Looks like IAB will be skipping the Sam's Club for 2012.  I have a son graduating from UoA on the day of Regionals.  Good luck everyone.

He will be at the graduation.  Just like I'll be at his sons graduation from ASU this year.  Our kids were in school from the 4th grade on, and they received their Eagle Scout awards together.

Registration begins for Tucson - KCBS Sam's Club 6pm (8 EST) on Wed Jan 18th. Who's in? I hope to see a bunch of AZ teams at this one. 30 teams, 10-G's, and a chance to advance...nice!

The rules say registration begins at 8 EST, I emailed KCBS whether that meant 8am or 8pm and they sent me a surly email saying 8pm and that I didn't read it right.  I'll probably call tomorrow to verify.

"3. To ensure fairness for all KCBS teams, a registration period will start Jan. 18 at 8:00 EST. All local contests will be open for registration during this time. Registration will remain open for each event until 30 competing spots are confirmed for each 25 local qualifiers and the wait list of 10 teams is full. Registration will then close for that event. "

I dunno...but we are still in. Hope it's pm.

To those who want in, make sure you are a KCBS member or it probably won't let you in, so get your membership ASAP! Who's in?

We're completely in the air about this one.  Bekke is due April 28th and the regional is the week after that so the regional would definitely be a no go since I enjoy living.  If we do the local I'll be on my own and showing up late.  Does anyone know who the organizer is for this event?

As I was told last year, there is no chance to show up late. "If your pit and head cook are not setup by 4pm Friday, You will be disqualified!"  :mad: I still chuckle when when remembering the promoter asking me which is more important, Your Job or this Contest? And you need to tell me riigght Now! That silly goose wouldn't even give me any time to decide.... ;)

Know what greens are legal to put in the box and make sure to visually check to make sure that your brisket and ribs are sliced completely through.  The latter isn't specific to KCBS, but it is a mistake that even seasoned teams have made.

Best of luck to you guys.

Thanks crash, I'll double check the rules and with the coordinator before we prep boxes.  I can't imagine why they wouldn't be sliced all the way through so we could be doing something less than ideal with our turn ins.

This should be a good event.  Sam's Club events, last year anyways, was a pretty serious event.  Everyone wants to move on to the regionals and it's much quieter than normal events.  I remember hanging out with Kris and Neil at 10pm and it was as if everyone was asleep.  It was weird but not as weird as how quiet it was at regionals.  Good luck everyone and travel safe on Friday.

Good luck to everyone competing.

Rain and wind, dont forget.  IT was a cook I did not enjoy and based on my scores, neither did the judges.   :D

Good luck to all.  I'm taking the family to the Giant's D-Back's games that weekend.  Never been to a game on Easter, but beats cooking for the in law's.

You guys think YOU had it bad.... Try vending out at Country Thunder during all of that  ??? The one upside was watching all those drunk 20 somethings slipping and sliding in all the mud and the girls still rocking their daisy dukes and halter tops.  :D 8)
Looks to be decent weather for both events this year, good luck to all.
