Placerville California was a sizzling 94 degrees yesterday. The weather was not the only hot stuff going on at the Placerville Fairgrounds. A KCBS four meat bbbq competition, chili cook-off and horse show was held simultaneously to create a festive warm day.Yours truly hunkered down in an air-conditioned room to bravely sample and score some of the best BBQ in the nation. It is a tough job and we are privileged to do it.We would like to share a couple of images with you.
Our friend Chuck Collondrez of "Bowling Over Pigs' was crowned the "Grand Champion" of this bbq competition. Congratulations Chuck! This was another grand weekend of friends, food and fun. We cannot wait til next weekend to do it all over again in Montague, California.

I've always wanted to explore Placerville. It has always been a pit stop on the way to other places. I'm not so sure about long sleeve shirts and leather vests in hot weather. Did you guys stay there or drive up each day? Good places to stay there?
Greg, By car, it was an hour and forty minutes on the way up and three hours on the way down.(traffic)
Placerville and the surrounding areas is definitely worth an excursion. The downtown has lots of shops and restaurants. Lots of beautiful areas to explore nearby. Good times.
Greg, Stay tuned because I will tell you about the best candy store ever.
Koby Kicks Ants.....would love the backstory on that one.
Chris, You know, I should of asked.
Chris, Simple explanation. They own a local 'Pest Control' company. I should of made up something a little more crazy.
I'm liking those big cast iron smokers. Bet you they have a ton of seasoning inside.
I love Donna's clothespins! Not sure what a clothespin has to do with meat, but So Cute.
