This contest needs one more teem to become a qualifier. Only 24 teams right now. If you are on the fence...get off!! Come and get your feet wet!! Entry fee is only $150. There will be a lot of AZ cookers there. This is a great contest and venue and not that far to drive. Great chance to show the kids Hoover Dam, you drive right acrossed it. There are 2 casinos within 2 miles just in case you want to get away for awhile.

Jay, we are going to get our registration in today, so we will see you up there. Should be a fun time. Can't wait to see all the AZ teams together again. ;)
-
I am also now thinking of doing this comp.I will know this evening if I can work things out for it.Memorial weekend is tough though,carzy traffic,crazy drivers,lots of trouble on that stretch of highway on holidays >:( I may head out early Fri morning and see what I can do up there.This is KCBS correct ?
-
It is KCBS. I have gone the last two years and traffic was not a problem. We will leave Friday morning and come back on Sunday morning. Now Monday might be a big traffic day.
-
Last year going up I detoured and went through Laughlin. I left Avondale around 11:00 AM. I called the promoter from the road and she told me the traffic at the dam was backed up for 3 hours. Comming home on Sunday I crossed the dam and the only delay was for security at the dam. They looked at my rig and let me pass on through. It was a piece of cake. ;D
-
You headin up there Jim?
-
Wouldn't miss it. We are leaving about 9:00 AM on Friday. I hope the wind doesn't blow like last year. Looks like the AZ BBQ crowd will be well represented. This will be a fun time. I hope thier Margaritas are better this year. Last time they were way to sweet.
-
What type of food is typically done for the "Anything Butt" contest?
-
At the Autry it was a southwest theme. It ranged from QN4U's southwest beefribs which were beefribs with diced peppers sprinkled on top. They won. It was the best beefrib I ever shoved in my mouth....... to crab enchiladas, shrimp tacos, pork tenderloin medalions, on and on. No theme to this one as far as I know so pretty much whatever dish is your specialty other than the 4 BBQ meats. They do get pretty fancy with presentation.
-
Will we have any problem going over the dam with our box truck and smoker? Should we go around instead? Thoughts...
-
I know they have restrictions on certain types of rigs they will let across. I'm not sure what they are. Maybe AZDOT or NVDOT might be the way to find more info. We are going around tp avoid the traffic backup at the dam. It's only about 50-60 miles more to go through Laughlin.
-
The smoker's fine. Don'tknow about your truck.
-
Forgot to mention that this contest is an automatic qualifier for the Jack Daniels World Championship Invitational and the Kansas City Royal. This is the only contest in Nevada for 2007.
-
That's awesome.
BBQCZAR, you going to go?? It would be great to see you there. Our App is going out in the morning.
Supposedly it will also count toward the California TOY since there will be 10 CBBQA members there, so that is awesome as well.
-
I am in ! Mike,who did you e-mail about the event to register ? I will also look for the info.I am going to send out app tomorow.
-
See you guys there
-
Ok,I sent off an E-mail to the address on the site (info@bestdambarbecue.com) I just wanted to make sure they still had space and that it would be ok to send application and money in tomorow.I guess it's on ! ;D
-
They have plenty of room and you can go ahead and send your entry in.
-
Thanks Jay,I ma sending in tomorow.Where is this event actually held ? Like main street, or a park or where ?
-
Jay,can we stay until Sunday morning,or do we have to be out by Satreday night ?
-
Awesome guys, I can't wait to get up there and see everyone again. ;)
This is going to be a great time...
-
It is held right next to a park/town square. You will be on the street next to it. Such a great little town. Not sure about Saturday night, we always got a room that night.
-
Hey all, what type of lettuce or garnish do you typically buy. I have only been in 1 KCBS tournament, so I'm still trying to master the whole garnish thing.
Thanks!! ;)
-
Only veggies allowed are green leaf lettuce(not red tipped), flat leaf parsley, and cilantro.
Did you take notes at your QN4U class? ;D
-
Yes I did, but I like to hear it from multiple sources... ;D
Thanks Jay... ;)
-
Mike Buy more than you think you will need The lettuce wilts and looks funky
-
I sent out the app today ;D Should be a great time ! Mike,Thom is right ,buy twice as much garnish as you will need,it's cheap and you have to pick out the best.I now use 1 small cooler just for garnsih, so it is fresh and new looking.I am still not a big fan of the whole garnish thing,but hey, what the heck we will do it :)
-
I have a question for Thom,Jay,or anyone about the "anything but" entry.We can have our own platter or container for the entry right ?I mean the "anything but" does not have to be in the regular styrafoam turn-in trays right ? I have an entry I want to do,but it would not fit into the normal turn-in trays.
-
99 % of the time you provide your own platter, tray or whatever. The presentations can get a bit elaborate. It's fun for me to watch the creativity that I don't have.
I also see that desserts are included in anything but. Sometimes they are not allowed or they have their own category. This does mean that anything but can be cooked on anything..oven, microwave, propane, smoker, etc. as desserts are usually prepared in the ovens in the motorhomes.
-
Watch out, boys. The testosterone tandem from Stagecoach rides again!!!

Vince, you are going up with Tim again? That's awesome. You guys will have a blast...
