Going to M-N-M has been on my bucket list for many years now.  Not to compete, just to wander around and drool.  Not going this year either, stuck in Iraq with no Q and no brew....OMG! I'm in hell!...oh well, at least the pay is good...I order my new smoker next week!

When I am done with this contracting stuff then I will make a concerted effort to go to M-N-M....I cant wait!

I love MIM, been going since i was 16.It's just a hour away for me.

 Hogg heaven .It's cool to look at over seas teams pits. The Sweden team always a great pit to visit and being off Beale street doesn't hurt either. The music fest the week before is even bigger.Just bring your good walking shoes cause it's huge.I've seen BB KING 3 times, buddy guy 2 times, seen Willey their 2 times, Bob Dylan.2 times.Hell i even seen nancy Sinatra do these boots are made for walking.To get the real experience go both weekends or  all may something going on hence the name.

Had a blast .................best MIM ever in my opinion ! ( no mud) I talked with many teams and judges as well seems like the concensus was that everybody liked the new venue . It will be very interesting to see what this next year brings as to where the contest will be held next year.   I got very lucky and got to judge on site in the rib category . Was a great experience .......i highly recommend going to one of the judging schools if you are able to . Oh yeah did i say NO MUD ........lol Pkerchef

I have a friend who competes in it every year.  He is a Memphis Pooper Scooper.  Same business I am in.  He has given me an open invite to be on his team.  I am just too damn busy running my business to get away for a weekend.  One year I will!
