Smokin on the Rio





mesquite firewood..



cattle roping..


electric cooler??  check out the spurs..


Beer can chicken..



Smokin Gun...


time to judge the ribs..


our table tested 14 different entries.  scoring was on aroma, visual, texture, taste and over all.. 


there was about 130 entries total for the ribs.  score was on a 1-10 scale with 10 being the highest.  I did not give out any 10's.  a few 8's and one 2.   Eric was a bit more generous with his scoring.

they also had Chicken, Beans, Fajitas and Brisket.  we did not judge any of those.  we did get to walk around and sample a lot of the food right off of the grill.  It was a very fun day, but the weather was cool and overcast.

there was music and a bit of dancing too!



It seems like every yard has a smoker.  maybe next year I will need to strap mine on the back of the trailer!  would love to be a team member at a cook off.
