    I was just messing around with different sizes and made a few extra, had then for a couple of years, just gathering dust. I have a smaller version. I have seen some people use for drumsticks also

    You sent me a popper rack ages ago, I still use it for poppers.  Works good, core it, stuff it, wrap it, and stick it, cook it, and eat it.

    So far a microwaved hotdog is in the lead!  Don't be afraid to post your cooks!  Btw, Tacos are international.

    The rules say the contest starts on the 16th.  That's a great looking dog, but is it legal?

    Dang, you are right!  I should have allowed submissions right away.  I will consult with the committee ...... committee says they will allow it, because poster is French Canadian.  They don't understand our USA date format.

    If @DoubleEgger repeats this, I wouldn't bother competing. Just sayin', not that I was planning to.

    Would you please clarify the term BBQ @Ozzie_Isaac? Does this mean any protein cooked on a smoker/grill in any manner? 

    I have some ideas I’m tossing around. 

    Been a hot minute since we had a throwdown. Good call.

    For anyone going for the "Most Unusual" honorable mention (if there is one), you're in luck!

    You'll probably need a grilling mat or very, very small skewers.

    Let me ask the committee ….. committee says anything that involves a flame or hot burning stuff to make heat counts.
