Scott

Who you cooking with? :eek:

[sfisch]

I figured with all of the fine training and advice I have obtained from his heinesses Bubba and Mike that I will forego this event on my own ( with Deb). The entry has been mailed, there is a new team officially now in the house.

The little bird is flying the coupe

[Bbq Bubba]

Then i suggest you get practicing.....

You can cook ribs at Mt. Morris. :eek:

[EatonHoggBBQ]

Is he cooking @ Mt. Morris?? :confused:

[sfisch]

I have been recruited to the Mt. Morris event by the infamous Rubbed,Smoked & Sauced BBQ team to lend my expertise and help them with their attempt in moving up the Team of the Year pole.

Scott

[BruceB]

Any talk of Bubba and moving up a pole probably belongs on a completely different forum.:D:D:D:D

[sfisch]

My eyes!, My Eyes!!

Scott

You got a big pot to boil them in?

[Richtee]

Hey what's the deadline?? anyone know?

[sfisch]

RIch,
none of the paperwork shows a deadline.

SCott

[Richtee]

RIch,
none of the paperwork shows a deadline.

SCott

I just talked to them...evidently you can show up with the fee Sat AM? She said the cook was Sat? Hmmm... don't seem they got it all together. I'm gonna call back

OK...got ANOTHER number to call..and the person is out till Monday:confused:

[sfisch]

Mike is out of town on family business, he has been working with the people organizing this event. Hopefully he may be able to help out when he gets back.

You could also call Kim Hicks at Beale Street BBQ & Smokehouse in Fenton.

Scott

[spydermike72]

Here is the app, I am pretty sure it is a Sunday event....

[sfisch]

Yeah, its Sunday, the app says set up and inspection times will be sent in your confirmation. I'd bet they take entries right up to the last minute.

Scott

[sfisch]

The little local newspaper said yesterday that there were 10 teams entered so far.


Scott

[sfisch]

The organizer said they are hoping for 10 teams, they are moving it from the grass by the river onto the parking lot of the community center. There is activities and a car show in the immediate area. Set up should be open at 7:30am.
Will know more Tuesday.

Scott

[Richtee]

I got a call from them...setup is 7:30. Hmm parking lot eh? Well, that works too...

See ya folks there!

[sfisch]

Guess Mike and Bubba will be vending the event.
I'm in, RichTee's in, Who else? and who all is just coming up to harass us?

Scott

[BruceB]

I'll be there harassing.:D

[Bbq Bubba]

I think things are changing.....

Farmers mkt. offered me a free spot if i come vend there Sunday. I guess they love the Q!

I'll be out Saturday for this cooking demo that NOBODY knows about and good luck to the rest of you all on Sunday!

That is right a cooking DEMO, not a class and there is no cost involved. We have not been advertising it hard, for the simple fact it is not our event. It is a day before the rib cook-off and it is really intended for the average backyarder, or less...

[sfisch]

Bruce,
you best bring your camera, you can be designated GLBBQA photographer for the newsletter!

You are so luck that I am such a nice guy.
At least you upgraded me to an "average backyarder"

Scott

[EatonHoggBBQ]

At least you upgraded me to an "average backyarder"

Scott

Maybe you got upgraded since you're cooking on a Backwoods Party now.

[feedmyneed]

Count me in..Just got back from signing up..

[sfisch]

Feedmyneed,

Scott

[feedmyneed]

In honor of my first competition, I will be bringing one black and one blue UDS..
and if that doesn't help, check your pm..

[Rich Parker]

[lcruzen]

Congrats to all who participated and who placed. I had planned to attend to see what a comp is about and meet some folks here but my nieighbor lost a hard wood tree(cherry)and gave me the wood if I'd get it out right away. Yesterday was a miserable day to running a chain saw but got 2 pickem up truck loads out of it. Oh well, maybe Silver Lake.

[Rich Parker]

2nd place on your first contest that is awesome.

Congrats to all who participated.

[sfisch]

It was a long hot day but alot of fun, (most of the time.)
Chuck, was nice to meet you and your family, congrat's on the 2nd place.
Mike and Bruce B showed up to lend a whole bunch of professional and moral support and with just one little, small, not to bad of a glitch at turn in time, the day was a
blast.
Thanks again to Deb for her time and effort that went all for not, (no fault of hers!) and Mike and Bruce for the help.
Have to go find a place to hang my ribbon!

Don't put it in your cambro box.:D:eek:

[EatonHoggBBQ]

Congratulations Chuck and Scott. Wish I had made the trip to witness this event. See you in Mt. Morris.

[MichChef]

A BIG congrats to both Scott and Chuck. It was nice to meet the both of you. I wish I'd got there earlier to had more time to talk.
I have some pics of both of you as well as the other teams around your smokers and also picking up your ribbons. I also remember hearing the winners names, but I too can't remember them. The team name was a combination of their 2 first names.

What's the competition in Mt. Morris and when is it?

[sfisch]

John,
Mt Morris is the 21-22. Its a state championship at the Genesee County fair.
Thanks for stopping by and introducing yourself, nice meeting you.
