120
00:04:23,467 --> 00:04:25,266
First place returning champ.
121
00:04:25,266 --> 00:04:28,467
If I had to describe
our barbecue in three words...
It's easy.
122
00:04:28,467 --> 00:04:30,000
It's Phil, Carmen, and Reid.
123
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:30,266
It's Phil, Carmen, and Reid.
124
00:04:30,266 --> 00:04:31,634
It's a family affairwhen it comes to us.
125
00:04:31,634 --> 00:04:34,967
[Michael] Reid's notthe only championon the LC BBQ team.
126
00:04:34,967 --> 00:04:37,266
We've got about
30 grand championships
127
00:04:37,266 --> 00:04:40,266
and about another 30reserve grand championships.
128
00:04:40,266 --> 00:04:42,100
He's not gonna admit it.
This is definitely
129
00:04:42,100 --> 00:04:43,634
the smartest person
at this whole event.
130
00:04:43,634 --> 00:04:45,000
[both laugh]
131
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000
And when it comes to winning,
I can say it just
doesn't get old.
132
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000
I think when it does,
we'll let Reid take over
and, uh,
133
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,266
-[laughs]
-we'll pass the torch.
134
00:04:53,266 --> 00:04:55,734
[Michael] I knowsomeone else hereat the American Royal
135
00:04:55,734 --> 00:04:57,533

136
00:04:57,533 --> 00:05:00,000
restaurateur and pit masterPhil Johnson.
137
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,700
restaurateur and pit masterPhil Johnson.
138
00:05:00,700 --> 00:05:02,066
[Phil J laughs]
What's up, man?
139
00:05:02,066 --> 00:05:03,367
My name is Phil the Grill.
140
00:05:03,367 --> 00:05:06,367
And I inherited the name
as the Jay-Z of barbecue.
141
00:05:06,367 --> 00:05:10,166
And the reason why is becauseI'm doing pretty doggone good
142
00:05:10,166 --> 00:05:11,634
in the barbecue circle.
143
00:05:11,634 --> 00:05:14,600
[Michael] Phil's gotseveral ribbons fromprevious American Royals,
144
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,000
including a prized onein beans.
145
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,867
I'm hoping my beans
still is placing somewhere
in there.
146
00:05:20,867 --> 00:05:22,266
Look it, look it.
147
00:05:22,266 --> 00:05:25,634
I wanna win beans,
so let's see what
I'm coming in with today.
148
00:05:25,634 --> 00:05:29,000
-Bringing New York style?
-Oh, you know I'm bringing
that New York flavor, baby.
149
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,000
[laughs]
150
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,100
[laughs]
151
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:31,700
Phil the Grill
is not from the South.
152
00:05:31,700 --> 00:05:34,166
The only part of the South
I'm from is the South Bronx.
153
00:05:34,166 --> 00:05:35,867
It's not known for barbecue.
154
00:05:35,867 --> 00:05:38,967
So, I had to make a footprint
for New York,
155
00:05:38,967 --> 00:05:41,700
and I came upwith my own flavor profiles.
156
00:05:41,700 --> 00:05:43,700
Do you just use drums
for competition?
157
00:05:43,700 --> 00:05:47,266
Yeah, because
it's the quickest way
to, like, travel.
158
00:05:47,266 --> 00:05:48,500
-Give me a trashcan.
-Yeah.
159
00:05:48,500 --> 00:05:50,500
-I'm gonna get
the same results.
-[both laugh]
160
00:05:50,500 --> 00:05:53,166
I'm not always
the most liked person
161
00:05:53,166 --> 00:05:55,166
in this barbecue community,
162
00:05:55,166 --> 00:05:57,500
because, see,I'll rent a trailer,
163
00:05:57,500 --> 00:06:00,000
I'll pull out some barrelsout the, uh, storage,
164
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:00,533
I'll pull out some barrelsout the, uh, storage,
165
00:06:00,533 --> 00:06:01,967
and I'll win an award.
166
00:06:01,967 --> 00:06:05,533
And then these guysgot these big rigsand all of these setups.
167
00:06:05,533 --> 00:06:09,000
And Phil the Grill
gets the call. [laughs]
168
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,900
Let's go see my boys at YSB.
169
00:06:11,967 --> 00:06:14,600
Phil the Grill
likes to fly into contests,
170
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,467
doesn't come fully prepared.
171
00:06:16,467 --> 00:06:18,500
[Phil J] Hey. Hey, yo.
172
00:06:18,500 --> 00:06:21,000
-[Kyle Matuszewski] No. No.
-[Justin Coffini] Never.
173
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,600
[Kyle] So he's constantlyin and outof our trailer saying,
174
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,600
"Hey, can I borrow
some saran wrap?
175
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,066
Can I borrow
some paper towels?
I need some knives."
176
00:06:28,066 --> 00:06:29,600
-I just need some pans.
-[Kyle] No!
177
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,000
You want us
to cook your chicken, too?
178
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,967
You want us
to cook your chicken, too?
179
00:06:31,967 --> 00:06:33,166
-[laughs]
-[Kyle] What else
do you need?
180
00:06:33,166 --> 00:06:35,467
[Michael]
Phil's helpful neighborsare Arizona-based
181
00:06:35,467 --> 00:06:36,967
up-and-comers YSB.
182
00:06:36,967 --> 00:06:39,467
And they're goingfull throttle this weekend.
183
00:06:39,467 --> 00:06:42,467
[Kyle] We are competingin chicken, ribs,pork, brisket,

00:06:46,367 --> 00:06:47,867
-What else we doing? Beans.
-Beans.
186
00:06:47,867 --> 00:06:49,266
[Justin] Yeah, we're competingin a lot.
187
00:06:49,266 --> 00:06:50,467
What's up, guys?
188
00:06:50,467 --> 00:06:54,066
I cleverly timed my visitright before dessert turn-in
189
00:06:54,066 --> 00:06:56,166
so I could taste their s'moresrocky road cheesecake.
190
00:06:56,166 --> 00:06:57,700
-[Michael] This is delicious.
-[Kyle] Thank you.
191
00:06:57,700 --> 00:07:00,000
-It's salty, it's sweet,
it's got great texture.
-Thank you.
192
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,600
-It's salty, it's sweet,
it's got great texture.
-Thank you.
193
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,166
[Kyle] The thing out here,
you gotta be different.
194
00:07:02,166 --> 00:07:05,166
Everybody's doing
the same stuff.
We gotta try to be different.
195
00:07:05,166 --> 00:07:07,467
Him and I, we like
to add more spice.
196
00:07:07,467 --> 00:07:11,266
These judges take one bite,so you have to hit 'emwith a flavor punch.
197
00:07:11,266 --> 00:07:14,700
Ever since we've started
adding the championship punch,
they've been loving it.
198
00:07:14,700 --> 00:07:16,500
-We bring Arizona
to Kansas City.
-Yes.
199
00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:18,734
-That's what we do.
-We bring the West Coast.
200
00:07:18,734 --> 00:07:21,600
[woman] Careful.
Like carrying
a newborn baby.
201
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,867
[Michael] As everyoneturns in their desserts,
202
00:07:23,867 --> 00:07:25,500
Day 1 comes to a close.
203
00:07:25,500 --> 00:07:27,600
And the teams get readyfor an early start.
204
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,000
[Phil Breeden] The only thingthat truly scares mewould be missing a turn-in.
205
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,634
[Phil Breeden] The only thingthat truly scares mewould be missing a turn-in.
206
00:07:31,634 --> 00:07:33,467
[Carmen Breeden] We've nevermissed a turn-in.
207
00:07:33,467 --> 00:07:35,166
I should never say that!
208
00:07:35,166 --> 00:07:36,734
[both laugh]
209
00:07:36,734 --> 00:07:38,634
-No.
-Oh, we still got
tomorrow to go.
210
00:07:43,166 --> 00:07:46,100
[Michael] The dayof the biggest contestin barbecue is finally here.
211
00:07:46,100 --> 00:07:48,500
And it all startsbefore the sun comes up.
212
00:07:48,500 --> 00:07:51,266
[Phil B] So in the morning,we'll wake up about 3:00.
213
00:07:51,266 --> 00:07:53,166
Once I light the smoker,you know, it's all business.
214
00:07:53,166 --> 00:07:55,467
[Michael] Before they've hadtheir first cup of coffee,
215
00:07:55,467 --> 00:07:58,467
our teams are puttingtheir big meatson the smokers.
216
00:07:58,467 --> 00:08:00,000
[Jason] Brisket and porkare gonna go on right now.
217
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:00,700
[Jason] Brisket and porkare gonna go on right now.
218
00:08:00,700 --> 00:08:03,500
Pork on the small...
or the big pit.
219
00:08:03,500 --> 00:08:05,867
-Pork on the... hell.
It's early.
-[laughs] It's early.
220
00:08:05,867 --> 00:08:07,800
[Jason] Pork on the big pit,brisket on the small pit.
221
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:11,166
[Michael] Competition barbecuealways involves
222
00:08:11,166 --> 00:08:12,700
juggling a lotof different meats
223
00:08:12,700 --> 00:08:14,166
and staying on the clock.
224
00:08:14,166 --> 00:08:16,000
But hereat the American Royal,
225
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,867
with the additionof two extra meats,
226
00:08:17,867 --> 00:08:20,634
you've really gottastay on topof your cooking times.
