Harvard Fall Festival - Brief Recap

I'll post a full recap later, but here it is in a nutshell...

Chicken - Sucked. I need to come up with a completely new plan for this. 31/40

Ribs - Not bad. Need to work on appearance a bit, but I was pretty happy with them. 14/40

Pork - Turned out really well, but again need to work on appearance. Got my only call in this category. 5/40

Brisket - Again, not bad. I know what I did wrong, so that's half the battle. 23/40

Overall - A fairly successful contest, especially given that the competition was even stiffer than at Maine. I solved some issues from Maine but a couple new ones popped up. I don't care what anyone says...not being able to use parsley definitely affected my scores at this contest. I'm sure the bigger, more experienced teams and the ones who don't use parsley didn't have an issue with it. It was a big deal for me. 16/40

More later...
