“We are back from a great 3 days out in Concan! Got to catch up on some sleep, and some great quality time with my wife and J3!!!! But we still snuck in some BBQ, it’s one of our favorite cookoffs, and I’m glad we were able to do it!” Flores expressed. Despite the light-duty cooking, the team managed to excel, turning in impressive performances across several categories.
