I agree! At least when I'm cooking at home, everyone thinks my food is great ! ! ! !
But I do think that tricks, tips, etc. that I've picked up in competition have impacted what I do at home. For instance, prior to last year, I never did any KCBS events. So, I always cooked baby backs, now that I've been exposed to cooking spares (the KCBS way) I'm planning on going that route at my annual July 4th Family Pig Out next week.