227
00:08:21,634 --> 00:08:23,867
[Jason] All right, we're gonna
go check on our turkey.
228
00:08:23,867 --> 00:08:26,266
[Michael]
The turkey smoke contestat the American Royal
229
00:08:26,266 --> 00:08:30,000
is a great chancefor pit masters to show offtheir creativity.
230
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,166
is a great chancefor pit masters to show offtheir creativity.
231
00:08:30,166 --> 00:08:32,367
The rules are thatthey must smoke their turkey,
232
00:08:32,367 --> 00:08:35,700
but then they can serve itany way they'd like.
233
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:38,500
We have a turkey pastrami
that we've already smoked off.
234
00:08:38,500 --> 00:08:40,166
[Jason] We kinda have
a blackened crust
235
00:08:40,166 --> 00:08:42,867
of coriander,
black pepper, garlic.
236
00:08:42,867 --> 00:08:46,266
We're gonna slice it upand then grill offReuben sandwiches
237
00:08:46,266 --> 00:08:47,533
for the turkey category.
238
00:08:47,533 --> 00:08:50,166
[Michael] Burnt Fingerbrine their turkeyin salt water
239
00:08:50,166 --> 00:08:52,700
for two and a half daysbefore it even wenton the smoker,
240
00:08:52,700 --> 00:08:54,867
which hydrated and seasonedthe turkey.
241
00:08:54,867 --> 00:08:56,367
[Megan] Ooh, that's juicy.
242
00:08:56,367 --> 00:08:59,166
[Michael] Other teamsuse injectionsto add moisture,
243
00:08:59,166 --> 00:09:00,000
which doesn't requireas much lead time,
244
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,367
which doesn't requireas much lead time,
245
00:09:01,367 --> 00:09:04,734
but risks leaving dry spotsif not injected carefully.
246
00:09:05,700 --> 00:09:08,266
-How you feeling today?
-I'm feeling great, man.
247
00:09:08,266 --> 00:09:11,266
The only thing that's
throwing me off a little bit
is turkey, right?
248
00:09:11,266 --> 00:09:13,467
That's not one
of the normal categories,
249
00:09:13,467 --> 00:09:14,867
and that's coming in first.
250
00:09:14,867 --> 00:09:16,266
-Are you doing just breast?
-Yeah.
251
00:09:16,266 --> 00:09:18,266
Brined it overnight,
smoke it up,
252
00:09:18,266 --> 00:09:20,533
and then, yeah,
I'm gonna make 'em
into turkey sandwiches.
253
00:09:20,533 --> 00:09:22,867
-[laughs]
-All right, so you got
99 problems,
254
00:09:22,867 --> 00:09:25,600
-but the turkey ain't one.
-Turkey ain't one! [laughs]
255
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,533
[Michael] A few trailers away,Phil's neighbors, YSB,
256
00:09:28,533 --> 00:09:30,000
are further alongwith their bird.
257
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:30,100
are further alongwith their bird.
258
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:33,467
Turkey went on
at 10:00 last night
for about 6 hours,
259
00:09:33,467 --> 00:09:34,600
so it's real tender right now.
260
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,000
[Michael] What are you guys
doing with the turkey?
261
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,967
[Jerry "Pops" Matuszewski]
We're gonna make
a turkey chimichanga
262
00:09:37,967 --> 00:09:40,000
with green chili
bacon rub in there.
263
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,266
They're getting fancy!
264
00:09:41,266 --> 00:09:43,634
I kinda love this
turkey category though,
265
00:09:43,634 --> 00:09:44,800
because everyone's
is gonna be so different.
266
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,533
-[Kyle]
Dude, it's wide open, baby.
-[Michael] Wide open.
267
00:09:46,533 --> 00:09:50,734
[Michael] But LC BBQbelieves that sometimes,simple is better.
268
00:09:50,734 --> 00:09:52,600
What are you doing
with turkey today?
269
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,600
I'll slice it
kinda similar to brisket,
so we'll just fan it out.
270
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,100
-Right.
-Wet it with sauce.
Nothing really crazy, here.
271
00:09:58,100 --> 00:09:59,734
-Not in a sandwich
or anything?
-Not anything, no,
272
00:09:59,734 --> 00:10:00,000
-no eggrolls, no sandwiches.
-[laughs]
273
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000
-no eggrolls, no sandwiches.
-[laughs]
274
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,000
-An eggroll
sounds delightful. [laughs]
-No, I mean, um...
275
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,166
Sometimes I think
you can kinda go overboard
and complicated.
276
00:10:08,166 --> 00:10:09,967
You got a giant
turkey breast here
277
00:10:09,967 --> 00:10:11,867
that we kinda trimmed
to box size.
278
00:10:11,867 --> 00:10:14,867
I injected it,
then got a nice rub on there.
279
00:10:14,867 --> 00:10:17,467
It's the turkey smoke,
and they're all about turkey.
280
00:10:17,467 --> 00:10:19,600
And, man, you put a good pieceof turkey in front of them,
281
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,266
- they get excited about that.
-[Michael] Yeah.
282
00:10:21,266 --> 00:10:24,600
So there's a lot
of interesting fun stuff
going on with turkey today.
283
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,367
Some teams are reallyflexing their creativity,
284
00:10:27,367 --> 00:10:29,100
while othersare sticking with tradition.
285
00:10:29,100 --> 00:10:30,000
We're just gonnahave to see which methodgets the judges fired up.
286
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,433
We're just gonnahave to see which methodgets the judges fired up.
287
00:10:36,467 --> 00:10:37,900
[Michael] I'm atKansas Speedway
288
00:10:37,900 --> 00:10:40,900
for the massive American RoyalBarbecue Festival,
289
00:10:40,900 --> 00:10:43,467
where over 500 teamsare competing
290
00:10:43,467 --> 00:10:46,467
to be the world championof barbecue.
291
00:10:46,467 --> 00:10:49,900
The American Royal is
the biggest contest
in the world.
292
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:52,166
Anybody who's anybodyin barbecue
293
00:10:52,166 --> 00:10:53,734
is at this contest.
294
00:10:53,734 --> 00:10:55,734
You can go beat people
back home,
295
00:10:55,734 --> 00:10:57,100
but you really wannacome out here
296
00:10:57,100 --> 00:10:59,634
and see how your stuffcompares to everybody elseout here.
297
00:10:59,634 --> 00:11:01,800
Clear eyes, full hearts, baby.
Let's go.
298
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,166
[Michael] It maystill be early,
299
00:11:03,166 --> 00:11:04,967
but some of thesemeat turn-ins come at youfast and furious.
300
00:11:04,967 --> 00:11:06,467
but some of thesemeat turn-ins come at youfast and furious.
301
00:11:06,467 --> 00:11:08,800
It all starts with turkeyat 11:30.
302
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,734
Then there's another meat dueevery half hour,
303
00:11:11,734 --> 00:11:13,734
ending with sausageat 2:00 p.m.
304
00:11:13,734 --> 00:11:17,166
That's six turn-insin two-and-a-half hours,
305
00:11:17,166 --> 00:11:18,900
so every minute counts.
306
00:11:18,900 --> 00:11:20,100
Morning, guys.
307
00:11:20,100 --> 00:11:22,000
-[Megan] Oh, hey.
-What you got going
with the ribs?
308
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,800
[Jason] These are spare ribs
309
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,900
-that we packed in brown sugar
last night.
-With sugar.
310
00:11:26,900 --> 00:11:29,634
[Jason] So we are gonna doa little something differentwith our ribs.
311
00:11:29,634 --> 00:11:31,634
We're sugar curing
the ribs, baby.
312
00:11:31,634 --> 00:11:34,000
[Jason] So she's gonna start
rinsing off the sugar.
313
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:34,967
We want them to look
like a slab of bacon.
314
00:11:34,967 --> 00:11:36,166
We want them to look
like a slab of bacon.
315
00:11:36,166 --> 00:11:37,100
[Michael] I love this.
316
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:39,266
Sugar curing isan old-school technique
317
00:11:39,266 --> 00:11:41,166
that adds a nice bark texture
318
00:11:41,166 --> 00:11:43,367
and also intensifiesthe color.
319
00:11:43,367 --> 00:11:44,900
That is a really dark red
320
00:11:44,900 --> 00:11:47,734
-in comparison to what
it looked like before.
-[Michael] Oh, 100%.
321
00:11:47,734 --> 00:11:50,367
[Jason] We've placedin every categorythe Royal has to offer.
322
00:11:50,367 --> 00:11:53,100
-Except one. Except ribs.
-Except ribs. Yeah.
323
00:11:53,100 --> 00:11:55,000
We're hoping thatthis sugar cure on the ribs
324
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,100
is gonna take usto the awards stage.
325
00:11:56,100 --> 00:11:57,900
I'm really excited
to try these.
326
00:11:59,266 --> 00:12:02,467
Another method teams useto make their ribs stand outfrom the pack
327
00:12:02,467 --> 00:12:04,166
is addingdifferent types of rubs.
328
00:12:04,166 --> 00:12:04,967
So my rib rub, you know,
it's like a bottle
of New York.
329
00:12:04,967 --> 00:12:07,600
So my rib rub, you know,
it's like a bottle
of New York.
