40 teams and the Low Calorie Wood Team which MD was a part were competing in the world class bar b Q cookoff sanction by the KC Bar B Q Association. Our sauce was rate poor. But we were told that sauce had to be hot and people like to feel it when they ish. However, we had a sweet sauce and they wanted to ish fire.
There were folks from TX, KA, OK, GA and other places. The Grand Champion won $15,000.
We had one other Black from Louisville, KY who did place.
On our dessert the judges fought over the last spoon. But we were rated #10 out of 41 entries. The judge that brought back the bowl said it was the best, but we lost.
On our chicken, the top score is 9, one of the judges gave us all 7s. That knocked us out.
On the ribs the same judge did us in. By this time we wanted to know what was his or her problem.
We let people sample our Bar B Que and they said we were the best, but we didn't win. I wish we could have saved all those samples and sold it to them. But we did have about 10 chickens left and some pork roast and we told them they could take a chicken and donate to the AAMU Bar B Q fund. So we end up getting our entry fee back. Next year we will sell and compete.
The Texas Ribs Ranger won the big prize $15,000 and somebody from KC won second prize.
We didn't win but we did not come up short.
If you want to have a great time attend one of these cookoffs or participate in one. This is a lot of fun.
We need more blacks to join the circuit. The next one is this weekend in Memphis. I understand this is the largest in the world.
We have to get our sauce right, and that is to make them feel it the next morning.
