Happy St Patrick’s Day. I was asked at work if I could do a meal for St Patrick’s Day at work, of course I said yes. I seasoned up 2 whole corned beef briskets with brisket rub, fired up my drums with some threw in a few pieces of hickory and pecan. Let them smoke for a few hours before braising them in some Guinness and beef broth. Then topped everything off with some cabbage, potato’s and carrots!

It's been too long since we've done some BBQ, so we decided to throw some hams on the smoker. Our first attempt was decent, but a bit too salty. Luckily, my work asked me to make an employee meal, giving us a chance to try again. We switched to Fricks hams with less sodium and added a cherry apple glaze that turned out amazing!

Here’s to a turkey with the perfect smoke ring, sides that might be competition-ready (and if they’re not… who cares!). We hope you’re surrounded by good food, good friends, and even better memories.
From the Mad Mule crew, Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃

Just because competition season is over doesn’t mean we’re slowing down! Fired up the Hunsaker last weekend to test and refine our chicken profiles for next season.

Had a great time at the Fullerton Fall Festival! We’ve loved coming to this event for the past three years and it’s always fun to see how it evolves each year. No matter what, it’s always an eventful competition.

This year we were excited to take home 2nd place in ribs and pork butt 🏆🔥

A big congrats to our friends Easy Bake BBQ for taking home 1st place in People’s Choice on your home turf.

We traveled to Howells this last Saturday for their last BBQ and Brew. Couldn’t have asked for a better day. Another loaded competition with 16 teams. It was a busy day with preparing ribs, beans and our cheesecake for people’s choice. We took the outhouse out for its first competition to see how it would run, needs some fine tuning but we will figure it out. In all we had a great day. Congrats to all the winners!!!

Ribs- 5th
Beans- 1st
People’s Choice- 2nd
