SnowShoe 2011

AHHHH!!!!!!!!!the first contest of the season. The Snowshoe Grilling Challenge. Held right here in good old Abington Ma. one mile from my house, what could be better than that? What a great contest, not only because you get to see your BBQ friends after a long winter, but also because it is a great opportunity to help out the local community and donate to the Abington Food Pantry.
The weather for the day was partly cloudy with temps in the high 40's low 50's and slightly on breezy side, but all in all a good day for grilling (is there really a bad day for grilling, I didn't think so).

We had a very good day we finished 8th overall in a tough field of 24 teams, I felt that we turned in some really good food, and the judges thought so too.

The categories were:  Strip Steak                                     18th

                                 Pork Tenderloin                               9th

                                 Sausage Fattie                                  9th

                                 Chefs Choice (Shrimp Tacos)           7th

Congrats to all of the teams that got called and to Heritage Foods GC, and I Smell Smoke RGC.

Next contest for Smokin' Hoggz BBQ will be April 16-17, in Lexington Ma.

Got Charcoal!!

Looks like the BBQ Fairy left me a present!!!!!!

 

Smoker Cart

These smokers are pretty heavy, this one alone weighs about 275 lbs. I bought the cart at Lowes for $100. I think it's a pretty good investment that will save me a lot of back pain.

New Website

Hey All, Just wanted to let everyone now that we now have a website!! It is not completely finished yet, but it is up and running. Here is the link http://www.smokinhoggzbbq.com/. I will be working on it over the next couple of weeks to get it 100% functional. On the site you will find a tentative 2011 competition schedule, so come on over and check it out.

New Addition!!!!

I am happy to announce that Smokin Hoggz BBQ has added a new member to the team, a Backwoods Fatboy!!!!!!! I am so looking forward to start cooking on it. Hopefully this will make things run a little more smoothly during comps.
