Anyone with a FE out in Utah?

If you are in Utah and reading Scottie's post, I can't see how you could go wrong to help him out. He has won the Jack Daniels Invitational on his FEC, as well as a whole bunch of other contests so you might pick up some pointers. He is a great guy, too!

You're making me blush Donna...

We'll see if we can make it work.

Thanks go out to Larry once again for taking care of me. I was able to fly in to Salt Lake City and cook in this awesome contest. Larry had me all set up for a comp. With all of his help, I was able to finish as the Reserve Grand Champion. We gave Johnny Trigg a run for it, but in the end he had me by a few points. We were able to get 4th chicken, 6th ribs, 2nd pork and 6th brisket.

I highly recommend this contest and will give it serious consideration again for next year! So what do you say Larry?

Donna, can you send Larry the pellets? If not for him, I wouldn't of been in that position!!!

Wish I new how to post pictures, cause I have a few nice shots of the mountains. Pretty nice up at 8500'...

Thanks again Larry!

Nothing like flying a ringer in for a contest!

Great job, Scottie. Did you find any differences in cooking at that altitude?

Everyone said it would take longer. I noticed nothing really different. I had to actually slow it down, as I gave it some extra time and I didn't want them sitting around cooked for too long... It took it longer to get up to temp and probably burned more fuel than what I am used to. But timewise, it was just the same.

Now that I know I can do it, I am going to try and be like Eddy and fly in to more contests. It sure does open up my areas of the country that I thought I could cook at!!! All I need is a FEC and I am set...

Ringer... You are a funny guy John...

Scottie

Here you go Scottie & John,


Sorry, you have put up with the little guy in the middle.

Scottie,

I knew the "ringer" comment would get a chuckle out of you.

I thinks it's great that you pulled it off. Just think what you could have done if you had started planning a week or two earlier.

Looking forward to seeing you in August.

Hopefully this is a better picture than the previous post.

Actually it was better before, Phred!

THAT's funny John.

That guy with the Cookshack apron sure is a handsome guy....

Hey Scottie, do you want any more pictures posted? I will make them smaller next time....

The handsome one is in the middle...

Phred

anything that can make me look smaller... I like!!!!

Now that we have you on the Cookshack site... We'll have you in a FEC in no time!!!

Congrats Scottie!

You ever make it out to Washington or Oregon I have one you can use.

I see why Eddy used to do this so often! You can definitley see new parts of the country and meet a whole new bunch of cooks. Which I enjoy doing. I've seen a whole bunch of the country and it's not even July yet...

so I might just be taking you up on that Dan! As my goal is to cook in as many states as possible.

Thanks Dan!

Scottie

Have you cooked in FL yet, Scottie? If not, come on down. We can work something out. Even though you look better in that apron than I do!

Felda last New Year's... But I am always looking to do one in Florida... Might have someone bring my RV down for the winter and I can do a few of them...

Thanks for the leftovers Scottie, the family and folks at work really enjoyed them.
