My Other Passion
« on: September 07, 2014, 11:21:06 AM »
While we all love hunting and call making and collecting, we all have other passions/obsessions. Mine happens to be BBQ. I love to BBQ. I have been wanting to compete for a while now. I finally took that step on Saturday, and entered my first BBQ competition. It was an amateur competition,  ribs only. There were 15 teams. While I hated everything about my ribs, other competitors really seemed to like them. I was really discouraged going to the awards ceremony. When they called my name for 3rd place, I was totally shocked. My wife hit me and said," that's you!"  Just thought I would share with you all.

Thanks guys. I was only 2.5 points out of first. This passion just kind of fits. I've never met a hunter that don't like to eat.  *lol*

  *lol* Jeff! I think the NWTF would get a little upset along with Opryland Hotel if I cooked in the booth. Although, I wouldn't charge near the price and it would be much better than what they serve inside the convention! !
