Congrats Cappy. :LOL:

I was there, I saw it with my own two eyes. He deserved it, it was some great BBQ. Everyone had the usual expensive rigs and their high priced trailers. Jimmy wowed them all with his 22 WSM and a cheap pop up.

I've always admired Cappy for his humble attitude. A sincere congratulations from Charleston. I'm proud to see it.

I was gonna do a full case on the 22, but one team showed up late
and they didn't have any meat, so me and someone else gave them
some butts. I cooked 6. It fit fine, 4 will be a little bit of a squeeze, but
it will absolutely work.
 
here's some pics....

as usual, I try to set up with good friends at Speedway BBQ (Allan
got first place Friday night), Roadkill Grill, and Kilted Kilby...we get
along so well and help each other out. Mike's Catering was set up
next to us, and they are a real class act....great people, and I was
honored to get to know them a little better.




Jamie at Roadkill











The Friday night crew was me, Kelli and Crystal. A rules change this
year meant we could turn in bacon in the Anything Goes (except dessert)
Friday night...these girls just llllloooooovvvveee abt's, and wanted to turn them in. I didn't think they'd win, but those poor girls work their butts
off for me and they deserved to have some fun. So we turned in
ABT's with a mango dipping sauce....12th place. The crowd was scared
to eat them, and we ended up with about 100 left over. Those got
eaten by the teams during the night.






ok, butt pics next.
 
the Friday fun continued



these girls love to get their hands on butts.




now I was gonna cook breakfast for everyone on my new 3 burner
grill, but Kilby brought Allan this stainless steel thing he got out of
an old Japanese restaurant....we all wanted to play on that, so we
made breakfast there.





we pulled the butts....I didn't like the bark. Crystal meanwhile, loves
to chop things.



we pulled and sauced....I couldn't find as much bark as I wanted for
the box....



even though we had a lot to choose from



but we made a box


after turn in I tasted some of the "almost made it pieces" swimming
in sauce and got real worried...too much acid, too much vinegar or lemon
or something. It just didn't taste good ...I realized the box didn't have nearly as much sauce, but I pretty much thought that was it for this year.
I was very happy with tenderness, thought the meat alone had a very good taste, but I was afraid the sauce would do me in.


so we turned in, and cleaned up. bout time all the work was done, who
shows up??


Woody! perfect timing...we caught up and he had to move on to family
commitments. I was so shocked at the win I don't have pics, but I'll take one of the trophy and post it...Crystal has pics.
 
GOOD FOR YOU JIM! That's awesome!! I can't tell you how much I miss SOTB.........I would really like to come down next year and probably not compete, but hang out and help drink your beer! Congrats again on a job well done!
 
all you guys are always welcome to cook with me...I don't
remember Lantern ever showing up, but he may have and I
just don't remember. :oops:

Sure was good to see the Rev again. Maybe the economy will be
better next year and more folks can come.
 
We had alot of fun when we came down a few years ago.
It'd be nice to make the trip again.
Congrats again Jim!
