This incident took place at a contest last year and I'd like to get the members read on whether this is legal or illegal? I won't name the actual contest. It lost its sanctioning yesterday and the discussion of this has led to a firestorm debate on another forum. Here is the scenario: You...

We're heading out tomorrow to Jasper, Indiana for a 1st year KCBS BBQ contest called Strassenfest being held in conjunction with a large German festival. Lots of Beer, food, and Fraulein's. What's not to like? So far 32 teams have signed up. This contest has a governor's proclamation and is...

Does anyone here watch Hell's Kitchen? This season is shaping up to be one of the best. Lots of volatile personalities on this one. One of the guys called Ramsey a B**ch last night and called him out. Security quickly surrounded the guy. Here's the video. <object width="425"...

Just came across this site that sells wood burning ovens for cooking pizza, bread, meat, you name it. What I found appealing about it is that it is mobile. I could see a Pizza competition circuit springing out of this. Greg, any interest in getting this guy on the radio. He's from Ohio...

I think I saw this one on the food channel once. Looked like a great time. Just curious if any of our California members know anything about this one or have any pictures to share. http://gilroygarlicfestival.com/ The flame up looks particularly interesting to me. To feed the massess the...

Used my free membership in Restaurant Depot today for the first time. Going to do a practice cook tomorrow. Chicken, Ribs, Brisket, and Ribs. I was very pleased with the briskets they had on hand. I got a 13 lb'er, passed on a 15 lb'er all choice whole packers. Also a very nice selection of...

Greg, Normally I don't link to other sites but there is an interesting discussion going on over at the BBQ brethren forum that even the KCBS reps have trouble with coming to a consenus. Taken to it furthest extreme just about every cook cooking pork at a comp could potentially be in violation...

Quite impressive and somewhat disgusting. A new world record! 68 hot dogs in 10 minutes. I don't know where these little guys put it. The mustard belt stays in the U.S. for the third straight year! <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie"...

Cooked two slabs of spares today on the Traeger. Family requested fall off the bone ribs so I complied. Have to admit they were very good. My favorite part though were the Onion Rings that I marinated in buttermilk for about 4 hours. Served with a side of dipping sauce (ketchup, creamy...

A little old. It's the year I made the trip to the emergency room but the whole crew is there. Diva's holding the BBQ Central Banner http://www.kcbs.us/photos.php?event=807&filter=Go Might have to wait a few pics for it to go through the slideshow but its there! Trust me! :lol:

Well with the economy stagnating here in the Midwest, I volunteered on Friday to start trying to drum up some business for our new office in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. It will be somewhat of an experiment for a while just to see if its economical to do. If it works out I'll be moving. I'm...

Thanks Hoss. Chris is a class guy. I'll definitely be taping the show! Glad to hear you liked the book. I pre-ordered it from Amazon some time ago.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there. For those of you lucky enough to still have your Moms, make sure that you do something special for her and don't forget to tell her that you love her! I hope all the Mom's have a great day and feel loved and appreciated!

in prize money. Payout to 40 places in each category and top 20 overall. Anyone going? Make your plans and start practicing, now! Hopefully they'll have better weather next year.

I'm surprised I haven't seen this posted already. April 24-25 Anyone on the forum going to this? Bruce, Puff? http://www.glbbqa.com/?p=8

I don't know whether this is the real deal or not. Mike's Jamie Geer Pit #2 up for sale on EBAY. Starting bid $20k. Seems a little steep for a 14 year old pit, your definitely paying for the celebrity status of the pit, I guess. New Jambo's by the way go for $7500. Buyers and bidders...

I was scanning through the KCBS website yesterday trying to decide which contests to enter this year and I noticed a reduction in contests fees at several contests. It used to be pretty much the norm that $5,000 in total prize money was usually the bare minimum yet yesterday I noticed several...

Just got an email with the list of teams that will be at next weeks Smoke On The Water Contest at the Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock. Lots of great teams there. 11 of the top twenty and 42 of the top 100 teams in the country will be competing. I know that Diva and I will be...

Recent episode of Man v. Food. Adam Richman takes on Sasquatch the 8lb Hamburger. Only 4 have ever succeeded at this challenge. Any takers! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1KSfc08 ... re=related

Broken down by category and overall. We were very happy with our position, an all time high for us. #51 out of 4,305 teams. Our category best was brisket at #36. http://www.kcbs.us/team-of-2008-overall.php

Temps are expected to get close to the mid-60's today and with the first comp only 2 1/2 months away, I decided to fire up the Geer pit today and cook a brisket, a pork butt, a couple of racks of spares and some chicken thighs. I most likely will be feeding the neighbors and friends this...

I'm experimenting a little today on the Fast Eddy. I'm cooking a very small rib roast for the three us, the bones are for the dogs. I inserted several garlic cloves and then rubbed with some Plowboys Bovine Bold (heard it was good on beef). Covered with brown sugar and set it in the smoke for...

I just downloaded Firefox 3.0 because I read on the BBQ Brethren site how you could make a few modifications to it and get it to run 3-30 times faster. So I downloaded it, made the mods and it does run blazing fast now. The only problem I've experienced is that I can't log into BBQ Central now...

This is way too cool. Contest is being held at the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock. Free Concerts Friday & Saturday nights. 38 Special on Friday Night. Rumor has it that Bill may attend on Saturday in time to sample the Q. Prize Money = $50,000 I signed up this week. Time to...

Congratulations on the review. Ulika's generally a pretty tough reviewer but he loved this sauce. Ulika puts together a great blog. Check out the Krispy Kreme Bacon Cheeseburgers while your at it. http://www.ulikafoodblog.com/ Maybe you should interview this guy Greg! He's got one of the...
