Texas Trophy Hunters Association BBQ Cookoff
TTHA BBQ COOK OFF Results.
Headwaters for Heroes Cookers attended the 5th Annual Texas Trophy Hunters Assoc BBQ Cook Off this past week end at the National Shooting Complex in San Antonio.
What a time we had. Our purpose was to not only have fun but use this event as a means to net work and spread the word of what Headwaters for Heroes does for our combat veterans. It was a true success, the Texas Trophy Hunters Assoc could not have been a host. They were very accommodating to all our needs, especially Jennifer Beaman.
Our team had a great time and we ended up with a 14th out of 82 on our brisket, which is an accomplishment since there were some real hard core competitors there.
I have to admit I was very surprised considering I thought our brisket was to dry. It was incredibly tender and had a fantastic smoke ring. But I felt our other entries were better.
Aaron Kumomato cooked the wild game entry that was so good, we could not stop eating the samples. It was his recipe for the rub and sauce. He did one hell of a job with the presentation. But at the end of the day the judges seem to partial to dove and quail.
Our chicken was tasty, juicy, and a perfect color but no placing.
Our ribs were borderline fall off the bone tender and had a great taste but once again no placing.
The actual cooking team consisted of Aaron Kumomato, Danny Denson, Dustin Sweeney, and Steven Sweeney.
In attendance cheering us on, helping with set up and tear down were James Spivey, Matthew Wellman, Kenneth Thomas, Nicholas Laurel, David Carpenter, Peter Steidnick, Travis Worrell, Tricia Denson, Terry and Lisa Wolle.
Like I mentioned before our primary goal was to meet like mended people to net work with and spread the word of who we are. We did have a separate booth for Headwaters for Heroes, and I want to thank Tricia Denson, Lisa Wolle, and Terry Wolle for an awesome job of running that booth. They meet many people and already have generated the interest of those people. Know we need to cultivate the interest. Because of their efforts the ground work has been laid to start a long lasting relationship with the Texas Trophy Hunters Assoc.
It was a blast, and Headwaters for Heroes will be doing the cooking for our 3rd Annual Benefit coming up on April 25th.
