Newbie going for it!!

Hashmaker

Just recently bought a LBGE and built my own table. I have done a few butts and briskets that have turned out well. My daughter has encouraged me to enter a BBQ contest. I have never done anything like this before. I am using my Egg for the competition. I have a good rub and decent home made sauce. Is there anyone out there that could give me some advice on competitive BBQ cooking? Tips or tricks that can save me time or money? The SCBA will be providing the butts for everyone. Can a LBGE cook more than 2?

Dive in! You'll never know until you try. Yes, the large can cook more than 2 butts.

The Cen-Tex Smoker

You can do 3 easily with the standard setup. You can do even more if you get an adjustable rig from Tom at Ceramic Grill Store or a swing rack from Franco at Ceramic Grill
Works. By all accounts, both stand up guys and both great add ons to your egg.

Good luck.  I've done four 9 - 10 pounders on a large all on the grate.
