UPDATE!
I would like to first off thank Captain Earl Williams for coming down from the mountains to help me with this competition. We had over 20 bags of stuff from groceries, coolers, gas burners, and even three crock pots! It took us over an hour to set up and we only had 90 minutes to cook up our dish.