330
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,734
It's got cumin, allspice.It's everything I kindagrew up with.
331
00:12:11,734 --> 00:12:16,100
So this is salt, pepper,
onion, garlic.
332
00:12:16,100 --> 00:12:19,367
The salty, savoriness
that's at the very bottom
of the rib.
333
00:12:19,367 --> 00:12:23,533
-Megan's coming back with all
purpose competition dry rub.
-Competition all purpose.
334
00:12:23,533 --> 00:12:26,166
[Jason] It's got onion,
celery, paprika in it.
335
00:12:26,166 --> 00:12:27,900
That's just gonna give
the base of our color.
336
00:12:27,900 --> 00:12:29,867
Then we've got a sweeter rub
337
00:12:29,867 --> 00:12:32,600
that we're gonna come back
on top of all of this.
338
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,967
It just keeps building
the next layer of flavor.
339
00:12:34,967 --> 00:12:35,166
It just keeps building
the next layer of flavor.
340
00:12:35,166 --> 00:12:37,166
[Jason] Somewhat, like,salty base with sweet on top.
341
00:12:37,166 --> 00:12:39,433
-Uh, like a chocolate
covered pretzel.
-[laughs]
342
00:12:41,900 --> 00:12:43,367
[Michael] Good morning.
How are you guys?
343
00:12:43,367 --> 00:12:46,266
I pay a quick visitto last year'sAmerican Royal winners,
344
00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:47,533
Triple H BBQ,
345
00:12:47,533 --> 00:12:51,467
who share a greatrub technique they useto enhance their ribs.
346
00:12:51,467 --> 00:12:54,867
Just gonna go on real light.
I'm going to poke holes
in all the fat.
347
00:12:54,867 --> 00:12:56,533
-To kind of--
-[Andrea] So this is
one of our little...
348
00:12:56,533 --> 00:12:57,634
[Bill] Little secrets,
I guess.
349
00:12:57,634 --> 00:12:59,000
-[Michael] No,
that's a good secret.
-[Bill] Um...
350
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,634
Pretty good poke, go again.
351
00:13:00,634 --> 00:13:02,734
This is a great little tip
for you at home.
352
00:13:02,734 --> 00:13:04,967
He's got almost like
a little cocktail fork.
353
00:13:04,967 --> 00:13:05,000
He's got almost like
a little cocktail fork.
354
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:06,533
He's not poking
through the meat.
355
00:13:06,533 --> 00:13:10,100
He's looking kind of
where the fat pockets
are on those ribs,
356
00:13:10,100 --> 00:13:11,367
giving it a little poke.
357
00:13:11,367 --> 00:13:15,100
It allows the rub
and the seasonings
to permeate it a little bit.
358
00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:16,800
It's breaking up the fat
a little bit.
359
00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:18,066
I like it.
360
00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:22,000
With the ribsfinally on the smoker,
361
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,100
the teams need to pivotback to turkey
362
00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:27,367
because their first turn-indeadline is fast approaching.
363
00:13:27,367 --> 00:13:29,634
-[Kyle] What's up, amigo?
-What's going on?
364
00:13:29,634 --> 00:13:30,800
[Kyle] Slicing some turkey.
365
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,166
-There you go, sir.
-Beautiful. Thank you.
366
00:13:33,166 --> 00:13:34,900
We cooked it low and slow,
367
00:13:34,900 --> 00:13:34,967
-about four-and-a-half
hours outside.
-Mmm-hmm.
368
00:13:34,967 --> 00:13:37,066
-about four-and-a-half
hours outside.
-Mmm-hmm.
369
00:13:37,467 --> 00:13:38,467
Ooh.
370
00:13:38,467 --> 00:13:39,900
-What you think?
-That's good.
371
00:13:39,900 --> 00:13:41,734
You guys did the turkey
on the bone.
372
00:13:41,734 --> 00:13:43,233
Correct, on the bone.
373
00:13:43,233 --> 00:13:45,166
[Michael] You know, like,
a lot of times you see
people smoke turkey breast,
374
00:13:45,166 --> 00:13:46,533
they smoke it off the bone.
375
00:13:46,533 --> 00:13:49,000
But, like,
all that moisture and flavor
comes from the bone.
376
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,367
-It really, it protects you,
you know?
-Exactly, yes.
377
00:13:51,367 --> 00:13:53,467
-That's why we like
to use it on the bone.
-Yep.
378
00:13:53,467 --> 00:13:55,533
So, we also made
a turkey gravy.
379
00:13:55,533 --> 00:13:56,867
My dad's heating it up.
380
00:13:56,867 --> 00:13:58,800
It seems like
he's the secret weapon
a little bit.
381
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,266
-You know, he's the one
that got me into all this.
-Okay.
382
00:14:01,266 --> 00:14:02,266
[Kyle] My dad loves to cook.
383
00:14:02,266 --> 00:14:04,734
He was the guythat cooked for our family.
384
00:14:04,734 --> 00:14:04,967
So I was like,
"You know what?"
385
00:14:04,967 --> 00:14:06,100
So I was like,
"You know what?"
386
00:14:06,100 --> 00:14:08,700
I went and bought him
a real cheap, cheap,
cheap smoker,
387
00:14:08,700 --> 00:14:10,867
now that I look at it, from
one of the hardware stores.
388
00:14:10,867 --> 00:14:13,367
I brought it home,
and we cooked on that
every weekend.
389
00:14:13,367 --> 00:14:15,600
Found a barbecue contest,
him and I went out there.
390
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,166
It was 127 teams there.
391
00:14:17,166 --> 00:14:19,367
It's massive.
We don't know
what we're doing.
392
00:14:19,367 --> 00:14:21,467
We got a seventh placechicken call.
393
00:14:21,467 --> 00:14:24,000
So to see my pops walk
up on that stage smiling,
394
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,700
-and I was like, "Yo..."
-That's a good story.
395
00:14:25,700 --> 00:14:26,734
You know what I'm saying?
396
00:14:26,734 --> 00:14:29,166
Ever since then,
it just snowballed.
397
00:14:29,166 --> 00:14:30,867
Now we do two, three a month.
398
00:14:32,166 --> 00:14:33,467
[Michael] What's in the gravy?
399
00:14:33,467 --> 00:14:34,967
[Pops] We've got
onions in there,
the stock from the turkey.
400
00:14:34,967 --> 00:14:35,867
[Pops] We've got
onions in there,
the stock from the turkey.
401
00:14:35,867 --> 00:14:38,166
-We've got some
Hatch green chiles.
-Beautiful.
402
00:14:38,166 --> 00:14:40,700
[Pops] The gravy sucks up
into the meat
403
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:43,867
-and it really makes for
a really juicy chimichanga.
-[Michael] Yeah.
404
00:14:43,867 --> 00:14:45,367
[chuckles] I might do this
for Thanksgiving.
405
00:14:45,367 --> 00:14:48,166
[all laughing]
406
00:14:48,166 --> 00:14:49,900
With the turkeyin a good place,
407
00:14:49,900 --> 00:14:52,367
the teams refocuson wrapping the ribs
408
00:14:52,367 --> 00:14:54,634
to pack in even more flavor.
409
00:14:54,634 --> 00:14:58,000
This is not gonna be
your normal barbecue
restaurant barbecue.
410
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,367
They only taking one bite,
411
00:14:59,367 --> 00:15:01,266
and you have to smack them
in the mouth
412
00:15:01,266 --> 00:15:02,367
with just one bite.
413
00:15:03,734 --> 00:15:04,967
[Phil B] So as faras what the judgesare looking for,
414
00:15:04,967 --> 00:15:05,734
[Phil B] So as faras what the judgesare looking for,
415
00:15:05,734 --> 00:15:07,900
you know, I think
it would be balance.
416
00:15:07,900 --> 00:15:10,166
I never wanna go too farin any direction.
417
00:15:10,166 --> 00:15:13,367
I wanna provide balanceto the judge where they geta little bit of everything,
418
00:15:13,367 --> 00:15:15,467
but not too much of anything.
419
00:15:15,467 --> 00:15:17,100
Looks like some
rib wrapping over there.
420
00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:20,367
-You got butter, brown sugar.
-And look.
421
00:15:20,367 --> 00:15:22,700
I made some bacon, egg,
and cheese sandwiches
this morning...
422
00:15:22,700 --> 00:15:24,900
-Oh, all right.
-...and I had
leftover bacon fat.
423
00:15:24,900 --> 00:15:28,100
-Guess what's going
in my wrap. See?
-All right. [laughs]
424
00:15:28,100 --> 00:15:31,100
Yo, this is why they call me
the JAY-Z of barbecue.
425
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:34,266
The freestyle, 'cause this
wasn't part of my recipe
till this morning.
426
00:15:34,266 --> 00:15:34,967
I'm hoping that the bacon fat,
427
00:15:34,967 --> 00:15:36,800
I'm hoping that the bacon fat,
428
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,367
it will also add that
fried bacon flavor in it,
you know?
429
00:15:40,367 --> 00:15:41,800
That's what I'm looking for.
430
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,467
Put back what came out of it.
431
00:15:43,467 --> 00:15:46,266
-Well, yeah, exactly.
All right.
