2009 Wrap Up Continued

Our 2nd event of 2009 was the Canadian BBQ Championships at Whistler. We don't have many pictures from Whistler but we do have some good memories! Not much cooking wise. We had some darn popular Chile on Saturday with a line up about a block long to eat it! That was probably the cooking hightlite. This comp involved a little more beer and heat than it possibly should have! We screwed up the chicken again, adding way too much salt. The rest of our turn in's were reasonable. This is our set up, one of the two pictures we actually took.

Daryl bought a used Ranch Kettle from the team next to us. Kind of funny when you see how little room we had in the SUV and realize we had to put it on the roof to get it home (Which was 6 hours away!). That and the ash catcher falling off while we were driving on the sea to sky highway and having to stop traffic to get it, miraculosly with no damage!

Anyways out of 39 teams we finished 27th. Led by a good showing in brisket of 10th, a reasonable showing in pork of 16th, a decent showing in ribs of 23rd and an absolutely horrid showing in chicken of 35th. We had to be happy with not last in chicken though, I can't imagine what the four teams we beat turned in!
