Wish us luck at the contest this weekend in Durango, We will be using John's baste/mop for most of the meats, we will be on the road tomorrow about 8AM for the 4 hour ride, Cook for 2 days and return home on Sunday. I will try to take some mouth watering pictures of our turn in meats.

We are back from Durango.
Wish I could tell you that we won, but alass, we did not, However we did take 3rd in sauce (a mix of every thing we had), 8th in Pork, 11th in ribs, I won't even mention the disaster with the Brisket and Chicken, they need alot of work still. 24 teams from 10 states not a bad turn out, lots of REAL tough competition. John, the marinade works very well, the crew thought it was our best effort to date, still need more practice though. You would figure after 10 years we would be finished practicing, but no we just can't leave stuff well enough alone. I will post some pictures later today. Thanks to every one that wished us luck, we may be coming to a town near you some day to compete. The weather in Durango was PERFECT!!!!!.

D@mn it! I was going to drive up and forgot! D@mn, d@mn, d@mn!!!
When and where is the next one?

It looks like you know what you are doing Garlic. Great job! We just bought a cold smoker at a yard sale and love it. I have smoked ribs, tuna and salmon so far and it has all come out great. 6 hours with the fish and it was still really moist. It is easy to keep the temp at around 150 degrees for hours.

Congrats there Mr. Garlic....that chicken looks fine to me....

I must confess....I...er.... forgot to tell yer......there was one more ingredient...that is a must...In my haste to get the recipe to yer..I'z forgot to mention it.

It requires a small dose of beer...not any beer...a beer that is only available here in the Okanagan...I can get you some. But since its part of the family secret....only I can deliver it..in an unlabeled bottle......

Whens the next competition? You have the address to sent the airline ticket to.. (gotta be both ways BTW)....

But 3rd is pretty cool place to be...

I understand there is a Rocky Mountian BBQ Society contest in Silver City NM in August, We might go to that one. Currently we are only competing in 2 events, the one here in the Albuquerque area at the end of March and the 4th of July one in Durango. Catering has been pretty slow this year and the funding to seek out new events isn't there.
John: LOL, now you tell me!!, It was actually pretty dang good the way it was
Beer would definatly been better, I may have to try that his weekend. Will a Mexican dark beer work?? Modelo?? Tecate maybe?
We try real hard to do well but have not yet stumbled on to the 'secret formula' for placing high, it is a subjective, double blind judging that has only certian criteria, Appearance is 33%, Taste is 33% (If you do not like chicken every one gets a 4 no matter how good it is, or they may not like sauce on the meat or maybe they like alot of sauce, who really knows, that part sucks) Tenderness is 33%. The brisket was like shoe leather after 16 hours of cooking, it should have fallen apart by then, but man was it tasty. My chicken was on the dry side and should have had more glaze/baste on it. The Pork was of the Raspberry and Chipotle flavor but lacked some horse power, need more chipotle. The ribs were the best we have done. Thanks to every one who cheered us on!!!! We will keep practicing and who knows some day we may be in a town near you.
