BBQ Showdown Results

Grum's Kobe Flank Steak
Check McPork Butt
Corey's Rib
Wade's Korean Beef Flank Steak








The cook off was astounding. The competition was tough. Take a look at the food.

Winner: Grum - flank (kobe)
Second: Corey - rib
Third: Wade - Korea beef - flank
Last: Check - Pork Butt

Lesson learned, if you are competing do not host. My butt needed 12hrs and only got six at a higher than desired 275F.. :(

Corey's ribs were finally the holy grail he's been trying for.

Wade's beef was a huge surprise, the dark horse

Grum's presentation and professionalism gave us something to behold; and the Kobe flank was great.

Gimme Coffee Leftist Blend

What can i say, its the most Starbucks like blend I've ever tried. Its like *$ light roast. Very similar in behaviour, down to the thin red extration flows and the balanced, highly drinkable taste.

not as exotic as the others (or even starbucks) but a lighter roast version with mellow notes may be the most drinkable espresso i've ever had.

Adrian and Corey (two frends of mine) have tried every blend in this challenege, both agree Gimme Leftist blend has the best drinkability factor.
