Finally a chance to post this past weekend’s activities. It was wet out there.
We found ourselves, once again, in Lancaster County for the Steak Cookoff Association Keystone State Steak Cookoff, a great event run by Bryant Glick. Always a great event, even when it’s wet out and the steaks were stellar! Tim Manley always a great job and always great to see you.
Did I mention the wetness?
Onward.

Awards were wet, so we went inside 🤗

We were ecstatic with a 3rd place Steak ‘A’ call which led to a “Golden Ticket” and an invite to next year’s World Championship courtesy of Rick Manzi and his 2 - 1st places this weekend, with the gracious pass down and a little “Disruption” AnonymousQ Competition Cooking Team in our cook. We also love that flavor from our friends at Croix Valley!
Steak B and C missed the mark, I blame the rain, ok, maybe the bourbon, but we came back with a 5th Place in Ribs thanks to Dead Bird BBQ - DB180 Perfect Pork and Sweet rubs. We added a little peachy heat which, in hind sight may not have served us well in looking at taste scores. Fortunately, I know how to cook ribs when I don’t burn them to death! 😂😂😂

Congratulations to Bryan Davis on the 1st place perfect score, my buddy Todd Johnston with his Golden Ticken and great weekend, Gary Zimmerman keeps killing it and C’mon Man Edward H. Gent III for a killer weekend and Golden Tickets for Steak and Ancillary!
Great to see all the ECSM!

See some of you in my backyard next weekend! Hopefully drier weather! I did mention the wetness last weekend, right? 😂😆

Great weekend in Lancaster, PA for the Steak Cookoff Association event at Lancaster BBQ Supply. Tyler Madenford and Courtney kept the torch moving with their 1st event as the new proprietors.

We decided to add a little “Disruption” to our cook and it definitely made the judges notice with a 3rd place🥉in Steak “A”with a 53.5 taste.
Thank you Rick Manzi and congrats on great products and your new venture!

Steak “B”, we stuck with the OG and got a 13th with a steak I wasn’t happy with from the moment I picked it. The 49 in appearance didn’t help.

Always a great time hanging with Todd Johnston and Pam PJ.

You never know what you will see in Amish country!

Congrats to all that heard their number, especially my buddy Gary Zimmerman with the double 1sts! 🥇🥇
Most excellent!

Thank you as always Raz Braz and your army for dishing out the Raz Dogs! 🌭😋

Suzi Sutton showed up just in time to spread some good luck my way! 🍀

Keystone triple is up next in a couple weeks.

See ya’ll soon! 🤘🏼

Happy New Year!
What a past couple weeks!

Mrs. Doc Pearl, Haylee and I headed down to Tampa, Florida and Charleston, South Carolina for the Holidays to visit family and then hit the Steak Cookoff Association Grate Sauces & Rubs NEW YEAR’s BASH STEAK COOKOFF in Goldsboro, North Carolina.

Thank you Ralph LeGrand for hosting a wonderful event and to Debby & Don Harwell for your hard work making the event a success.
Was fun to see my old NC STATE friend Rodney Holland. You totally brought me luck!
This was a packed event with cooks from around the US battling for points in the final cook-off’s of 2023 and 1st cook-off’s of 2024.

Saturday, the Doc did it again for the 1st time in 2023 with a 1st Place Steak and a 254.0 score.
Sunday, the Doc was fortunate to hit again with a 7th Place Steak.
Monday, lightning hit again with a 3rd Place Steak tying us for the 3-day OVERALL STEAK CHAMPION Award with Raymond Patterson!

Go Wolfpack! 🤘🏼
