I am entering my first competition. It is the South Sound BBQ Festival here in Washington State. I will be cooking Brisket, BabyBacks, Chicken thighs, Seafood and the open category (smoked meatloaf). I will be using my MES40 and propane Smoker Vault. I will be posting pictures throughout the event so keep an eye out for one stressed out smoker and the guy using it ;)
