Well its not very often that I say that I was not ready for a cook-off well this one my friends I was not ready. Long shifts at work and late nights helped in my demise this past weekend. Also 50mph winds dont help. Thank God my wife came to play she placed 2nd dessert, 10th beans, final table in cooks choice, I managed to come up with a 8th brisket and final table in ribs and chicken..
