There were 60 teams including TheSlabs.com, I Smell Smoke, Dead End Smokers, and of course us. This being a hometown contest, I was excited to be close to home, having my friends come down and see me and chit chat. Even getting some help from my friend Kayce Long, who helped us wash dishes. So Friday started out like every bbq contest friday. We arrive at the bbq site which was great. It rained all week and when we got out there friday, it was dry, which made us happy. The contest reps were very helpful and always asking us if we needed anything. Thanks Jack, BOOTS, and Mark. The contest organizers did a really great job with the new revenue and getting everything as great as possible. The contest being at a new place worried me because I wondered if it would be clustered or not enough places for electricity but all in all, a great contest. All of the food was good. Everything got cooked, turned in and judged. Here is how everything faired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chicken&lt;br /&gt;1: Border War Smokers&lt;br /&gt;2: Gettin' Sauced&lt;br /&gt;3: Wild Blue&lt;br /&gt;4: Gen U Wine Swine&lt;br /&gt;5: Smokehouse #41&lt;br /&gt;6: The Pickled Pig&lt;br /&gt;7: I Smell Smoke&lt;br /&gt;8: Nickle Boy's BBQ&lt;br /&gt;9: Ornery Brothers BBQ&lt;br /&gt;10: Smoke Me Tender BBQ&lt;br /&gt;20: Slabs of Approval&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ribs&lt;br /&gt;1: The Pickled Pig&lt;br /&gt;2: TheSlabs.com&lt;br /&gt;3: Nickle Boy's BBQ&lt;br /&gt;4: Slabs of Approval&lt;br /&gt;5: Old Prospector&lt;br /&gt;6: Midnight Smokers&lt;br /&gt;7: Smokin' In The Boardroom&lt;br /&gt;8: Big "D" and the Briquett&lt;br /&gt;9: Four Men and a Pig&lt;br /&gt;10: FOP Lodge #50&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pork&lt;br /&gt;1:Gen U Wine Swine&lt;br /&gt;2: Wild Blue&lt;br /&gt;3: The Slabs.com&lt;br /&gt;4: QSS Smokin'&lt;br /&gt;5: Smokin 5ive BBQ&lt;br /&gt;6: Border War Smokers&lt;br /&gt;7: Blue Ribbon BBQ&lt;br /&gt;8: Smoke On The Water&lt;br /&gt;9: Slabs of Approval&lt;br /&gt;10: Good Fella's BBQ&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brisket&lt;br /&gt;1:The Pickled Pig&lt;br /&gt;2: This Is How We Que It&lt;br /&gt;3: Wild Blue&lt;br /&gt;4: Four Men and a Pig&lt;br /&gt;5: Second Hand Smokers&lt;br /&gt;6: I Smell Smoke&lt;br /&gt;7: Smoke On The Water&lt;br /&gt;8:Dead End Smokers&lt;br /&gt;9: Border War Smokers&lt;br /&gt;10: Pimped Pork&lt;br /&gt;11: Slabs of Approval&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Overall&lt;br /&gt;1: The Pickled Pig&lt;br /&gt;2: Wild Blue&lt;br /&gt;3: TheSlabs.com&lt;br /&gt;4: Slabs of Approval&lt;br /&gt;5: I Smell Smoke&lt;br /&gt;6: Four Men and a Pig&lt;br /&gt;7: Gettin' Sauced&lt;br /&gt;8: Nickle Boy's BBQ&lt;br /&gt;9: smokin' In The Boardroom&lt;br /&gt;10: Smoke On The Water&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our First Rib and Pork call.