-[both laughing]
432
00:15:46,266 --> 00:15:47,533
What I like about cooking
433
00:15:47,533 --> 00:15:50,600
is you have a recipeand a blueprint you follow,
434
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,367
but then you can tweak it.
435
00:15:52,367 --> 00:15:54,367
I call it P. Diddy-ing
a recipe.
436
00:15:54,367 --> 00:15:56,467
It's the remix of the recipe,
437
00:15:56,467 --> 00:15:57,734
and that's what I'm about.
438
00:15:58,634 --> 00:16:00,900
-Why are we at 200 on this?
-[Megan gasps softly]
439
00:16:00,900 --> 00:16:02,233
We're out of pellets.
440
00:16:02,233 --> 00:16:04,967
[Michael] The normalbarbecue competition lineupof four meats
441
00:16:04,967 --> 00:16:05,000
[Michael] The normalbarbecue competition lineupof four meats
442
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,166
is already relentless.
443
00:16:06,166 --> 00:16:07,533
But adding two extra meats
444
00:16:07,533 --> 00:16:11,467
means these teams need to keepthe pedal to the metalall day long.
445
00:16:11,467 --> 00:16:14,800
Right now, we got,
we got four meats on,
446
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:15,900
and chicken's gonna
go on pretty soon.
447
00:16:15,900 --> 00:16:18,266
So we're about to have
five meats on the pit at once.
448
00:16:18,266 --> 00:16:22,467
So it's, uh, something that'll
keep you on your toes,
for sure.
449
00:16:22,467 --> 00:16:26,000
I was a little worried about
not having enough smokers,
450
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,367
'cause you got
actually five meats
you gotta do, right?
451
00:16:29,367 --> 00:16:32,100
So you got turkey,
you got ribs,
452
00:16:32,100 --> 00:16:34,000
you got brisket, you got pork,
453
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:34,967
and you got sausage.
454
00:16:34,967 --> 00:16:35,367
and you got sausage.
455
00:16:35,367 --> 00:16:38,467
[Michael] Um, actually, Phil,you have six meats today.
456
00:16:38,467 --> 00:16:40,700
Uh, looks likeyou might have forgotten one.
457
00:16:40,700 --> 00:16:42,800
[man] Probably get, uh...
458
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,367
[woman] Which, which is
the chicken in?
459
00:16:44,367 --> 00:16:46,634
Uh, the orange one.
460
00:16:46,634 --> 00:16:48,533
[Michael] When our crew asksto shoot the chicken,
461
00:16:48,533 --> 00:16:51,000
Phil realizesit slipped his mind.
462
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,367
Wait, did I put it in?
463
00:16:52,367 --> 00:16:54,634
-I didn't...
-No, we didn't put it in yet.
464
00:16:54,634 --> 00:16:56,000
-That's the drama.
-Where's the chicken?
465
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,734
[laughs] I didn't
put the chicken...
466
00:16:57,734 --> 00:16:59,166
I thought
I put the chicken on.
467
00:16:59,166 --> 00:17:00,867
The chicken ain't in.
468
00:17:00,867 --> 00:17:04,634
Uh, that turkey,
you know what I mean?
It throws things off.
469
00:17:04,634 --> 00:17:04,967
See, turkey messing me up.
470
00:17:04,967 --> 00:17:06,634
See, turkey messing me up.
471
00:17:06,634 --> 00:17:08,166
Turkey's a turkey.
472
00:17:12,367 --> 00:17:14,367
[Michael] Here atthe American RoyalWorld Series of Barbecue,
473
00:17:14,367 --> 00:17:18,100
they are giving out $7,500in prize money
474
00:17:18,100 --> 00:17:20,467
for six differentmeat categories.
475
00:17:20,467 --> 00:17:23,266
But keeping track of six meatscan be a real challenge.
476
00:17:23,266 --> 00:17:24,867
[laughing] I thought
I put the chicken on.
477
00:17:24,867 --> 00:17:26,166
The chicken ain't in.
478
00:17:26,166 --> 00:17:28,066
Turkey has just got mea little uptight
479
00:17:28,066 --> 00:17:30,634
because, you know,it's not part of the program.
480
00:17:30,634 --> 00:17:33,166
We're a hour away
from turkey turn-in right now.
481
00:17:33,166 --> 00:17:35,700
So I'm getting nervous,
getting my thoughts ready.
482
00:17:35,700 --> 00:17:38,500
I gotta get chicken done
and these sandwiches together.
483
00:17:38,500 --> 00:17:40,700
[Michael] As it gets closerto turkey turn-in,
484
00:17:40,700 --> 00:17:40,820
the pitmastersbegin to preparetheir creative entries.
485
00:17:40,820 --> 00:17:43,333
the pitmastersbegin to preparetheir creative entries.
486
00:17:44,367 --> 00:17:46,467
Turkey, take me home, baby.
487
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,066
-Mmm.
-That's delicious.
488
00:17:48,066 --> 00:17:49,867
[Phil J] I'm doingthis turkey sandwich,
489
00:17:49,867 --> 00:17:52,000
but it's a Japanese style.
490
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,166
I'm gonna add a panko crust
to that turkey
491
00:17:55,166 --> 00:17:57,433
to give it that extra
Phil the Grill loving.
492
00:17:58,734 --> 00:18:00,333
Whoo-hoo!
493
00:18:00,867 --> 00:18:02,734
You know,
I like to play around.
494
00:18:02,734 --> 00:18:04,734
That's why they call me
Phil the Grill,
495
00:18:04,734 --> 00:18:06,367
the freestyle barbecuer.
496
00:18:06,367 --> 00:18:09,266
See? This is the wow factor.
497
00:18:09,266 --> 00:18:10,820
So right now, I'm toasting
the milk bread from Japan.
498
00:18:10,820 --> 00:18:12,967
So right now, I'm toasting
the milk bread from Japan.
499
00:18:12,967 --> 00:18:16,066
It's like a Texas toast
mixed with a croissant.
500
00:18:16,066 --> 00:18:19,600
Now I'm just hoping that
it's something to knock
the judges' socks off.
501
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:21,533
Either I'm gonna win big
or lose big.
502
00:18:21,533 --> 00:18:23,100
[laughing]
503
00:18:23,100 --> 00:18:25,000
All right. Here, try this.
504
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,500
Let's see what we got.
505
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:27,967
All right, so there
you guys go. Look.
506
00:18:27,967 --> 00:18:29,066
This is a great bread.
507
00:18:29,066 --> 00:18:32,066
It crisps up nice,
but it's very soft
in the center.
508
00:18:32,066 --> 00:18:34,000
And then he panko-crusted
the turkey,
509
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:35,600
so that's gonna give it
a lot of crunch.
510
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,166
-What's in the sauce?
-I got sake, Worcestershire,
511
00:18:38,166 --> 00:18:40,367
-ketchup, mustard, honey.
-It's nice.
512
00:18:40,367 --> 00:18:40,820
-Yep, yep.
-It's nice, sweet,
got some nice depth.
513
00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:43,100
-Yep, yep.
-It's nice, sweet,
got some nice depth.
514
00:18:48,467 --> 00:18:50,367
-Huh?
-[Michael] Pretty good, Phil.
515
00:18:50,367 --> 00:18:51,867
[laughs]
516
00:18:51,867 --> 00:18:55,266
Turkey's super juicy,
great textures.
517
00:18:56,166 --> 00:18:57,800
Really, really nice flavors.
518
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,166
It's simple
and straightforward,
but really good.
519
00:19:01,166 --> 00:19:03,100
-[Phil J] Thank you.
-Don't sleep on Phil.
520
00:19:03,100 --> 00:19:06,467
-[Phil J laughing]
-They don't call him Phil
the Grill for nothing, baby.
521
00:19:08,066 --> 00:19:09,367
Over at YSB,
522
00:19:09,367 --> 00:19:10,820
Pops is puttingthat smoked turkey meat
523
00:19:10,820 --> 00:19:11,367
Pops is puttingthat smoked turkey meat
524
00:19:11,367 --> 00:19:13,734
that's been sauteingin the Hatch chile gravy
525
00:19:13,734 --> 00:19:16,166
in a tortillaand frying it up.
526
00:19:16,166 --> 00:19:19,166
-I smell some chimichanga
magic happening.
-[Pops] You bet ya.
527
00:19:23,166 --> 00:19:25,367
-[Michael] That's
a delicious bite.
-Look at the chile.
528
00:19:25,367 --> 00:19:28,533
See the chile in there,
filled with that
smoked turkey?
529
00:19:28,533 --> 00:19:31,166
Good smoked flavor,
little bit of bite
in that sauce.
530
00:19:31,166 --> 00:19:33,166
And then that
avocado crema on top
531
00:19:33,166 --> 00:19:35,000
just kinda smooths
everything out.
532
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,800
Great texture with the fry.
533
00:19:37,467 --> 00:19:39,066
All day, I could eat these.
534
00:19:39,634 --> 00:19:40,820
Great job, Dad.
535
00:19:40,820 --> 00:19:40,867
Great job, Dad.
536
00:19:40,867 --> 00:19:43,333
-Got the secret weapon
loaded back here.
-[chuckles]
537
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,467
Can see the turkey.
538
00:19:50,066 --> 00:19:51,367
Turkey is awesome.
