I’ve never entered a cooking or bbq contest, but I get the feeling many of you do.

Who has won awards and what did you win for?

    I entered a wet T-shirt contest once after eating BBQ and I won!

    Local competition, I got 4th in Beef (brisket) out of 22, ruined my chicken, and didn't enter any Pork.  I did bring a canopy, but by the end of the day my feet, legs and back were toast; I don't think I've hurt that badly since.  
    But, it was on my Bucket List.   :)

    Oh man, that sounds sooo good.  I love pickled watermelon rind.  Tell me more.  What do you call it?  Do you pickle your own?

    I’m a little surprised at the wet t-shirt contests but I expected more people competed in bbq.

    Probably a euphemism for "fat guys eating bbq sweating in t-shirts" contest.
