Here are some pics of the BBQ from Labor Day 2008. Food was delicious and as usual, plentiful. We had smoked brisket, ribs and turkey.

The Art of BBQ learning experience continues -
Another BBQology – doing whatever you want in the people’s choice competition that has to do with food. The more food the better the results.

BBQ Competition Check List
I saved a PDF version of this checklist and put a link on the left side of this page under helpful links for a BBQ rookie.
BBQ Competition Check List
This is our competition checklist, I have used it for the last few comps we did which were the Art of BBQ and Bixby BBQ & Blues festival. Feel free to customize this to your needs.
I need to organize this or you can for yourself. I have enough stuff to keep these items in storage boxes so that they are always packed and ready to go when I need them. You may want to customize for yourself and your particular needs. For instance if you take medications, you probably want to list those near the top of the list. I would categorize these so that you know where things are located. At my house since I keep everything in a similar spot, for example the welding gloves and plastic gloves are kept together in my storage box. Does that make sense?
For those that may just be starting out and reading this, you will take way too much stuff to your first competition. After that you will begin leaving the items you don't really need behind. Just remember you are essentially creating a mobile kitchen and cook area.

art of bbq
I will post the same timeline for the Art of BBQ competition as soon as I have time to type it. I have it scribbled on the back of a piece of paper. My hand writing looks like that of a Dr. It will take a few days to sort through the Art of BBQ notes and organize them into something understandable for someone other than myself.

| From Art of BBQ 2008 |
Take a look at the smoke ring on the brisket from the Art of BBQ this past weekend. Looks better than any I have ever done. The smoke ring and the brisket turned out better than I could ever imagine. This picture of the smoke ring is from our turn in box. This should be taught in BBQology!

ethics question
I do have to write about this b/c it makes me a bit upset.
some friends came out to see us, and asked if we were buying peoples choice taster kits for people? I said no why? They then proceeded to tell me that one team bought theirs for them. I dont think that is right and they should have been dq'd. I was too busy at the time to tell any contest reps but the more I think about it the more it really ticks me off, especially when you find out how well they did in the peoples choice comp.

The Art of BBQ
Well we just finished up the Art of BBQ in Tulsa, Ok. We had a great time. Our overall score was 7th out of 73 teams. The art of bbq was our 3rd competition. There was a great group of teams, many past winners as well as natioanlly known teams. I feel very fortunate to have placed 7th overall. I will post the Art of BBQ score sheets as soon as I have the PDF version.
Here is how the weekend started:
12:30 Arrive at the Art of BBQ located at 41st & Yale on the OU-Tulsa Lawn.
1:00 our RV arrives, we are shown to our spot which included a Mini Cooper right in the middle of our spot. Becuase of the rains on Wedneday and Thursday we were relocated to the asphalt instead of the lawn.
1:30 Art of BBQ staff is looking for the owner of the Mini Cooper
2:00 Art of BBQ staff is still looking for the owner of the Mini Cooper
2:30 Art of BBQ staff is still looking for the owner of the Mini Cooper
3:00 Art of BBQ staff is still looking for the owner of the Mini Cooper
3:30 a Dr. or Medical student finally mosies on over to the Mini Cooper, gets in, programs her GPS and finally after us helping her back the car out by stopping traffic, she leaves.
I have to say the Art of BBQ staff was great and very vigilant at trying to find the owner of the car. I guess some people think that big orange cones blocking parking spaces don't apply to them.
3:45 we begin backing the trailer in and setting up.
5:00 we are set up and ready to begin cook prep
5:05 decide it's so damn hot that we need a break and sit for a minute
5:20 we began some charcaol in the BBQ starter chimney for our grill - burgers were for dinner
6:00 dinner time - burgers
6:30 light the BBQ smoker - time to get serious
7:00 cooks meeting. My son attended with me and had horrid gas the entire time we were in there
7:30 back to BBQ site tend the fire - make sure team member have not been resting too much :)
8:00 start rubbing meat
9:00 brisket and butt on BBQ smoker
11:00 bed time
Keep fire going all night - wake up to the sound of the Maverik temperature alarm
5:00 am prep ribs
6:00 ribs on BBQ smoker
6:30 breakfast started
The rest is history.
After the awards ceremony Quincie decided to leave before the Champion and Grand Champion were named. Art of BBQ decided to name the top 10 in no particular order, Back Yard Pigs was called which was very unexpected. Quinicie decided to circle back and come join us. I think she was shocked. The top 10 started, after each was announced we just kept saying that means we are in the top 9, top 8, and then we heard our name, 7th place Back Yard Pigs! Very exciting to think we did that good in that field. I will post some pics in the next day or two.

New Pics of bday
There is a new photo link from the past week. It includes Caleb & A.R. bowling with the playgroup. The lake with Syd, Sha, & Sam playing bury KBob in the sand box while making a sea doo and finally Caleb's 4th birthday. He now has a baseball glove & ball, V-smile game console, more moon sand and finally, golf clubs! Look Tiger, you may be playing a US Open playoff round with K-BOB! Hopefully he won't pull a Tonya Harding and Nancy Karrigan your good knee.

The redirect is complete and now this site can be reached at bbqclassifieds.net.
Upcoming Menu for the weekend is chicken thighs, marinated and seasoned with my super secret recipe (really I just don't have it in front of me) and smoked with pecan wood . I also have a few Jimmy Dean Maple sausages to throw on for a few hours. I am sure I can find a few other items to smoke as well.

2006 Thanksgiving birds
Here are some turkeys I did on turkey day 2006. I found the old photos and thought I would share them. I foiled the legs and wings so they didn't burn. I used EVOO and then Yard Bird Rub on them.

Bixby BBQ & Blues May 10, 2008
We had a great time at our 2nd comp. last weekend. We placed 15th out of 77 teams, not too bad imo. Our brisket placed the highest of the 4 meats, 16th. Ribs were next at 23 and pork and chicken both placed 31. Considering the competitors that was present, I am more than pleased. I cannot wait until our next one. I am going to post several of the to dos and not to dos over the next few days, as well as a timeline so new BBQ teams can see what a the typical schedule is like for competition day. Here are some photos from the comp.

2nd Comp
After a year and a half of I am entering my 2nd competition. My first comp was only a few months after I purchased my smoker. We didn't really understand what we were doing. It was a great learning experience. Now I have some experience under my belt with the smoker. We also had it mounted on a trailer. I look forward to entering a few comps this year.
