KCBS Sam's Club BBQ Competition, Asheville NC

I had a great time in my second major BBQ competition: The KCBS Sam's Club Competition in Asheville, NC. I placed in 6th place overall in the rib category and learned a lot about working with my new smokers and competition trailer! 

Boyd BBQ Competition

I recently competed in the Annual Boyd BBQ Competition in Hendersonville, NC.

Despite the rainy weekend, my first competition was a success! I placed 5th in both the chicken and rib category and seventh and eighth in pork and brisket respectively.

See pictures below from my test run beforehand and during the competition!

New Ole Hickory CTO smokers + Competition Cooking Trailer

I recently purchased two Ole Hickory CTO smokers and a new competition trailer! I customized the competition trailer to include: triple stainless sinks for prep-work, hand washing area, tank-less water heater, wood holding racks, lighting, and storage. The CTO smokers are upright trivection smokers that will hold 32 boston butts, 16 beef briskets, or 32 whole chickens.
