Ribs Within was named MABA (Mid Atlantic BBQ Association) 2011 Team of the Year in Chicken, in spite of a season shortened by multiple issues. This is the first time we have won an official TOY in any category – we were the MABA unofficial TOY overall in 2006. This is a case of practice [...]

Ribs Within continued its winning ways with the new chicken, as we took 3rd Place in Chicken out of 39 teams. We thought the chicken was a little over salty, and that cost us a few points, but it was beautiful and cooked to perfection, so that helped.
The 3rd place was 4th top 3 finish [...]
We finally did it! We won 1st place Chicken in the Roc City Ribfest, Rochester, NY. The past 3 weeks we have finished 3rd (of 54), 2nd (of 32) and now 1st (of 83) in Chicken. The ribs have been OK. The pork has been OK, and the brisket has been OK. But the chicken, [...]
Two weeks after a wet performance in Salisbury, MD in April (36 out of 114, 20th in Brisket), cooking in between periods of no wind and 35-40MPH swirling winds and rain, Ribs Within Took to the road every weekend in May hoping for nicer weather.

Now that the 2010 KCBS BBQ season is over for us, I reflect on the season that was, that wasn’t and that almost was.
If I would have to label the season, I would have to say “Consistently Inconsistent”.
This season was a season of change, and it really showed. In reality, different rubs, different sauces, [...]

Well it has certainly taken a while, but we finally had a complete, good cook this past weekend. All four products – chicken (7th place), ribs (10th), pork (11th) and brisket (3rd) – were tasty and well cooked. I thought the pork was the best we have cooked in years, maybe ever, but the 153 [...]

Co-supported by Viking, Yale offered [...]
