to get there. The weather was much better this year, though we did get a little rain that caused some major issues for some teams. The newly graded parking lot collected water in the most unpredictable places. We ended up high and dry, and had a pretty good day with our 3rd overall finish. Big congrats to our buddies Dan and Dan of 3Eyz on their first ever grand championship!! And again to our buddies on the BBQ Guru for their reserve,

What was grass a week ago is now a graded gravel parking lot....thanks to all the rain. John Bush, our favoite KCBS rep, inspects our meat.
Bob and Dana Sitnick joined us to cook with us to recieve their master judging status, Good people getting an earful from Tony! Mike and Barbara (Chix Swine and Bovine) have had a great year cooking on their Jambo pit!
SOme friends of ours, Mason Dixon Smokers. Dang look at that brisket. Looks like a first place chunk of beef! The judges agreed.
The Big Green Eggs all set up. Brett and Joel chill.
Chuck made a sweet potato hash using Dizzy Pig's ne Pineapple Head. Dang it was good. A little rain, a lot of pesky puddles.
But the organizers of this contest were there to help. A little gravel, and this team was back in business! Dana and Bob work on boxes with Brian.
Mike and Jack. Bob and Kenny are almost always neighbors.
The scene on Saturday. This looks like it could be 6th place chicken!
We liked the ribs, but the judges did not agree. The team and the soon-to-be master judges.
The Dizzy Pig team, and Jonathan (the organizer). Nice job bro. At the awards waiting to hopefully hear our name!
Jonathan calls the awards.
