MNO COMPETITION SMOKE TEAM

[holdemtwice]

 I was wondering if there  is any interest in this . I know bonehead  would like to do it. What we need is other people to help in prep  and  presentation . Oh and also we need  a  competion smoker  on wheels. We can make our own  but I for one  am not the greatest welder  or fabricator.  So  this  is what I am presenting  to all of our members  as well as those  that want to become a member .  Come  on  all lets get this thing  going.   Besides  it would be awsome exposure   for this great site !!!!!!!!  I will chat with the staff and see what we need to do .  This is just a fact finder   ,   so lets here from all you guys and gals that have an interest !




   thank  you  scott

NOT SURE SCOTT , I THINK WE CAN GET PLANSOFF THE INTERNET .  I WILL CHECK IT OUT . I THINK BONEHEAD  KNOWS OF A SITE AS WELL !!!

[Realtree]

Well as far as both really. The smoker is pretty simple, get plans and weld it up. What all is involved in the competitition and prep side of it i guess is more what i was asking Randy.

 FIRST THING WE NEED TO DO IS SECURE A SMOKER !!   THEN WE WILL WORK ON THE SPONSORS, THEN  THE RUBS  MARINADES  AND SAUCES !! THEN  THE MEAT , THEN THE COMP. THEN  THE ENTRY FEE ,  AND  BOOM  HOPEFULLY WE PLACE TOP THREE .   

[QuillGordon]

I was thinking before you compete, maybe a MNO picnic with the "team" cooking, trying it's recipes on the rest of us.. I know you would get honest opinions..  QG   :;

[Randy Kaar]

we could do that!  we would need practice since it
will be a new team. if i can swing my schedule and
it works for anyone else that wants to be part of the
team, maybe we can get to austin mn for the comp
just to see what its like.
