If the brisket is as good as the one at the gathering you will do great.
 
We had a great time,I had some issues with my brisket and ribs,and didn't place well.

But we did get 8th chicken, 5th in pork, and 10th overall.

Thanks to all my friends here at SMF, I could'nt put out some good Q without your help.

I love comps, not just for the competition but for hanging out with people that love to cook and talking Q.

I have learned allot from some great cooks just from being there neighbor in a contest.

It costs some $$$ to compete, but you learn an awful lot from hanging out with the pro's!
 
 
I hear ya, I left sam's club with a total of 400 bucks.

I have started doing my chicken in muffin pans and its turning out OMG good. no matter where I place in chicken I dont care cause I really like it myself.
 
This was the brisky turn in. It was so tough i couldn't get any burnt ends to put in the box. I smoked it for 16hrs and pulled it at 200º! What's a guy to do?

Oh Yeah, it was certified angus beef and one of the best lookin briskets ive seen in a while!
