Winchester High on the Hog Contest

Winchester High on the Hog was not kind to us again in 2008. This is one of the two contest we have never scored a top ten in any of the four categories and this year would be no different. For the most part, the weather was pretty good until around 9 p.m. on Friday night when the heavens poured down for about four hours. We had the Eddy's secured and they cooked great through the night.
Our friends from Pig Pak came over to our camp for an 11:00 shot of Gentleman Jack. They returned the favor at 2:30 for a shot of Maker's Mark. Anyway, we knew that we had pretty decent bbq but not enough to really be a contender this weekend and we were right again.
We finished in at 27th out of 52 teams this weekend. Our only real bright spot was our chicken and it finished at 14th. Our ribs came in at 33rd, our pork came in at23rd, and our brisket was 34th. Not our best effort, but so goes this love we call competition bbq. As always we just get back on that horse and try to ride again.
