Meeting Friends For Hours Of Fun (Laughing, Giggling, Dancing, Drinking)
Steve shows Merrialyce how he learned to operate his cell-phone
"P-s-s-s-s-t , he doesn't know what he is doing! so we got him one he could operate!"
Steve has mastered this one but he keeps loosing the crank!
Must have been a good one
"This is my full-giggle expression"
"I am smiling now but tomorrow it will be COLD in London"
Something about a brass monkey
Jan is smiling now but wait until she gets to the UK
Steve is still thinking about his cell phone and wondering where the crank is?
What's Our Hobby?
They are certified registered BBQ judges....
Did You Know? - If you love good BBQ and spend your time hunting local restaurants for that perfect rib, the perfect chicken or brisket, you've been looking in the wrong place. Rather than spending hard earned dollars on a hit or miss meal based on an online review, those in the know go to BBQ Judging class. At a BBQ competition you'll be treated to some of the best of the best – for free. But beware, after judging your first competition, you'll be humbled, a stark look in the mirror when sizing up your own abilities.
Both KCBS and PNWBA (the two major judging organizations) have four meats core to the competition – Chicken, Beef Brisket, Pork Butt, and Pork Ribs. In nearly all situations, these are two day events due to the time needed to cook, “Slow & Low”. Some competitions will have additional lite categories, normally happening on the first day of the competition.
These can be Tri-Tip (a popular category in PNWBA), Salmon, Sausage, desserts, or even kids categories such as best burger. Normally the sanctioned competitions happen overnight with judging on Sunday. As a competitor, winning sanctioned events can get you invited to the big dances in BBQ Competition – The American Royal, Jack Daniel’s Invitational, and Memphis in May for example.
