We had a fantastic time at the KCBS World invitational BBQ in Mayetta at the Prairie Band Casino & Resort. We always enjoyed competing at their venue. Rolled in and had a lot of fun at an impromptu sing-a-ling Dance party Thursday night at Damn Yankee Texas BBQ site Joel and Lacy really know their 90’s hippity hop songs. Friday we recovered and enjoyed the day getting ready for the first of three World championships to come in the next couple months.

Open Day 1 Beck and I had some success with a
7th place chicken
10th place Rib
23rd pork
51st Brisket
Overall 11th place out of 90 great teams. We were very happy and proud of our results

Invitational Day 2 flip the script. We were solidly in the 50% that makes the TOP 50% possible.

As disappointed, tired and exhausted as we were nothing beats the feeling of watching the people you care about do so well. Aaron and Christy of Man Meat BBQ put on a clinic, on one of the biggest stages in BBQ. Reserved Grand Champion Day 1 and then turned around and pulled out a Grand Championship Day 2 to become World Champions. The old retired coach in me says this is the lesson for all girls and boys. As tough as I know coming up short in day one was. Get Up, dust yourself off, get to work and do it again. These two work as hard as anyone ever has and they earned these honors. Huge Congratulations Truly fantastic! ❤️

Congratulations also to the Day 1 Grand Champion Curt of Smoked & Furious BBQ Team who put up a huge number with a 717 score breaking a 22 year long KCBS high score record. It has been great getting to know you and hang with you the past couple weeks. Epic cook. Great Job!

Congratulations also to Janky Leg BBQ on the Reserve Grand in Day 2. Always a joy getting to hang out with you all.

Finally congratulations to all that heard their names called.

We apologize for the delay in releasing todays Video/Audio podcast. Turns out we had some audio issues (user issue) when recording this episode but our GUY from Bobby Keys Media salvaged the recording from the video and we happily bring you our 6th episode today from Smoke on the Osage in Osceola, MO, July 21st, 2023. This is a great little contest held in an RV park on the Truman Lake Reservoir. We are here for a Double Masters Series contest and Double Backyard Contest.

Joel Fleetwood joins us as a special guest host. We met up with 1/2 of the Man Meat BBQ team and Mike from B3 BBQ. The Man Meat BBQ competes as a family and full packed season. They also are the creators of "The Real" Man Meat BBQ Line of rubs, sauces and injections. Mike from B3 BBQ does not get to cook a lot but when they do it's a family affair with his Sister (the real cook), Dad and Brother. The families that cook together win together and both these teams can make that statement. It was really great to met these folks and we had a good time chatting about their BBQ Life. Give a Listen, we hope you enjoy.
