We Even Impressed the Judges!

Tropic-Al had a full house at Saturdays' rubs and sauces class held at Adams Fairacre Farms in Poughkeepsie, NY! For nearly two hours the crowd was held spellbound as Tropic-Al some how managed to make a huge mess on two eight foot long tables mixng up ingredients in what turned out to be delicious examples of what anyone can do with a spoon a spatula and fire.

After the smoke cleared and the room aired out a few brave soles found their way to the front of the room and actually sampled some of the fare. They informed Tropic-Al that their life insurance was paid up and not to worry.

Along with the venturous taste testers was a husband and wife KCBS judging team. After giving the table the once over and trying to repair the incredible amount of damage done to the BBQ community in one afternoon they immediately sentenced Tropic-Al to life..............as is.

Even though the team found the damage caused to the BBQ community irreparable they thought it best to leave Tropic-Al as they found him: strange, wierd and as he seems to never be able to let go of the urge to play with fire and food the team thought it best that he stay on his island and continue playing with fire and food.

Very wise decision of the judges it turns out. You see since they sentenced Tropic-Al "to life as is" at least he stays on his island and will always be near water when playing with fire and food!

We could use some KCBS logic like that in Washington DC!
