As always, had a great time cookin with the team. We should have better though. I missed on the chix this time and I know what the prob was. Over seasoned and the sauce wasnt there (improper mix). Oh well. Got the notes written down for this comp and will adjust accordingly.

Wanted to be in the top 10 overall, did better than that! What a way to end the season though with a 2nd and a 3rd overall. Want to give Capt Dan, Lee, and Rich a huge thx for the great times, cooks, and year!

Fantastic! You Cat's are on it!

[Richtee]

Thank you ALL for the cheers and support!

Here's the results... IMO, quite a shakeup- well, except for Extreme/Troy- that guy's a MACHINE! Quite a few teams I'm used to seeing up in the ranks were not there... and a team or two who are pretty new scored well! (Rich/iBq'in! Kudos, man!)

Well the cat's out of the bag already but I will still put this little clip on here. We stood at the back of the crowd at the awards ceremony and I was very confident in our pork and equally as confident in our brisket as they were almost kin. So I switched my el cheapo camera over to video mode just before they announced the first place pork category and really wish I would of held down the button a bit longer but it's still a great moment.

The area the event was held was real nice. Heres a shot of Silver Lake with sand dunes on the far shore, beyond the dunes is Lake Michigan.



After camp was set up and all the meat was trimmed and prepped it's party time. Capt. Dan and Rich throwing some washers. It's a great game Rich brought, when theres alot of people around (better than lawn darts) hehe.



In the wee hours of 9/11 Capt Dan and I were just BS'n, the big meats were cookin and it was windy for the most part until I tried to get a pic of ol glory waving proudly in the breeze, then everytime I went to take a pic the wind would stop briefly. Dan said; it's like trying to take a picture of a child. Capt Dan; at every event, proudly display's our American Flag mounted on the Lang.




When Capt. Dan went down for his hour of sleep, Rich brought along some of that venison backstap wrapped in bacon, he made a makeshift grill using what you see and they were cooked to perfection. Great job Rich....for a three in the morning snack.




When Dan took a nap in his chair, he shut off the lights/power at one end of camp and it was chilly. Our lava lamp kinda firmed up into this perverted looking mass which we got alot of laughs from.





The stars were out all night but as day broke it didn't look good. Clouds moved in and the rain started and kept up until our final turn in. Heres our modified chicken cooker. Were just happy it stopped long enough to break down and pack up.





A little blurry Chicken turn in box.






Ribs are ready to slice and place in the turn in box.




And placed in turn box..........it is pretty I think.





Dan on the way back from accepting our 5th place Ribs award.






What can you say about this pork? it was great. While sampling I said it tastes like a cloud of pork. But like I said that Brisket was equally good. But the judges spoke.



And last but not least the brisket turn in.




Had a great time with a great bunch of talented guy's.

That's the much touted "money muscle" at the side of the butt, 90° from the bone... Those hunks just melted in your mouth like a good chocolate bar :{)
