To add a little more fun to the upcoming Pellet Pooper VS Stickburner Smackdown, some people mentioned that we should possibly have a little "contest" with a cheap prize for the winner. If you think this is a bad idea let me know and I’ll drop it. That being said, this could be a way to add a little more fun and excitement to the Smackdown, not to mention a little bit of "bragging rights" for the winner…
Let me say though, this ain’t gonna be the "World’s International Championship Best BBQ On The Planet" contest with a million dollar prize….so let’s not take this too seriously please! 😂
I’ve been giving this a lot of thought and if you guys and gals wanna do this, I’ve come up with a pretty good way to pull this off without any hurt feelings. 🙄 First off, the only way we can pick a winner is based on the pictures and presentation. That’s it, that’s all! We can’t smell or taste it so we just have to go by creativity, presentation and how good it looks.
JUDGING: I would need 5-10 people who are NOT gonna be in the Smackdown to be a judge. If you wanna be a judge..DON’T ANNOUNCE IT HERE, PM ME! We want the JUDGES TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS here in The Pit! I’ll not be a judge myself, but in the event of a tie, we could do a quick runoff vote among the judges. We need to keep this simple, easy and fun most of all. I don’t want to do a 2nd or 3rd prize winner….just a Grand Prize winner. Again, just for simplicity.
I’ve already called a trophy store and sounds like I can get a nice trophy for $75 - $100. I’ll supply the trophy and mail it to the winner. The winner hopefully could post a pic of yourself with the trophy after receiving it. Even though I can’t be in the contest because I don’t have a stick burner or pellet grill….if I won, you guys would never hear the end of it!😂😂
Here’s how the judging might work….Each judge would pick his top 3 cooks and rate them from 1st to 3rd place, in his or her opinion. 1st place receives 3 points, 2nd place 2 points and third place 1 point. Person with the most points wins! If we do this, I think we should close the contest Tuesday night [after Labor Day] at 9 pm. Hopefully we could announce the winner a day or two later. I have more to share but I wanna wait to see what you guys think first. Remember, this is just for fun and doesn’t mean the winner is King or Queen of The Pit….
EDIT: I changed the rule in event of a tie…..see above.
