I just wanted to stop in and thank Abel for inviting me to come assist in the Judges tent. It was an awesome and educational experience both both my wife and I. The KCBS reps and Judges were very informative and I got a feel for what Judges look for, what turn in boxes should look like, the process boxes go through after turn in, and best of all, sample some great Q'. It gave me an insight to what I may be doing wrong in my cooks, what I need to change and improve upon, a glimpse of the high ethics the Judges hold themselves to, and most of all the encouragement to get involved and get a team together. I will be taking a CBJ class as soon as I can, so be nice to me, I just may be your next critic LOL.
