Ready to Roll

Well, last weekend we held our last practice before our competition this weekend at the Roc City Ribfest.  We cooked a full spread to finalize recipes and to get timing down.  To deal with all of the food, we invited a bunch of friends of to graze throughout the day.  Here is the day in pictures...

Up at the butt crack of dawn...

Brisket and butt, all rubbed and ready for the smoker.  Yes, that is coffee...

Butt and brisket, safely tucked away at 5 am, smoke rolling.  It really freaks you out when you hear a pack of coyotes howling at the bottom of the hill...

Checking on the brisket...

Ribs, ready to roll...

Ribs ready for cutting...

We are a bit nervous, wondering how we will do this weekend.  But, all we can do is our best and have a lot of fun at the same time.

We'll have an update on the results next week.

Thanks for stopping by...
