    My latest comp with the Lowland Smokers: Ruhrpott BBQ comp in Germany

    This last weekend my team and I competed in the biggest KCBS Sanctioned comp outside the US, the Ruhrpott BBQ comp in Germany. 58 teams from a lot of countries in Europe and even a few US based teams such as Wicked Que from Georgia, Buttrub.com and The BBQ Guru. We didn't do very well but had a great time nonetheless, we ended 48th overall. Anyway, here's a few pics of the event.

    Seasoning the Brisket (ps, that's me)

      Wow, that sure looked like a HIGH grade brisket. I ain't never touched some fat/muscle striations like that.

      I take it that was NOT you working on the ribs.

      Thanks for the pics, never been to a comp.

      I need a translation off that red van!!

        We're really lucky we have a meat sonsor that supplies us with Wagyu briskets and other great meats (the brisket is in the back on the right)

        No it was not me working on the ribs :-) we have one lady on our team and she's awesome!

        The red van in the back is just a rental from another team, it just says Bo-Rent car rentals

                Suprisingly good for the time of year. I live in the Netherlands but the comp was only a 1.5 hour drive. We have another comp this weekend. I'll make sure to let you know how we did.

                  Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


                  This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp?s dial from 175? to 350?F and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin?.

                  GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


                  GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

                  The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


                  The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

                  Finally, A Great Portable Pellet Smoker


                  Green Mountain?s portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it?s also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

                  Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

                  If you?re using oven mitts at the grill, it?s time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder?s gloves. They?re heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned.

                  The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


                  The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
