THIRD ANNUAL SMOKIN ON THE WATER





What a wild and crazy barbeque ride. We had the most meat fantastical and fun hot experience at the “Third Annual Smokin On The Water” barbeque contest that was held at Konicti Vista” at Clearlake California. A Barbeque contest combined with a “Reggae” concert, an Elvis impersonator and the most best ever, Chicken fried steak, at the “Coffee Shop” was experienced. This deep fried piece of crusty, tasty swine covered the whole plate. It was smothered with pasty, extra thick salty gravy. This was a record heartburn experience that you may and will have to love to experience. Wait a minute this is about Barbeque. Let’s get back to the Barbeque contest.






Ninety five degrees topped the outside thermometer while we sashayed and cruised the contest cooking area. We said hello to all our friends and wished them good luck on their cooking tasks. This contest would take a lot of fortitude and water with these temperatures. We are barbeque judges and used our “Get of the Heat Card” and hid in the air conditioned gambling den and drinking parlor.. Ms. Goofy almost lost our house but I had a mission. We hit the hay early because we had judging duties in the morning.





Tasting some of the best barbeque from the West Coast is a privilege. We take our judging duties serious and did our very best. Wow!, Brisket, Chicken, Pork Shoulder and Pork Ribs tickled our taste buds. Does it get any better? We left our air conditioned judging area and waited a couple of hours for the results.





We saw some great cookers taking the ‘Walk’. The walk is when you go to the stage to accept your reward. It was an emotional award ceremony because; you want your favorites to win. The result were fair and honest because the ‘KCBS’ runs a tight show. The over all winner was“Here Piggy Piggy BBQ”. Congrats!!!!!.Congrats to everyone!

  1. Hot fun! One of these days, I really do plan to show up at one of your judging events, just to take in all the fun. But I hope the one I choose won't be quite that hot.

  2. Zoomie, The next one will be in Santa Rosa on Sept. 10. I have personal connections to the weatherman upstairs and will have the temperature perfect for you. This will be so much more than a bbq competition. Here is a great chance for you to attend.

  5. Looks like a fun contest. The chicken fried steak sounds awesome in a Zantac kind of way.
