Last weekend I competed in the Smoke in the Mitten comp in Westland at the VFW BOVA. This is a great venue and top notch event. I came in with great confidence but left with no calls and places in the bottom half of the 34 team field. Took me some days to get out of my feelings and truly evaluate my cook. The cook itself went smooth. Exactly to my timeline and that was the problem. Meat doesn't care about my timeline. The meat gave me cues that I ignored and it cost me. Note to self "Trust your tools. Trust your eyes. Adjust as needed." That's all. Not done. Next comp won't be until the end of June in Ohio. We'll regroup and refocus for that. Smoke On!

1st KCBS 4 meat comp of the year. 2026 Spring Fling. Despite the rain, we were able to push through the elements and get our meats turned in. Thought we had a good cook but the judges disagreed. Humbling to say the least but we will not be deterred. Next comp coming up May 1st in Westland.
