[desertdog]

Whewwwweeee!  That's some stiff competition.          Glad I am on the other side of the table for this one.



It would be interesting to see them broken down by State.

[Mike (AZBarbeque)]

WOW, that's a lot of teams and a lot of really good teams.

It's shaping up to be a great event.

I only count 9 AZ teams.

Good Luck everyone.

[VisionQuest220]

I don't see last year's Grand Champion, Twin Oaks Smokin' Crew, on the list and last year's RGC, Pig In, Pig Out, isn't on the list either.  The application said that the team limit is 65 so there's only room for 3 more teams.

Interesting...

[DivaHerself]

And to think that last year when we went, we were so green we didn't even know who Twin Oaks was!

Then again, last year nobody knew who Rhythm 'n QUE was either   

[Mrs. McFrankenboo]

Wait, who's Rhythm 'n Que again???  Are they the ones with that great 5x8 trailer? 

[VisionQuest220]

No, they're the lucky ones who get to use that great 5 x 8 trailer owned by their really hip, cool and super generous pals from McFrankeboo BBQ.

Can you say just at the finish line

[Scottie]

Any word on them not allowing meat from outside Rio Rancho?  That is just a ridiculous rule.  How are they going to have enough meat for 67 teams?  I can see some teams backing out because of this...

Scottie

[VisionQuest220]

I got a call today from the NM Dept. of Health and they also tried to tell me that I was "required by both the contest and the health dept. to buy my meat locally because they couldn't be sure that I had kept it at safe handling temperatures if I bought it in Phoenix". 

First of all, I've seen it written nowhere in the literature that the contest required that the meat be purchased locally, only that it needed to be purchased from a USDA approved location and that it be kept at safe food handling temperatures at all times.  If anyone has any information to the contrary, in writing, I'd love to see it.

Jay could tell you some stories about his conversation with the health dept. people last year.

[VisionQuest220]

And I still don't see Pig In, Pig Out on the list.

[jim]

Dang you drink 1 Coors and blood pressure goes up -- you are not the only ones that have recieved that call so I call Art ---- here's his answer

As per Art 3/19/2009 12:15PM --- Quote -- Meat can be purchased where: any meat outlet at any location. It must be wrapped and keep properly cooled and as per KCBS Rules not seasoned.
jim -- 

[Scottie]

I'm still waiting on that call...   

[jim]

just got off the phone and asked Art to get the guy's name title and a statement to the opposite of the rumor's floating around.
Scottie this is my 6th year at RR every year some rumor comes up and pisses all the cooks off -- yes weve had a run in with the propane natzi, did we cook -- yes. after they left we put the propane burner in the truck and they never asked about it again
hope to see you and your great team

[VisionQuest220]

We should all have this sign up at our sites and make sure the health dept. people see them and observe the instruction when they come by for their visit.
