The Pit Fiends Make It to the Big Time

Riverside Blues and BBQ
Greenfield, MA
October 12-13, 2013

This is our first trip out to Greenfield, and once again the organizers are great!  The people involved in this sport and the nicest you'd ever want to meet.

I thought all our grilling entries were great.  The categories were wings, sausage, pizza and dessert.  The wings weren't over done and tasted yummy.  For the sausage, Chuck made patties and put them on scrambled egg "buns" with onion chutney.  The pizza was a margherita with fresh basil and tomatoes, and we made the bananas foster chimichangas. We came in middle of the pack on all of them.
I was very disappointed with my chicken legs.  I thought they were over-cooked and burnt in spots.  Cris's ribs were the best ribs I've ever tasted.  Their texture was perfect, and they looked pretty, too.  Just goes to show you that you can never tell what the judges will think.  Our ribs came in at the bottom.  Our pork got a shout out at 6th place, and our chicken came in 2nd place!  Our first KCBS award.  I still can't believe it.
