Competition weekend

[Richard Chrz]

Excited for my first bbq competition this Sunday. I’m going into it to have fun and learn, but of course I want to win. I asked to be in charge of pork ribs, and was grateful they quickly said yes. Regardless of results, pretty sure it will be a fun day.

[RonB]

Good luck and have fun!

[Richard Chrz]

Have fun is my only goal, well and winning on the ribs section of it. Lol, Thank you

[Soonerpop]

Have fun. I’ll bet you eat good Sunday!

[latenight71]

that sounds like a fun time. you say pork ribs but what ya got goin' more specifically? baby backs, St. Louis, Spares? no comp spice or method details, of course, just some skinny.

[Richard Chrz]

So, not sure on what ribs, never asked. I will show up with everything I would want if I need to break them down. I am bringing my own rub, sauces on the side.

[Richard Chrz]

I’m bringing my 26 kettle to smoke them, my team mates are in charge of the two chickens and they are housing a propane smoker. They are both chefs and one a butcher as well, and all sorts of too fancy for me things on the chicken. I will watch and learn though, fun is first, learn is second, any pluses after that are pluses.

[Richard Chrz]

They were Spares we cut down to St. Louis cut.

[Starsky]

Is this the Bring'n Home the Bacon competition backyard on Sunday in La Crosse? I judged the master series there today, just got home. I won't be judging Sunday, didn't want to stay overnight. I didn't see the Blue Angels, dangit. One jet was up when I left, fun to see what I could of it while driving. Back yard KCBS is usually chicken and ribs. I have never seen baby backs in a KCBS competition. It is legal, just have never seen them. Not sure if that backyard for Bring'n Home the Bacon is KCBS certified though. From what I see, it is filled up with all KCBS judges though. I did stop at Buffalo Gal, picked up Boar chops,
Bison short ribs, Bison brats, and Boar spare ribs.

[Mr. Bones]

Very Much a Fan of Bison meat..

We grow em, hereabouts, thankfully...

[Mark V]

Mr. Bones This place I stopped at, the bison were just over the fence from me. I refrained from trying to pet them, didn't want to find out what would happen if I got too friendly, or looked too hungry. Never have had bison. I have had boar and am a fan. They didn't have the wild boar at this farm, just the meat! 😁

[Mr. Bones]

I love critters better than I love hominids; this is WIDELY known... I can feed deer, squirrels, various birds out of my hand, on a lucky day...

Lemme tell this, fer true...I would never be such a fool...

Highly Advise not approachin no bison close, like

They are Notoriously Aggressive, best of days, ain't even talkin bout protectin offspring...Bulls weigh between 1000-2200 lbs.

Ya cain't outrun em, an sure as Hail cain't out turn em.

Save yerself a Whole Heap of Troubles...

[Mark V]

Richard Chrz I go to the La Crosse competition every year, great organizers running that one. Next year I will get a room and stay overnight, judge both days. If we can work out getting together that weekend that would be great!

[Richard Chrz]

Well, tired, hot, learned a bit, and took first place in chicken and ribs! 😜

[Elton's BBQ]
