I think they should change the name to the Hotter 'n Hell Cook-off. It was really hot. I mean like 108. My results were disappointing overall. I did manage to get a
4th place in the jackpot beans which it my highest finish in that category. My brisket made it to the finals table but didn't place. My chicken fell apart and looked horible. No style points there. Not sure what happened with the ribs. I thought they were pretty good. So I missed my last chance to qualify for Meridian. Not sure that's a bad thing given the temperature will remain in the 100's. Better luck next year.