539
00:19:51,367 --> 00:19:55,467
So now, we just gotta quickly
build all the rest of it,
540
00:19:55,467 --> 00:19:56,600
try to make it look pretty.
541
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,734
[Michael] Burnt Finger'sturkey pastrami Reubens
542
00:19:58,734 --> 00:20:01,000
are getting loadedwith tangy flavors
543
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,166
like Gruyere cheese,sauerkraut,
544
00:20:03,166 --> 00:20:04,734
and Thousand Island dressing.
545
00:20:04,734 --> 00:20:08,500
[Megan] We should have been
building about seven or eight
minutes ago, at least.
546
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:10,820
-Yeah.
-11:07 right now.
547
00:20:10,820 --> 00:20:11,100
-Yeah.
-11:07 right now.
548
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:12,967
[Megan] We haveto turn it in at 11:30,
549
00:20:12,967 --> 00:20:15,100
so we are hustlingto get this toasted.
550
00:20:16,166 --> 00:20:18,266
So we just gotta give it
a little bit of time on there.
551
00:20:19,166 --> 00:20:21,367
We don't have a lot,
'cause I still have to walk
552
00:20:22,066 --> 00:20:23,967
with a pretty box.
553
00:20:23,967 --> 00:20:26,266
That's not getting as hot
as I thought it was going to,
554
00:20:27,066 --> 00:20:28,600
and I think my fire went out.
555
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,066
-There's always hiccups
along the road.
-All right.
556
00:20:31,066 --> 00:20:32,967
[Michael] With one smokerout of commission
557
00:20:32,967 --> 00:20:34,467
and no time to spare,
558
00:20:34,467 --> 00:20:36,867
Burnt Finger scramblesfor another solution.
559
00:20:36,867 --> 00:20:39,533
Audible, audible, audible.
Okay, we got 10 minutes.
560
00:20:39,533 --> 00:20:40,820
So we're either gonna havelunch or a turn-in.
561
00:20:40,820 --> 00:20:41,467
So we're either gonna havelunch or a turn-in.
562
00:20:46,100 --> 00:20:48,867
[Michael] It's interestingto see how a lot of peopledo the turkey.
563
00:20:48,867 --> 00:20:53,467
Some are just doingstraight-up smoked,sliced, classic presentation.
564
00:20:53,467 --> 00:20:55,533
[Phil B] The partabout my food thatmakes me the proudest
565
00:20:55,533 --> 00:20:57,533
is typically my presentation.
566
00:20:57,533 --> 00:20:59,367
I just like makingpretty barbecue.
567
00:20:59,367 --> 00:21:01,000
I like when that judgeopens that box, they go,
568
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,867
"Wow, this is
something special."
569
00:21:02,867 --> 00:21:05,867
[Michael] Others are givingthe judges somethingthey might not expect.
570
00:21:05,867 --> 00:21:10,820
[Pops] Hoping that
the taste of these things
will overcome the appearance.
571
00:21:10,820 --> 00:21:11,166
[Pops] Hoping that
the taste of these things
will overcome the appearance.
572
00:21:11,166 --> 00:21:14,367
I wasn't too impressedwith how the box turned out
573
00:21:14,367 --> 00:21:16,066
from appearance perspective.
574
00:21:16,066 --> 00:21:19,367
I should've had
the chimichangas, like,
propped up after I cut it
575
00:21:19,367 --> 00:21:22,734
so you can actually seethe chile and stuffinside of it.
576
00:21:22,734 --> 00:21:26,367
But hopefully, the judges
will like the flavor,
577
00:21:26,367 --> 00:21:28,800
and the appearance won't be
that big of a deal.
578
00:21:29,266 --> 00:21:30,700
Okay. We're good.
579
00:21:30,700 --> 00:21:32,000
One of our traditions...
580
00:21:33,367 --> 00:21:34,533
...kiss the box.
581
00:21:35,700 --> 00:21:37,333
-Thank you so much.
-All right.
582
00:21:38,166 --> 00:21:39,634
Let's go, Phil!
583
00:21:39,634 --> 00:21:40,820
Don't miss that turn-in.
584
00:21:40,820 --> 00:21:41,066
Don't miss that turn-in.
585
00:21:41,066 --> 00:21:42,367
[Phil J] Yo, let me
borrow your box!
586
00:21:42,367 --> 00:21:44,266
You can't borrow a turn-in!
587
00:21:44,266 --> 00:21:45,600
[laughs]
588
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,066
[turkey gobbling]
589
00:21:48,066 --> 00:21:49,867
[Phil J] That's the gobbleof the turkey.
590
00:21:49,867 --> 00:21:53,166
So I felt a little bitdisappointed with the turkey.
591
00:21:53,166 --> 00:21:54,600
Like, after I put it
in the box,
592
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,467
I didn't really like
my presentation anymore.
593
00:21:57,467 --> 00:22:01,166
But it was tasty dish.So let's see what I do.
594
00:22:02,500 --> 00:22:04,166
Okay, guys, the line
is fast and furious.
595
00:22:04,166 --> 00:22:06,500
Everybody is droppingtheir boxes right now
596
00:22:06,500 --> 00:22:09,600
so they can get backand start working onthe next thing.
597
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:10,820
'Cause remember, they've gotfive more turn-ins to go
598
00:22:10,820 --> 00:22:13,266
'Cause remember, they've gotfive more turn-ins to go
599
00:22:13,266 --> 00:22:15,634
with another deadlineevery 30 minutes.
600
00:22:15,634 --> 00:22:16,867
[Megan] It's got
good grill marks,
601
00:22:16,867 --> 00:22:19,467
but it probably needs
a little zhushing.
602
00:22:19,467 --> 00:22:21,166
[Jason] Hopefully
the marble rye
doesn't look burnt.
603
00:22:21,166 --> 00:22:23,600
-[Megan] I...
-[Jason] Hopefully now
it tastes better.
604
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,066
We're gonna see
if that works against us.
605
00:22:26,066 --> 00:22:28,867
Since we decided to dosome grill marks on it,
606
00:22:28,867 --> 00:22:31,166
-hopefully they don't think
that pumpernickel's burnt.
-Yeah.
607
00:22:31,166 --> 00:22:32,433
All right. I'm out.
608
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,734
See you. Watch the scooter.
609
00:22:34,734 --> 00:22:36,600
-We might have
sacrificed appearance...
-Appearance...
610
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,000
-...just a little bit.
-...for flavor.
611
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:39,500
-For flavor.
-And texture.
612
00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:40,820
[Jason] Yeah, the marble ryedefinitely tasted betteron the sandwich.
613
00:22:40,820 --> 00:22:41,600
[Jason] Yeah, the marble ryedefinitely tasted betteron the sandwich.
614
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,066
So we'll see.
615
00:22:43,066 --> 00:22:45,066
-Hopefully we're the only
Reuben out there. [laughs]
-Yeah.
616
00:22:45,066 --> 00:22:47,100
[Michael] Cash and prideare on the line.
617
00:22:47,100 --> 00:22:49,367
We're gonna see what
our appearance scores do.
618
00:22:49,367 --> 00:22:50,867
[Michael] And withturkey turned in,
619
00:22:50,867 --> 00:22:53,800
the competitionis starting to heat up.
620
00:22:57,367 --> 00:22:58,367
[announcer]
...world series barbecue.
621
00:22:58,367 --> 00:22:59,533
We have barbecuesauce wrestling.
622
00:22:59,533 --> 00:23:01,066
We want to see people wrestle!Let's do it!
623
00:23:02,266 --> 00:23:04,467
[Michael] Thingsare heating upat the American Royal.
624
00:23:04,467 --> 00:23:06,367
Turkey and chickenare in the rear view.
625
00:23:06,367 --> 00:23:09,100
Now teams are laser focusedon ribs.
626
00:23:09,100 --> 00:23:12,000
Down to the last
couple of details,
627
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,000
we've picked the onesthat we think have
628
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,000
the best appearance,flavor, texture.
629
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,000
[Kyle] There's probablyeight or nine different saucesinside this sauce.
630
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,266
When a judge eats it,all these flavors are goingaround in their head,
631
00:23:23,266 --> 00:23:24,900
and they're like,
"What was that?"
632
00:23:24,900 --> 00:23:26,249
And they can't do nothing
but give you
a high score for it.
633
00:23:26,249 --> 00:23:26,900
And they can't do nothing
but give you
a high score for it.
634
00:23:27,467 --> 00:23:29,367
[Phil J exclaims]
635
00:23:29,367 --> 00:23:31,100
Look at them ribs flow, baby!
636
00:23:31,100 --> 00:23:32,367
[Carmen] All right,
we're going in.
637
00:23:32,367 --> 00:23:33,600
All righty.
638
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,166
-Let's go, baby.
-You got four minutes.
639
00:23:37,166 --> 00:23:40,533
[Michael] A few of our teamstook some prettybig swings in ribs.
640
00:23:40,533 --> 00:23:41,867
So it'll be interesting to see
641
00:23:41,867 --> 00:23:43,800
if their shakeupsimpress the judges.
642
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,533
Ribs, I thought
it was amazing.
643
00:23:45,533 --> 00:23:47,634
I gave, like,10 ribs in a box.
644
00:23:47,634 --> 00:23:49,166
They were all niceand glistened.
645
00:23:49,166 --> 00:23:51,533
I think my bacon fatdefinitely helped.
