Man, what a contest. Over a 500 mile trip to get here, heavy thunderstorms all through the night. Got to meet Mr. Grumpy my next door neighbor, Bill The Grill Guy, and Brian. All were great guys . I hope our paths cross again soon.
Don't know if I'll make the trip next year. 500 miles were a little hard on us old guys but we made it. Took us 12 hours of straight driving. Got here 1/2 hour before the cooks meeting. It was so cool to be in the presence of so much BBQ talent.
We were shocked to hear our name called twice. We got a 6th in Ribs and a 6th in Brisket. We finished 14th in Chicken and 13th in Pork and took 8th place overall. We're very happy with that finish and hope to see some more Barbecue Central folks at future comps.
