YUP! Thanks already have it set to record the entire season on the DVR! Gotta love the DVR's, can't wait to see what they are doing!

i can't wait it will be a good night cook up some popcorn and stoke up the fire.

 

[beer-b-q]

Just set the DVR...

 

[markmcrae]

I dont think it will be quite cold enough for a fire down here in Florida, but the popcorn sure sounds good.

 

[glgoodwin]

I have the DVR set

Good idea! How long do you smoke popcorn, and will apple wood work?

Funny...there was a Que Competition that I was going to get in on last summer, until my other 2 team members had a conflict on that date.

The gal who sent out all the emails to potential teams, is the wife of one of the larger team's captain. Since we ended up not entering that contest, I haven't heard from her in about 6 months. However, she emailed me to say that her husband was interviewed for the 3rd episode of this new show. Can't wait to see some major 'que in the works!

I would love it if somebody would post a review tomorrow or this weekend. I don't have TLC... I know, I'm living in the freakin' stone age, OK? But I'm really interested to hear about the show and I'll probably look for clips online. Thanks dudes.

Oh yeah...and GO GATORS!

[rodbuilder]

[garyt]

Lee Anne Whippen is on it, it'll be good.

 

[alx]

Her husband got pissed at her and sat up with my bro-in-law in his R.V. getting drunk at a comp this year in virginia...LMAO

 

[rio_grande]

Well how was it?
I fell asleep and it is not on rest of night..

I liked the show it was fun to watch but where is it written you have to be an arrogant ass to be great at BBQ? I understand confidence but there is a fine line between it and arrogance. Competition is awesome it keeps you alive and young but how about some sportsmanship? I'm probably being a little winy but anyways I enjoyed the show can't wait to see next weeks.

lots of characters in BBQ for sure, quite honestly I will watch again but it was just good not great, butchered reality to try and make good tv. A genuine jerk, a pompus half jerk, a couple good guys, a lady and a clueless bigmouth, hope they switch teams each show.

At least it was cool on the brisket call the number 5 team Iowa Smokey D's just opened another downtown location in the building next to mine, its by far my favorite local bbq joint.

Darren is AWSOME, glad he opened another place with his family, he make some of the best grub.

I guess they found the most idiotic guy they could.
My review: It's exactly what I anticipated, a 'reality' show. There are gonna be semi-staged setups and conflicts, and they are NOT gonna share their rub/mop recipes unless "you pay $700 at my cooking class". I'll likely tune out after a couple episodes.

The guy who kept getting 47th place with his food is a plant. Couldn't drive the rig, fell asleep at the pit.... it's too over-the-top to be real.
