Hopefully this isn't overkill on the topic of 'The Jack' cookoff in Lynchburg this past weekend, but I just got in the door a couple hours ago after taking 2 days to drive back to Canada following the event.
I know we're all already aware of the amazing folks at BGE HQ, but I can't let this occasion pass without expressing the gratitude and admiration that our Dizzy Pig Canada team has for the company as a whole and for Lou, Jim and Bobby in particular through their enthusiasm, support and above-the-call assistance this weekend. Knowing that we faced a huge trip down from Canada, Bobby brought almost all we needed, and more, to turn in our best possible product at this prestigious event (5th brisket, 10th pork, 23rd of 65 overall).
It's our hope that our enthusiasm for the BGE and our level of success this season, and this weekend, can even begin to match the level of support reflected back towards us from both the US staff and John and Brian (the Grills Guys) who distribute the Green Egg here in Canada..
Thanks Bobby, Jim, Lou, John, Brian and all at BGE for an amazing 2006 competition season!

    BBQfan1,
    Hey Man...you know you are very welcome and it was the least we could do. You guys do an awesome job of promoting the EGG not just in Canada but in many parts of the States.[p]On a personal note...it was my pleasure to have you use my stuff and I very much like the little jar of heaven you gave me as a present. :)

    Sandbagger,
    Hey Tom... There may a little light-hearted trash talk between us (very little), but really, Chris and I are more apt to share the little things we pick up or discover in the time cooking apart in hopes that they help out the other guy. Strange how it went this year in that I passed a chicken tip along to Chris and they were 6th with it (we were 14th) and Chris gave us a sauce recipe to help our ailing brisket and we took 5th in that category and they were in the teens. So really, the competition is with ourselves to do the best we can. The ideal would be for one of us to take Grand and the other Reserve; now if that was the scenario, the battle for top Pig might be a little more animated! LOL
