Well its time for the North Augusta Hammin and Jammin cookoff again. We are doing butts and ribs and the sauce contest. I opted not to do the Chicken quarters for the public on Friday night. I would rather spend my time on the 6 butts and 3 racks of ribs and get em right. One of our team members is doing brined turkey chuncks to feed the team Friday night. Will get thinsg packed up Thursday night and leave early Friday morning to get our spot all set up , will be putting up the 20 x 10 ft canopy to stay under and the 10 x 10 ft canopy to put over the cookers in case of rain.

If anybody on the list is coming please stop by and say HI!!!!

Well we made it back from North Augusta, Hammin and Jammin. Team Squeel Appeal (Myself, Niki, Ken Phelps, Charlie Dickens) finished 4th in pulled pork , got a nice trohpy for it. But fininshed 23rd in ribs out of 50 teams , I have since figured out what happened there , and made necssary corrections. We have pics and will post em later after some much needed sleep.

you've really improved, what are you doing differently now?

Well we totaly changed our sauce and the rub we had . We are using my WSMs for the butts and the 55 gallon drum smoker for the ribs , chicken and other things we might be doing. I am carrying a gas grill to keep things heated like the pulled pork for public samples and doing dinner for he team and guest and stoppers by. I met a cooker who makes a double drum smoker thats not bad and as I have 2 steel drums ready he said he would make me one for 150.00 , all I need is a trailer to haul it all. But thats the next purchase up a enclosed trailer possibly a 12 or 15 ft that can be tricked out for sleeping in and attaching a frame for a more sturdy canopy to stay under.

As much as I would love a huge cooker for what we are doing I dont really need one, that back yard set up works for us.