646
00:23:51,533 --> 00:23:53,533
[Michael] I can't wait to seehow Burnt Finger's
647
00:23:53,533 --> 00:23:55,367
sugar curingtechnique pays off.
648
00:23:55,367 --> 00:23:56,249
Luckily, they saved me a few.
649
00:23:56,249 --> 00:23:57,000
Luckily, they saved me a few.
650
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,000
-Okay.
-You can see the color
that that...
651
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,867
-Oh, look at that.
-...sugar cure put on them.
652
00:24:00,867 --> 00:24:02,166
[Michael] So that's
kinda awesome.
653
00:24:02,166 --> 00:24:04,867
It creates this little
cure in there
654
00:24:04,867 --> 00:24:06,634
by, like, the deep rosy pink.
655
00:24:09,367 --> 00:24:10,900
You get a nice sweetness.
656
00:24:10,900 --> 00:24:13,000
But look at how rosy
the meat is,
657
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,100
and that's 'cause of the cure.
658
00:24:14,100 --> 00:24:15,734
I think that is a great trick.
659
00:24:15,734 --> 00:24:18,100
We hope that the judges
are ready for that. [laughs]
660
00:24:18,100 --> 00:24:19,367
If they're not, shame on them.
661
00:24:19,367 --> 00:24:21,266
Because that's a special rib.
662
00:24:21,266 --> 00:24:24,100
Let's go, baby! Let's go!
663
00:24:24,100 --> 00:24:25,634
[Michael] As the teamsjuggle the big meats,
664
00:24:25,634 --> 00:24:26,249
pork and brisket...
665
00:24:26,249 --> 00:24:26,900
pork and brisket...
666
00:24:26,900 --> 00:24:28,533
[Phil B] Getting close,
not quite there.
667
00:24:28,533 --> 00:24:31,367
[Michael] ...they're alsoprepping some realshow stoppers
668
00:24:31,367 --> 00:24:34,266

669
00:24:34,266 --> 00:24:36,367
-It smells fantastic.
-Smells really good.
670
00:24:36,367 --> 00:24:38,266
[Michael] Sausageis a special category
671
00:24:38,266 --> 00:24:39,467
here at the American Royal,
672
00:24:39,467 --> 00:24:42,000
and one you don't seeat a lot of competitions.
673
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,000
Similar tothe turkey category,
674
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,467
the competitors are giventhe freedom to flex
675
00:24:46,467 --> 00:24:47,634
their creative muscles
676
00:24:47,634 --> 00:24:50,000
and whip up sometruly mouth-watering
677
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,166
sausage turn-ins.
678
00:24:51,166 --> 00:24:52,467
So okay, what do we got going?
679
00:24:52,467 --> 00:24:54,100
We got our pork bombs.
680
00:24:54,100 --> 00:24:56,249
It's pork sausage
wrapped in maple bacon
681
00:24:56,249 --> 00:24:57,600
It's pork sausage
wrapped in maple bacon
682
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,467
with two types of cheese,
cheddar and Monterey jack,
683
00:25:00,467 --> 00:25:02,800
and poblano and onion,
684
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,900
-so that gives it
a good flavor, yeah.
-A little heat.
685
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:06,467
-Not too much, but...
-[Michael] Huh? No,
686
00:25:06,467 --> 00:25:07,734
-a delicate heat.
-A delicate heat.
687
00:25:07,734 --> 00:25:10,000
So those are gonna be tasty,
688
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,100
that sage-flavored sausage,cheese, poblano,
689
00:25:13,100 --> 00:25:15,100
wrapped in bacon.
I mean, come on.
690
00:25:15,100 --> 00:25:17,600
But LC isn't the only teamlooking to get
691
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,467
some extra mileageby adding bacon.
692
00:25:19,467 --> 00:25:21,600
It's how you win
the sausage category,
693
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,467
you put a lot of bacon in it.
694
00:25:24,467 --> 00:25:26,249
So the sausage category,we're doingthe bacon explosion,
695
00:25:26,249 --> 00:25:27,800
So the sausage category,we're doingthe bacon explosion,
696
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,800
which is a bacon-wrapped,
bacon-stuffed
barbecue sausage.
697
00:25:31,367 --> 00:25:33,266
I call this meats and crafts.
698
00:25:33,266 --> 00:25:36,367
The bacon explosion
was something I created
years ago.
699
00:25:36,367 --> 00:25:38,266
-Over a decade.
-Yeah, I had a barbecue blog,
700
00:25:38,266 --> 00:25:40,100
and it was
the second article...
701
00:25:40,100 --> 00:25:42,100
-[Megan] That we wrote!- [Jason laughing] ...that wewrote for the blog,
702
00:25:42,100 --> 00:25:43,900
and it went viralacross the internet.
703
00:25:43,900 --> 00:25:47,100
-It was...
-The most downloaded recipe
in the history of the internet
704
00:25:47,100 --> 00:25:48,900
-at the time.
-At that time.
705
00:25:48,900 --> 00:25:52,000
[Megan] I have two pounds of
just good old chub sausage,
706
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:56,249
then I'm gonna add
some canned jalapenos.
707
00:25:56,249 --> 00:25:56,266
then I'm gonna add
some canned jalapenos.
708
00:25:56,266 --> 00:25:57,467
-We're bringing it back.
-Yeah,
709
00:25:57,467 --> 00:25:59,100
but we're gonna kick it upa notch for this year,
710
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:01,000
we're doing a cheesyjalapeno version
711
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,367
of the bacon explosionthis year atthe American Royal.
712
00:26:03,367 --> 00:26:05,867
So I fried up more bacon.
713
00:26:05,867 --> 00:26:08,467
[Michael] So it's sausagewrapped in bacon,
714
00:26:08,467 --> 00:26:09,900
and stuffed with bacon,
715
00:26:09,900 --> 00:26:11,800
then rolled up and smoked?
716
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,166
Oh, man. I think I'm in love.
717
00:26:15,734 --> 00:26:17,166
I got these sausages.
718
00:26:17,867 --> 00:26:19,166
Homemade, baby,
719
00:26:19,166 --> 00:26:22,100
from the same brisket
that I'm turning in today.
720
00:26:22,100 --> 00:26:25,367
So with sausage, I'm going in
my back of tricks again,
721
00:26:25,367 --> 00:26:26,249
doing a pineapple
jerk sausage.
722
00:26:26,249 --> 00:26:27,867
doing a pineapple
jerk sausage.
723
00:26:27,867 --> 00:26:32,100
Who else is making
jerk pineapple cheddar
sausages today, huh?
724
00:26:32,100 --> 00:26:34,000
You either gonna love it
or you gonna hate it.
725
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,333
There's no in between for me.
Never is.
726
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,700
I am in charge of the sausage.
727
00:26:38,700 --> 00:26:42,634
It is a chickenjalapeno cheddar sausage.
728
00:26:42,634 --> 00:26:44,734
We're gonna smokefor about an hour
729
00:26:44,734 --> 00:26:47,000
to about 160-ish,
730
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,900
and then we're gonnapan-fry just a little bit.
731
00:26:49,900 --> 00:26:52,867
We want to crisp it up,just so when the judgesbite that,
732
00:26:52,867 --> 00:26:54,533
they can get throughthat casing.
733
00:26:58,367 --> 00:27:00,467
[Michael] At LC BBQ,I'm pulled into
734
00:27:00,467 --> 00:27:02,066
an importantgarnish discussion.
735
00:27:02,700 --> 00:27:03,867
What's up, guys?
736
00:27:03,867 --> 00:27:05,634
[Phil B] So we're trying
to decide...
She's trying to decide
737
00:27:05,634 --> 00:27:07,467
do I go with
the candied jalapeno?
738
00:27:07,467 --> 00:27:08,734
I don't know, baby,
that's up to you.
739
00:27:08,734 --> 00:27:10,634
-[Carmen] Yeah.
-I told her she ain't
gonna pin it on me...
740
00:27:10,634 --> 00:27:12,000
[laughs]
741
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,266
[Phil B] It might beup to Michael.
742
00:27:13,266 --> 00:27:15,367
[all laughing]
743
00:27:15,367 --> 00:27:17,266
In the words of you,
don't pin it on me.
744
00:27:17,266 --> 00:27:19,100
[all laughing]
745
00:27:19,100 --> 00:27:23,800
[Michael] Will it bejalapen-no or jalapen-yes?
746
00:27:26,266 --> 00:27:27,533
Yeah, I like it
with the pepper.
747
00:27:27,533 --> 00:27:28,900
-It gives it some texture...
-[Carmen] It does.
748
00:27:28,900 --> 00:27:30,867
...and it breaks up
the sweetness just a touch.
749
00:27:30,867 --> 00:27:33,266
But it's nice, you get
a nice maple flavor,
750
00:27:33,266 --> 00:27:35,734
then you taste the pork,
you get a little bit of
saltiness from the bacon.
751
00:27:35,734 --> 00:27:38,100
Aesthetically it's
a nice garnish.
752
00:27:38,100 --> 00:27:40,100
I mean, are the judges weird
with the spice like that?
753
00:27:40,100 --> 00:27:41,100
-No, I think it's okay...
-No.
754
00:27:41,100 --> 00:27:42,367
...and especially in
a category like this.
