I wasn't able to visit the contest this year so no pics from me but maybe someone else has some to post.

Congratulations on the award, guys! :clap2:

Nice work guys!! Congrats!

Nice job boys.....wish I could have stopped by to visit. :thumb:

Nice job, excellent showing.

A definite huge CONGRATS to you guys. Diana and I had a great time hanging with you again. I just don't unnerstand why you didn't place high in brisket too. The couple samples you let me try were excellent. You did a great job especially considering the rainy nasty weather during plating time.
It does a guys heart good to see the happiness on Geoff's and Dan's faces when their wins were announced.
A big thanks also to Zeeker for makin the long trek from Canada to meet and spend some time with us. It was a real pleasure to meetcha buddy.

After the several comps I've attended getting to meet and watch the guys in the Rubbed, Smoked & Sauced and Captain & Smoke teams I know I have to start looking harder to find a couple guys to make up a team of my own.

Fan-friggin-tastic guys:thumb: congrats!

actually zeeker posted it up here (http://www.smoked-meat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9796)

But congrats again anyway :-) :thumb:

Thanx CA, I missed that thread. I looked in the BBQ Cookoff catagory and didn't see anything and I knew someone had to take some pics. Sorry for the repeat.

Thanks everyone. I am so very proud of the whole team. It is also very nice of zeeker to make the drive to visit for just an hr or two. Always good to see MichChef and Diana, they are some great folks. I appreciate the fan club/booster's, and they all helped us figure out which ribs to send in.

The brisket was great, but I also boxed mediocre burnt ends, cuz my fire went out while slicing ribs. I wish I would of left the BE's out of the box.I'm sure we could have picked up the extra tenth of a point.:noidea:

Its how we learn, and it is what it is.:bounce:

We really are having allot of fun as a team, and that is still THE most important to me.

The great members of the GLBBQA put on a great"low boil" for dinner friday night. It was awesome, filling and fun.BBQ in Mich is growing nicely. We have gone from 2-3 mich comps to 6 now, with other cities trying to get a piece of it too!
