Ok, 1 week until til "Daddy and His Holy Smokers" makes their debut!

Plans are coming together and this weekend were dedicated to making the sauces for the weekend.

I got the WSM 22.5" for the weekend along with my Red Box.  I have the ribs sourced from a local company using local, fresh meat.

I have most of the equipment together and a general plan and timing.  Some final notes will finish it.  I pick up the charcoal for the weekend this week when I pay for the rental WSM.

Practice is done with the ribs. 

I plan to use a special Bourbon wing sauce for the people's choice wings (one I am still developing), a smoky chipotle Honey BBQ sauce for the thighs (one my brother made - and no, I cannot give that recipe out!- I still need to practice.  I think it is a little spicer than I would like, but it is a good mix.) and a bottled local sauce for the ribs while using the rub mixtures I picked up recently.

The $50 initial cost really cost a couple $100 because of the supplies and the ingredients/ practice - but it will be fun.

I have to laugh, they mentioned there is a beer competition... Winner takes home all the beer if you win the category chosen at "First Shot".  I guess my bourbon sauce will be a hit with all of the drinking....

Good luck!

Comps are fun, just don't take it to serious.   When I did my last comp everyone kept saying Why are you smiling and laughing??  I told them because I was having a ball watching others cook while mine was finished hrs before

I had ribs ready to go judging while others were running around trying to figure out what to do.   My butts were ready 3 hrs prior to judging and everyone else was trying hurry up and finish

Besides, I got to teach a bunch of folks about the SRG's infrared cooking system  :D :D :D :D 

OH, forgot to tell you i finished 4th overall ;)
