I have a problem.
Drove 5 hours to get there, stayed up all night
cooking, I smell like smoke, and I didn't win
anything. But that's not my problem, my problem
is I can't wait to do it again! |

First time on

Cooking and eating and then getting trophies and
money. What a sport! |

Might have lost my
focus, got a little cocky. Win a few trophies
and it went to my head, won't let that happen
again. |

Was very happy
with a 6th place finish. Didn't want to tank
after the win last time out. Wind was blowing
all night making it hard to cook. |

This was a small
contest, but still have to beat the same top
teams. We did OK, however, it was a long drive
and Vince and I were playing catch up all day. |

It was a long
night as the beeper for the brisket constantly
went off, but I didn't care just wanted to
sleep. We did OK with our two money categories -
pork and ribs. |

Another 6th
overall. Guess I should be happy. Still haven't
figured it all out. Maybe I never will, but I'll
have fun trying. Took our first shot at sauce
with a full cup! |

Our first "1st"
place in a category, that was good, but the 37th
in brisket killed our chances for the title. We
have to be more consistent. |

When I was at the
Royal - I just love saying that - we competed
against all the people we see on TV. What other
sport can you do that and where else can I walk
around and look skinny! |
