Larry on our team handles Porkpourri, so I'll let him know. It doesn't hurt that there was also some bourbon mixed into that pie. I could be wrong, but I think that 2nd place this year might've been a bacon pecan pie.

I love desserts. But I'm glad a non-dessert entry won porkpourri this year. Adding bacon to a dessert seems too simple to me.
I won't ever turn down a piece of that pie though.

They should just have a dessert category. There wasn't the Martins bread category this year, so it could've replaced that.

If I remember correctly they used pork fat in the dough too. I agree that a dessert category would probably be a nice addition (or a savory and sweet distinction within porkpourri).

Yes, bacon fat instead of butter to form the crust.

I could say to add a drink category as well, but that might require adding another thread to discuss.

Mayo category replaced it

We had a mayo category last year.
Posted on 4/4/17 at 12:48 pm to Crawfish From Arabi
Forgot about that. For some reason I thought Mayo was a best bite and not a side.
Posted on 4/4/17 at 12:59 pm to TigerWise
I think it was called a side category last year, and the potato rolls were a best bite or one bite challenge. There was also the camellia beans category too last year.

They had a smoked hummus that was pretty good. No pork in it, but I liked seeing that out there.

Rene has been emailing them out to each team. Everyone that I spoke to said that they'd still like to see the scoring breakdown, but Hogs has never provided that to teams.
Posted on 4/4/17 at 6:52 pm to Crawfish From Arabi
Is that customary for smoke offs that don't judge blind?
Posted on 4/4/17 at 6:55 pm to BRgetthenet
Every one that I cook in (BCA, KCBS, and MBN) all provide a breakdown of scoring. Hogs is blind like all the other ones. From what I understand, it's the same basic scoring system that MBN and MIM uses without the on site judging for category finals.
