Packing up today for a brisket and rib cook off competition. :cool: A buddy phoned me a while back and asked if i wanted to go into this cook off with him, didn't take long to decide. Start smoking tomorrow morning, looking forward to this as i don't get off the farm much. Oh did i mention that a few cool brew may be consumed. We are loading up his cargo trailer this morning with most of the equipment needed. Going to be hot but we will press on. :)

Recipes are freely shared, but then i will have to take you to the train station.o_O Cook off is being held at Palliser Park near the town of Riverhurst. The club hosting this event sold 300 tickets in 22 hours, i never even got a chance to get some tickets for a couple of friends to attend.

I worked on the Riverhurst ferry for 7 years, met a lot of nice people from all over Canada and beyond.

Third place in the Brisket, not sure where we placed in ribs. Not bad for never having competed in a cook off. All teams were just working guys no pro cookers. I survived the heat and the beer, barely. Had a great time with my buddy, took my dog Cooper along as well. The Kinsmen club of Central Butte did a great job hosting this event. I will go again if i can get a reliable smoker, only bad thing of the weekend was my brand new Pit Boss smoker, wouldn't get above 165, 1 week old and cooked 1 chicken, i was not impressed.

That was nice of you to take your dog. Our furry friend with black hair stays in the A/C with our Calgary heat these days.
