CHASING THAT GRAND CHAMPION AT ANOTHER BBQ COMPETITION!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

500 likes on this video and I’ll do a whole competition with NO SAUCE!

[@teamturner3933]

I compete and have judged. Like you said competing is expensive. One of the only ways to recoup that money is by winning or placing in the top spots. Your viewers aren’t paying for your comps. Backyard bbq and comp bbq is just different. It’s not apples to apples like so many backyard cooks think. It might be better to try and explain the differences to people vs blowing up your comp.

[@_Garrison19]

Competition Barbecue is 1 bite BBQ, those who don't compete don't know or understand. You should just do what it is you do, forget those who complain at a keyboard.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I more so want to do it to prove that you HAVE to glaze. I don’t think I’d do well with no sauce but I’d be willing to do it to prove a point! Also, will make for a good video I feel ha

[@_Garrison19]

@@GulfCoastSmoke hopefully it won't be an expensive point to make. Keep at it, keep getting those calls!

Yes sir, I appreciate you!!

Wow. Your growth as a BBQ artist has grown by light years. Good for you!

Getting to cook with your Dad that’s a win automatically! Everything looked on point. The little things you do different makes a huge difference

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Thanks so much, brother! Being with Dad is the best thing for sure!

[@robertbernal3180]

Great cooks like always 👍🏽. Everything looks so delicious. I would love to be a taster and taste all of the food that you make. You are always a CHAMPION.

Hello, I'm new to the channel! I love your video and I can't wait to start barbecuing!!

[@zackkatz4774]

Amazing video this week, felt like I was right out there with y’all! Appreciate the passion that goes into these cooks as always.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Thanks so much my brotha! We will 100% plan a comp around your visit 👀 let’s make it happen!

[@jacobkennedy2422]

Awesome video, congrats. The techniques and nuggets dropped in this video are awesome. New cooks don’t sleep on this one.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Super glad you enjoyed it! I love that people are catching on to things I’m doing without me having to say them. I try showing a lot!

[@gordocue9295]

Good stuff. All vids have been very informative. Can’t wait for that “no sauce “ comp!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

That video won’t come! It was 500 likes before the next video! Didn’t happen!

Brand or model # for your injector please? I used to have one like it and loved how it set the limit of each push, have since lost it. Thank You for your great videos!

[@dustinscroggins3382]

So did you trim brisket before you got to comp.???

[@charleswalker2484]

With those chunks for the injection, if you whisk that powder into less water and make a slurry first it wont happen. Congrats on the ribs trophy.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I’ll try that next time!

[@andrewpope204]

I've been loving the competition bbq videos! We went from backyard bbq to KCBS this year and boy was it a jump. What's crazy to me is the judging, you get one bad table and your screwed. We made chicken thighs and one comp and got a perfect 180, the next week same exact process same exact results in the cook and the judges gave extremely low scores. Anyways love your content!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Yeah, it’s insane! To us the chicken and brisket was even better than the last comp and it killed us! The ribs have been pretty consistent for us so we just keep on keeping on!

[@mattreyes1026]

Fire 🔥 as always brotha! GO GET EM 👊🤙

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I appreciate you my man!

[@tylerp4390]

Where’d you get the wire mesh things you have the meat on? Those seem handy. Thanks for the videos! It’s cool that you share so many of your techniques. Ignore the haterz that don’t know comp style!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I get those at H‑E‑B here in TX! But I’ve heard Dollar General also has them. I’ll always do my best to show y’all most of what I’m doing. I love helping others learn!

[@johnm1029]

Nice turn in’s!!! That’s the crazy thing about comp bbq is if you don’t like your turn in’s you score well. If you do like em them then tend to score low lol. Also don’t listen to the other folks. Keep glazing the meats for comps!!!!

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

I more so want to do no sauce to prove a point! I highly highly doubt I do well with no glaze! But only if we get that 500 likes haha

[@WillieKlondike9482]

Young man you should be at the Memphis in May competition. Where the big boys play!

I’m hoping we can somehow get there next year!

Where do you get that wire that’s under your brisket?

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

At H‑E‑B or Dollar General!

[@johnjohnthebarber720]

I am curious about your method of cooking chicken. Why do you wrap your chicken before you put it on your drum? How does it get? Any smoke flavor? I saw your last video where you did the same thing and thought that maybe I missed something in the video until you did it again today. Disclaimer. I love your videos, and I have learned a lot from watching your videos.

[@GulfCoastSmoke]

Great question! So, my goal is to get tender bite chicken with a bite through skin. I’ve found that panning it helps with that process. BUT, my chicken has been failing me lately so I will likely switch it up this weekend!

[@jasonstevenson8569]

Hey Bud, how'd you find out what place you got in the catagories if you didn't get top 10?

i smoke the best bbq chicken. ribs. brisket without poking holes in them. i think the more holes you make the more the juices will run out. your brisket looked dried out.

Nah, it doesn’t dry them out. I’ve had multiple 1st Place hits since this video and won an event. Just wasn’t my day that day. Glad you smoke amazing food though! That’s what it’s all about.

You injected the brisket against the grain !! Bro !!! And what smoker are you using ?? First time catching your video

I do that on purpose! If I inject with it I feel like it is more likely to run down and out. I’m using a TMG Fridge 48! Super glad you found us 😊
