Judging: Ray “Dr. BBQ” Lampe will judge the entries, which will be blinded. A bonus point will be given to those who think “outside the oven.” Entries will be judged on the overall impression of the turkey, including appearance and tenderness. Remember! Since there is no “taste” category, make sure the judge can see how good it is!
