2009 Boston Hills BBQ Fest - Boston, NY

[The Giggler]

The Boston Hills BBQ Fest Commitee has decided to offer all teams wrist bands for free admission and complimentary adult beverages in the Pavilion on Friday and Saturday Night. Local and Regional Bands will be featured on the Pavilion all weekend long.

On Saturday night, we will be closing the beer garden in the competition area to host a complimentary reception that will feature Brunner's SHEET Pizza, Samuel Adams and Blue Moon Craft Beers, as well as Mike's Hard Lemonade. If that's not an incentive to stick around and cook the Open Grilling Contest on Sunday, I guess I don't know what is.

I will be sending out the team email addresses to Andy (Ho De Do) and Rob (U2Canque) for the pot luck dinner on Friday Night.

Stay tuned sports fans!

 

[Uncle Bubba]

Mike, how about an updated team list. Looking forward to it.

I don't have access to the website for changes but will try to have the site updated as soon as possible.

I know a lot of you guys are traveling a good distance to be here for KCBS. We would love to get some more participation in the NEBS Open Grilling on Sunday. One of the reason's we're hosting the party on Saturday night is to encourage teams to stick around for Sunday's contest.

Also, with 40 KCBS, we're going to award trophies and cash prize money through 10th. With 40 teams, we'll have a minimum of $6000 in prize money on Saturday. The only expenses coming out of the entry fees are KCBS Sanctioning Fees, KCBS Rep Travel Expenses, and Trophies - All that remains will be paid back to the Cooks. If we get to 40 teams, I would like to make a donation to the Patchin Fire Company on the Cook's Behalf, for carrying the majority of the expenses to have the Event.

The late registration fees have been waived. Get those applications in!

[Uncle Bubba]

Finally have access to my computer. Can't even begin to thank Wittdog for his assistance this past weekend...Puck Q Rules!!! Thanks to Mrs. Witt too.

I was very undecided as to whether or not I was going to compete in the wake of my dad's passing but decided to. It was great to see everyone. I really screwed up my chicken bad...all my fault...stupid stupid mistake. Guess I'll have to do one more comp to redeem myself in chicken. I was really happy to get my first call in ribs...ever!! The pork was really good. I didn't find that out til yesterday when I ate leftovers...damn it was good. I changed 2 things on my pork and it must have worked. Nice to get another 1st in pork. All in all a very nice comp. Mike took care of everyone including getting me firewood...thanks Mike. Anyone who didn't do this comp should consider it next year...you'll like it!!!

 

[Bruce B]

Good job you guys and all the rest of the BBQ Central gang!

 

[Pigs On The Wing BBQ]

Congrats to all. Sounds like we missed a good time. We were going to take a ride in the "shagging wagon" to partake, but things had to be done at camp. UB's chicken tanked? He most of the time has it right on. Wittdog and crew are the best. Lot's of fun, but when the work has to be done, get the hell out the way. (kind of like Diva ) Sorry we missed a good one!

I was really glad you made the trip up. Good to clear your head with a little smoke. That Cherry Wood came from my farmette. That could have been the secret ingredient for the 1st place pork.

Thanks to Witt & Family for the pizza, and Diva for the ABTs (I think I ate like 10 of those..... Actually, everyone kept me well fed throughout the weekend, and I appreciate it!

Thanks to everyone who made this Event a success. Without your support, none of this is possible.

I did my best to make this the most cooker friendly event I could. Also, thanks to all the Teams who extended their appreciation for all the hospitality, and especially the hard work of the staff members. Our main objective was to make you all feel welcome.

The Patchin Fire Company was really happy with their fundraising efforts over the weekend. The daytime foot traffic was really high, and eveyrone attributes that to all the Teams. The BBQ Vendors were darn close to sold out, and we will be looking for some more teams to step up to vending next year.

There are some exciting things planned for next year. Here's a tentative schedule for Boston Hills BBQ Fest 2010:

June 24th - KCBS Judges School
June 25th - Check In and Pot Luck Dinner
June 26th - KCBS Turn Ins
June 27th - NEBS Wide Open Grilling

Again, THANK YOU to all the Teams. See you on the Comp Circuit!