755
00:27:42,367 --> 00:27:44,100
-Is it good or not?
-[Michael] You know,
I think it's good.
756
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:46,467
You know, what we looked for
when we were analyzing this
757
00:27:46,467 --> 00:27:48,266
-is what do we not like
about it, right?
-Right.
758
00:27:48,266 --> 00:27:49,533
So we're trying to
pull the knots out.
759
00:27:49,533 --> 00:27:50,900
-[Carmen] Right.
-Where, like, if you say,
760
00:27:50,900 --> 00:27:54,100
"Eh, it's a little sweet."
So it's leaning towards that.
761
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:55,800
If they're gonna ding you,
why are they gonna ding you?
762
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:56,249
-Right.
-And it might be because,
763
00:27:56,249 --> 00:27:57,166
-Right.
-And it might be because,
764
00:27:57,166 --> 00:27:59,367
eh, it was on
the sweet side for sausage,
I wasn't expecting that.
765
00:27:59,367 --> 00:28:00,734
We're gonna send it
and see what happens.
766
00:28:00,734 --> 00:28:02,066
[all laughing]
767
00:28:03,634 --> 00:28:05,100
Whoo, look at them babies!
768
00:28:05,100 --> 00:28:07,367
Yeah, they're looking good,
I like the color.
769
00:28:07,367 --> 00:28:09,734
They're looking juicy,
ready to eat!
770
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,333
We're going in,
we're going in.
771
00:28:13,467 --> 00:28:15,266
All right, here's
the bacon explosion,
772
00:28:15,266 --> 00:28:17,600
cheesy jalapeno style.
773
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,000
We've got three minutes
before we're on the clock.
774
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,433
[Megan] There should be cheese
and the bacon in the center.
775
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,100
It's looking good.
776
00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:30,100
Final turn-ins
are happening right now.
777
00:28:30,100 --> 00:28:32,600
This is the sixthmeat turn-in of the day,
778
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,166
and the teams are hopingsausage is what puts themover the top.
779
00:28:36,700 --> 00:28:38,166
That's delicious.
780
00:28:38,166 --> 00:28:42,100
[Pops] We made a jalapenomustard relish to put on top.
781
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:43,867
It really came out great.
782
00:28:43,867 --> 00:28:45,066
Yes, sir. I'm on the way, sir.
783
00:28:46,166 --> 00:28:47,734
[Carmen] I love
the sausage entry.
784
00:28:47,734 --> 00:28:49,800
I'm super stoked
to see how it did.
785
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,433
Last turn-in. Yay.
786
00:28:52,100 --> 00:28:54,000
Thank you, guys.
787
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,734
It was a nice bite.
We got a dog in the hunt.
788
00:28:57,266 --> 00:28:58,533
[Jason] It's viral.
789
00:28:58,533 --> 00:29:00,066
-Oh, that's viral all right.
-[Jason] Viral spiral.
790
00:29:00,066 --> 00:29:01,634
-[Megan] That's viral spiral.
-[Jason laughs]
791
00:29:01,634 --> 00:29:03,467
If I was a judgeon that sausage,
792
00:29:03,467 --> 00:29:04,634
it would be a perfect score.
793
00:29:04,634 --> 00:29:05,867
-[Megan] Yeah.- [Jason] Nines acrossthe board,
794
00:29:05,867 --> 00:29:07,166

795
00:29:08,367 --> 00:29:09,634
All right, last one.
796
00:29:10,266 --> 00:29:11,367
All right.
797
00:29:11,367 --> 00:29:13,533
-That's it, boom!
-[Megan laughs]
798
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,367
Tired.
799
00:29:15,367 --> 00:29:16,900
-All right.
-[Megan] That was terrible.
800
00:29:16,900 --> 00:29:20,100
[Michael] After 11 hard hoursof smoking, prepping,
801
00:29:20,100 --> 00:29:23,467

-[Megan] Two, three weeks.
-...when we went to
833
00:30:30,266 --> 00:30:31,734
-his first barbecue contest.
-Yeah.
834
00:30:31,734 --> 00:30:35,440
And when Meredith came along,she just wasalong for the ride.
835
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:35,500
And when Meredith came along,she just wasalong for the ride.
836
00:30:35,500 --> 00:30:37,266
[Megan] Remember, we don't
want to overwork the meat.
837
00:30:37,266 --> 00:30:38,500
Listen to mom.
838
00:30:38,500 --> 00:30:40,734
-[Megan] That's right.
-[Michael] That's very
important.
839
00:30:40,734 --> 00:30:43,367
Got your burger press there?
Got you on the scale?
840
00:30:43,367 --> 00:30:45,266
I mean, it's a tight ship
over here.
841
00:30:45,266 --> 00:30:47,533
Using a burger pressinstead of your hands
842
00:30:47,533 --> 00:30:49,867
keeps the meat chilleduntil you're ready to cook
843
00:30:49,867 --> 00:30:51,867
and ensures thatall your paddies
844
00:30:51,867 --> 00:30:53,266
are the same size.
845
00:30:53,266 --> 00:30:54,367
Consistency's the key,
846
00:30:54,367 --> 00:30:56,367
whether you're young,
old, it doesn't matter.
847
00:30:56,367 --> 00:30:58,734
So weighing things out,
making sure it's consistent's
848
00:30:58,734 --> 00:31:00,734
gonna make sureall the burgers cook the same.
849
00:31:02,100 --> 00:31:04,533
Hoping to capturethe crown again this year,
850
00:31:04,533 --> 00:31:05,440
LC Barbecue's Reid
851
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:06,266
LC Barbecue's Reid
852
00:31:06,266 --> 00:31:08,166
is taking a pagefrom his mom's book
853
00:31:08,166 --> 00:31:10,000
and adding a twist of his own.
854
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,634
Gotta add a little pork to it.
855
00:31:12,266 --> 00:31:13,867
This year I'm making
pork bombs,
856
00:31:13,867 --> 00:31:14,900
and I hope I win.
857
00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:17,867
Ah, come on.
858
00:31:17,867 --> 00:31:21,800
You put the onionsand poblanos in there,and then cheese.
859
00:31:22,867 --> 00:31:24,600
Wrap them in bacon.
860
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,367
One down, seven more to go.
861
00:31:26,367 --> 00:31:27,634
And then you cook them.
862
00:31:27,634 --> 00:31:29,634
What time are you gonna
try to get the burgers on?
863
00:31:30,467 --> 00:31:32,367
-3:10?
-3:13 maybe.
864
00:31:32,367 --> 00:31:34,967
-3:13?
-[laughs]
865
00:31:34,967 --> 00:31:35,440
Okay.
866
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:36,066
Okay.
867
00:31:36,066 --> 00:31:38,066
You were not being
specific enough, mom.
868
00:31:38,066 --> 00:31:39,600
-[Carmen] Yeah.
-3:13's the number.
869
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,634
[announcer] All right,
hamburger cook offs, let's go!
870
00:31:42,634 --> 00:31:45,367
[Michael] The parents heremay be top-of-the-linepit masters,
871
00:31:45,367 --> 00:31:48,500
but at this contest,they are strictly assistants.
872
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:50,266
You're on it, bubba,
they're looking great.
873
00:31:50,266 --> 00:31:52,867
Just a million different
flavors going on.
874
00:31:52,867 --> 00:31:54,100
They're not limited to,
875
00:31:54,100 --> 00:31:55,867
"I wonder what the judgesare liking."
876
00:31:55,867 --> 00:31:58,066
They're just makingwhat they want to eat.
877
00:31:58,066 --> 00:32:00,333
That's what food is all about.
878
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,100
That's perfectly
melted cheese.
879
00:32:04,100 --> 00:32:05,440
Hank and Meredith
are competitive
in different ways.
880
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:06,500
Hank and Meredith
are competitive
in different ways.
881
00:32:06,500 --> 00:32:08,967
And they're both gonna do
kind of a similar version...
882
00:32:08,967 --> 00:32:10,600
-Yeah.
-...of a bacon cheeseburger,
883
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:11,734
but they each havea little twist.
884
00:32:11,734 --> 00:32:14,500
[Meredith] On my bun,I put my special ingredient,
885
00:32:14,500 --> 00:32:16,533
agave.
886
00:32:16,533 --> 00:32:22,166
I'm gonna have lettuce,
candied bacon,
and tomatoes.
887
00:32:22,166 --> 00:32:24,800
[Meredith] I decidedlast minute to add mayo.
888
00:32:26,500 --> 00:32:29,533
-Did you just make
your burger smile?
-Yeah!
889
00:32:30,734 --> 00:32:34,066
Meredith is so sassy,
and Hank is so serious,
890
00:32:34,066 --> 00:32:35,440
and it isjust their personalities
891
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:36,867
and it isjust their personalities
892
00:32:36,867 --> 00:32:38,266
in a box for a judge.
893
00:32:38,266 --> 00:32:42,000
[Hank] I garnished my boxwith chocolate chip cookies,
894
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,734
because I want to win.
895
00:32:44,734 --> 00:32:47,867
[Meredith] I garnishedmy burger withrainbow Goldfish.
896
00:32:47,867 --> 00:32:49,266
That is beautiful!
897
00:32:49,266 --> 00:32:51,367
I think I did pretty good.
