Good showing by the Canadian teams: Swine Fellows with a 13th in Chicken and 21st in Pork, as well as House of Q's 13th in Brisket and 5th in Desert.
Glad we were there for the awards to see their walk as well as Mr. Bobo's walk for 1st in brisket.
Congratulations to all the winners and to all...
A big congrats to Andy and Kim on a well deserved championship.
Also congrats to everyone that made the Top 10.
Brian, for next year, this should be limited to NY and Ontario Teams only

It is 7 miles from the competition.
To get the same...
We'll be there. Flight is booked. We arrive 3:05pm Thursday afternoon.
Looking forward to seeing you as well.
Working on car rental and hotel next.
Any recommendations on a half decent and inexpensive hotel near the comp site?
