KCBS Election and TOY Results

On Saturday night, the KCBS held their annual banquet at the Sheraton Sports Complex in Kansas City. While I did not attend the event, I can only imagine the sounds of Platinum Express strumming Mustang Sally as the crowd of cooks and other bbq enthusiasts sang along.

At this banquet, the KCBS Board of Directors Election results were announced as were the Team of the Year Results (T.O.Y) in each category as well as the overall team of the year. Congratulations to Tuffy Stone of Cool Smoke for being named KCBS T.O.Y.

In case you were wondering, Team Ulika finished with 9 points in the pork catagory. Sure it is noting to beat our chest about, but we did beat out some teams that competed in 3 to 4 times as many contest as we did. The reality is, if you don't compete in at least 15-20 contests, it is hard to really make a splash in the T.O.Y standings.

This year the KCBS has instituted a new T.O.Y Points System. It will be interesting to see how this system will affect the standings.
