Thanks for that Linda. Just told my nephew Kenny, (3 kids Q grand championships in 3 years at New Holland) and he really should try this. Been thinking about competing at Lake Placid anyways, so maybe we'll bring everyone up for this one.

Wow, they allow adult supervisors for this age group?? They should be able to cook it by themselves. Any chance of this becoming an adult contest..with the "supervisors" telling them when to adjust temps and when to take the meat off? 16-21 year olds in the "world championships" should know that by now!

Cheers, and hope you and Jerry are well!

there will be no hands on from the adults and it will be carefully monitored. Teenagers are too young to travel alone so that is the reason for adult supervisors. If you read the rules on the website this is a very detailed event and will rely on the kids abilities.

Thanks Linda. Lookin closely at this contest this year. Heard lots of good things. Kenny might have a chance in the "junior" deal too..and if not, maybe a good humbling is in order! Thanks for the info. See you soon.
