I am in for this one. Hope it warms up!

kwas68 · Jan 23, 2014

I'm in too! Yeah, this winter sucks.

Stoke&Smoke · Jan 23, 2014

We paid a while ago. Sure hope it warms up just a tad, but once we're set up we should be good!

I'll do your dishes for you again if you let me warm up in the RV! :mrgreen:

Brew-B-Q · Jan 23, 2014

We're cooking this one. Have no illusions of it warming up. Might need to start my smoker Saturday night.

You do mean this Saturday, right?

I am hoping to judge again this year.

LOL! No trailer to this one...we'll be there in an EZ-Up like always. Look for the one with the canvas walls.

I won't take the trailer out of its storage parking spot until May most likely

Brew-B-Q · Jan 24, 2014

Yeah, good call Ron. If it's anything like today I'll forfeit my $100 and call it a day.

Ron_L · Jan 27, 2014

Just a quick heads-up... The deadline for early-bird entries is Friday, January 31!

Strategically placed just before the 15-day forecast becomes available :razz:

Kave Dweller · Jan 27, 2014

i've been trying to get this one to work and it just isn't going to happen.

If this pattern continues it's been warmer on the weekends.

Ron_L · Jan 30, 2014

Gratuitous bump

Early bird deadline is tomorrow!

I live in Des Plaines so I may stop by if that's okay just to say hi. I want to do a comp or two or three later this year. PS what are the "key" BBQ societies and groups I should think of. Illinois BBQ society.... Anything else ?

Feel free to stop by my EZ Up anytime before 1 or after 3... pretty busy in between those times getting meats ready to turn in. I might have the sides up, but I will hang my BBQ Brethren banner outside of my tent - it says Illinois This Butt's for 'Que on it - you can't miss the pig! You might want to stick around for awards, too. It is a lot of fun to watch people win trophies!

It is recommended by many people to become a KCBS certified judge. You'll take a class and get somewhat of an idea of the bbq that people are turning in at KCBS competitions, and that can help you get an idea of what to shoot for at competition.

Many thanks! If I can make it over I will try to stop by!

The judge's application is up as of this morning.

Ron_L · Feb 10, 2014

One more bump!

The weather guessers are calling for a warmer weekend!

There is still room for more teams and they need 4-5 CBJs. Info and applications are at...

Stoke&Smoke · Feb 10, 2014

supposed to be around 30, that's a heat wave compared to weather of late!. surprised they don't already have enough teams and judges! Hope it's a full house.
BTW rdstol, feel free to stop by and say hello to us if you're there also. I can't get to our banner right now as our trailer is surrounded by 5-6' walls of snow and ice, but we'll be the ones with the canvas EZ-up walls
