Placed 3rd in my first BBQ contest!!!

Posts: 180
Took the Eggs to the Blues, Brews and BBQ event in downtown Charlotte this weekend. Placed 3rd out of 54 in the rib contest. Feeling pretty good because this was my first contest. I have only owned the egg for 6 months. Lots of people were coming over to the tent and asking questions about the egg. I was the only one there who had one. Going to tweak the sauce a bit and try to take first next year. GOD BLESS THE BIG GREEN EGG!!![p][p]

ShortRib,
Way to go man, and on your first competition.[p]Now share your recipe and technique, or maybe a part of it as not to give away any secrets. LOL

ShortRib,
That is impressive for your first contest.[p]CWM

Painter,[p]Well, let me clarify. This was the "Backyard Grillers" side of the contest. There was a MIM sanctioned professional contest going on as well. I used the 3-1-1 method. The sauce was a bit of an experiment. I will type out the ingrediants one of these days, but I don't have it in front of me now.

ShortRib,[p]So you've only had the egg for 6 months, and you already have two? (according to the picture). [p]My wife is softening to the idea of getting another one. She wants me to wait until Egg-fest here in atlanta before I do anything. I think she may be thinking of buying me a medium or something. (or hoping I win one so I will shut up)...[p]congrats on your third. that's awesome.
-
Mark Backer,[p]Actually, I own one. The other is my friends. I would love to own two, but if I did, I think the second would be a small so that I could cook for two without firing up the big one.

My wife and daughters gave me my first Egg. About a year later we bought two more. We went to Dr.BBq's school and about two months later bought two more. So if it will help fuel the fire you can tell her that they are some EGGHEADS that have been cooking less than a year and a half and have five Eggs. One on the back deck and four in the cook trailer. [p]Good Food,Good Friends,Good Fun,Good EGGIN !!

Congrates on the win, you may now be afflicted with a virus that causes you to spend your weekends in smoke. It's work but it's fun.
Good EGGIN in the Future,

ShortRib,
Never the less you did a great job.
Who knows it might have done well against the big boys, but I think you have to anti up a little more to find out.
You got a taste of the competition thing, now you probably will have to give it another shot.
No matter where you place it has to be a good time.
Worse case senario is you end up making new friends.
