I'm really curious to see how some of you more experienced competitors feel about this. We cooked in the Smoking in the Golden Valley competition last weekend. This was our second sanctioned competition and although we finished about the same as in our first one, we felt we improved...

Well, we competed in our first KCBS sanctioned event last weekend, Jammin' in JC. First off, let me say what a wonderful job the event organizers did. Lance Custer the head organizer was fantastic. The event ran smoothly and all the volunteers were incredibly helpful. The event provided a...

Well, we accomplished the most important step for competition BBQ... We came up with our name. We are registered with KCBS as Condition 1 BBQ. Our first sanctioned competition is next weekend at Jammin' in JC in Junction City, Kansas. There are currently 32 teams registered as opposed to...

Competed in our first competition last weekend. Our goals were to get everything turned in on time, cook tasty Q, and not finish last. Out of 11 teams, we placed 3rd in chicken, 4th in brisket and sausage, and finished 3rd overall. Our worst placement was 6th in ribs but they were our 3rd...

My Dad gave me this recipe and it's fantastic. Take a one to two pound turkey breast and butterfly it. Remove the rind from 4 oz. of brie. You can pick it up pretty cheap at Sam's or Costco. Slice the brie in four slices and lay the slices on one half of the breast. Lay three to five fresh...

I got a WSM for Christmas and of course the weather has been terrible. I finally couldn't take it any longer and spent an hour chipping ice off my driveway on Sunday and did a slab of baby backs using the BRITU recipe. They came out great! I made the mistake of sharing them with friends and...
