I hadn't really given much thought to the idea of competing, but I found out yesterday that there will be a Backyard competition held in little ol' E'town, in conjunction with the "BBQ, Blues and Bikes Festival" in May (https://bbqbluesfest.com/). It is getting to be a bigger deal each year, and now they are adding a competition to the mix. The required meats are ribs and chicken. A friend/neighbor has some limited competition experience and is really good with chicken, so... challenge accepted! We will team up and see how it goes, but the idea of being judged by folks who actually know what they're doing really appeals to me.
My buddy has already sent me a link to another backyard comp in August, so this might become a new variation on my hobby.
