BBQ Sauce

We also found out that we are 47th in the "Top 100 BBQ Sauces in the World"! 

 

We just found out that we won 1st place at the USA BBQ Championship in Las Vegas this past weekend.  There were 39 teams that competed in the BBQ sauce category.  Thanks to our friends, Matt Brailey and Bram Britcher from 155 South Competition team who entered it for us to see where we stood.  Looks like we have a winner.  We should be ready to bottle it in just a few more weeks.  We'll keep you posted.

Halloween 2010

Had our second annual Halloween get-together.  Was so much fun and we just love handing out the "Parent Treats" to the parents along with the candy to all the kids.  Had a great turnout.  We served Moink Balls (meatballs wrapped in bacon, BBQ rub, then BBQ sauce added after completing the cook), and Jalapeno Poppers (jalapenos, halved and filled with cream cheese, cheddar cheese, then wrapped in bacon).  These were smoked for an hour and a half.  Then David tried a new beef recipe that turned out great.  The parents were very happy to receive their treats.  Hope to do this again next year.