898
00:32:51,367 --> 00:32:55,066
I think overall,
I think I did better
than her.
899
00:32:55,066 --> 00:32:57,166
[Michael] Looks likethey might need me to settle
900
00:32:57,166 --> 00:32:59,000
this sibling burger rivalry.
901
00:32:59,367 --> 00:33:01,100
Oh, that looks good!
902
00:33:01,100 --> 00:33:04,533
-That looks juicy!
-Lot of tomatoes, looks juicy.
903
00:33:06,867 --> 00:33:08,433
[Megan] Oh,
look at the juice drip!
904
00:33:09,467 --> 00:33:11,166
Wow, that's delicious.
905
00:33:12,367 --> 00:33:14,367
I think you should feel
pretty good about this.
906
00:33:16,166 --> 00:33:17,900
[all laughing]
907
00:33:18,867 --> 00:33:20,066
[Michael] Let's see
what you got.
908
00:33:21,266 --> 00:33:23,734
Oh, look at that.
A good layer
of the mayonnaise.
909
00:33:23,734 --> 00:33:26,166
Got the candied bacon
hanging off the side.
910
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:31,734
That is delicious.
911
00:33:31,734 --> 00:33:34,166
Your mom and dad
did a good job with you guys.
912
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:35,440
I declare it a tie.
913
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,266
I declare it a tie.
914
00:33:36,266 --> 00:33:38,166
Can't pick a winner between
these two, but,
915
00:33:38,166 --> 00:33:42,066
I can tell you that those
were two delicious hamburgers.
916
00:33:42,066 --> 00:33:44,000
And Goldfish
and chocolate chip cookies,
917
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,166
what else do you need in life?
918
00:33:46,166 --> 00:33:48,367
-[announcer] Turn inbegins now.
-[man] Ah.
919
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,533
Burger tournaments
are under way.
920
00:33:51,533 --> 00:33:55,266
The kids, they havea ten minute windowto get their food turned in.
921
00:33:55,266 --> 00:33:58,367
-The kids did exactly
what they laid out to do.
-So awesome.
922
00:33:58,367 --> 00:33:59,600
[Jason] We'll seewhat the judges thought,
923
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:00,634
but they... they're winners.
924
00:34:00,634 --> 00:34:03,367
[Michael] Good job, guys.
925
00:34:03,367 --> 00:34:05,440
As the minutes tick by,it looks likeReid is cutting it close.
926
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,166
As the minutes tick by,it looks likeReid is cutting it close.
927
00:34:07,166 --> 00:34:08,800
[Phil B] You got
three minutes, go!
928
00:34:09,367 --> 00:34:10,367
[Carmen] Okay, that's good.
929
00:34:12,066 --> 00:34:14,467
-Bud, you gotta speed
it up, okay?
-[Reid] Okay.
930
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:17,266
[Carmen] Come on! Hurry.
931
00:34:17,266 --> 00:34:19,734
[announcer] Two minutes!Under two.
932
00:34:19,734 --> 00:34:21,066
All right,
under two minutes left.
933
00:34:21,066 --> 00:34:24,734
-Ooh, Mom. We don't have
time for a picture.
-Okay.
934
00:34:24,734 --> 00:34:27,166
[Michael] Look atthe hustle! Boy.
935
00:34:27,166 --> 00:34:29,100
They're even strict with
the turn ins with the kids.
936
00:34:29,100 --> 00:34:30,266
They don't mess around here.
937
00:34:30,266 --> 00:34:32,100
[onlookers cheering]
938
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,166
[Carmen] There he goes!
939
00:34:34,166 --> 00:34:35,440
[Reid] Sorry we took so long.
940
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:35,734
[Reid] Sorry we took so long.
941
00:34:35,734 --> 00:34:38,634
Reid with the million dollar
smile coming in!
942
00:34:38,634 --> 00:34:41,166
Last one, last one. All right!
943
00:34:42,100 --> 00:34:43,600
Just in time!
944
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,000
-Thank you!
-Whoo!
945
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,533
[Michael] It wasa photo finish,but all the burgers
946
00:34:47,533 --> 00:34:49,000
have crossed the finish line.
947
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:52,634
Now it's up to the judgesto decidewho's the big winner today.
948
00:34:52,634 --> 00:34:55,634
I know I tasted someamazing barbecue today,
949
00:34:55,634 --> 00:35:00,266
deserving of a chunkof that $85,000in prize money,
950
00:35:00,266 --> 00:35:03,734
but it's always a crapshoot
when you have this many teams.
951
00:35:03,734 --> 00:35:05,440
So, let's see where
the fat falls.
952
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:06,066
So, let's see where
the fat falls.
953
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,000
[Michael] After a grueling dayof smoked meats,
954
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,367
it's time to find outhow the American Royal judges
955
00:35:14,367 --> 00:35:18,800
will dish out over $85,000in prize money.
956
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,367
[on mic] The suspenseis killing,so let's get into it.
957
00:35:21,367 --> 00:35:23,800
Our goal is to get
on that stage
any way, shape, or form.
958
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,000
-As many times as possible.
-I would love for it
to be a rip call, though.
959
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,000
[Phil B] Eh,it's lottery odds out here.
960
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,166
You have over 500 teams,
961
00:35:29,166 --> 00:35:31,266
so, man, if we hear our name,
we'll be super excited.
962
00:35:31,266 --> 00:35:32,533
[Justin] We wantto hear our name last.
963
00:35:32,533 --> 00:35:35,000
If you hear your name last,
you're the big winner.
964
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,100
Or in the middle.
I'll take the middle any way.
965
00:35:37,100 --> 00:35:38,634
I want to hear our names
called either way.
966
00:35:38,634 --> 00:35:39,148
[announcer] Let's goto the Open Meatscontest awards.
967
00:35:39,148 --> 00:35:41,800
[announcer] Let's goto the Open Meatscontest awards.
968
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,000
[Michael] Each meat categoryhas hundredsof teams competing,
969
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,800
but only the top 25get to heartheir names called.
970
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,066
[announcer] My friends,it's timefor the Turkey Smoke.
971
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,700
[Jason] Let's see if they liketurkey Reubens.
972
00:35:53,700 --> 00:35:54,734
They thought they were burnt.
973
00:35:54,734 --> 00:35:59,166
-At 19, team Brew 'N' Que.
-Whoo!
974
00:35:59,166 --> 00:36:01,700
I want to place, yes.
Who doesn't want to place?
975
00:36:01,700 --> 00:36:03,000
But we'll see.
976
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,734
It's not gonna be something
that I'm gonna
beat myself up over,
977
00:36:05,734 --> 00:36:09,100
because this is what you getwhen you playwith the big boys.
978
00:36:09,100 --> 00:36:09,148
[laughing] Yeah.
979
00:36:09,148 --> 00:36:10,433
[laughing] Yeah.
980
00:36:10,734 --> 00:36:12,233
At four...
981
00:36:13,266 --> 00:36:15,100
...LC BBQ!
982
00:36:15,100 --> 00:36:17,100
[screaming happily]
983
00:36:17,100 --> 00:36:19,600
[Carmen] They probablyheard us a mile away.
984
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,800
LC at four with turkey,
which is great.
985
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,734
He just didthis great smoked turkey.
986
00:36:24,734 --> 00:36:27,266
Put it down on the box.
That says a lot.
987
00:36:27,266 --> 00:36:29,166
That says how good
the turkey actually was.
988
00:36:29,166 --> 00:36:30,734
[Phil B] You know, you come
to the American Royal,
989
00:36:30,734 --> 00:36:34,000
all you hope is throughout
the weekend you get
to hear your name called.
990
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,467
So, you know,when they called 4th Turkey,
991
00:36:36,467 --> 00:36:38,734
it kind of felt like,"Hey, mission accomplished."
992
00:36:38,734 --> 00:36:39,148
[announcer] And at bronze...
993
00:36:39,148 --> 00:36:41,166
[announcer] And at bronze...
994
00:36:41,166 --> 00:36:44,634
If the chimichangas
aren't in the top three,
I'm gonna be shocked.
995
00:36:44,634 --> 00:36:45,800
I'm just saying.
996
00:36:46,367 --> 00:36:48,233
...Breggy Bomb BBQ!
997
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,734
[Pops] The turkey chimichangaswere very good,
998
00:36:51,734 --> 00:36:55,166
but every time we say,
"Hey, this is outstanding,
this is great,"
999
00:36:55,166 --> 00:36:56,433
the judges don't like it.
1000
00:36:58,166 --> 00:37:00,367
I'm just kind

00:37:54,734 --> 00:37:57,467
Don't drop the tong.
1029
00:37:57,467 --> 00:38:02,533
[Michael] As the top 25 teamsare read out in brisket,pork, chicken, and sausage...
1030
00:38:02,533 --> 00:38:04,634
The Shed BBQ!
1031
00:38:04,634 --> 00:38:06,900

despite turning insome amazing entries.
1034
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,266
But with over500 teams competing,
1035
00:38:13,266 --> 00:38:15,266
that doesn't meanthey can't land a call
1036
00:38:15,266 --> 00:38:18,533
when they announcethe overall winnersin the meat contest.
1037

1045
00:38:36,367 --> 00:38:38,734
which is, to us,

1046
00:38:38,734 --> 00:38:39,148
