I took a class in 2004, Dr. BBQ's, and it was great.. Took Rod and Johnny's in 2007 and it was also great. Ever since then, I've been trying to figure out how to try to be a step ahead of all the 100's of people who've taken all the newer classes. Ain't easy. Remember, if you take a class, and you go to a contest, I'd say an easy third there have taken classes too. Therefore, you're kind of back to square one. Whatever you learn in a class, you have to first make it work for you, at least parts of it, then you have to try to figure out what it takes to beat it. It ain't a cure-all to just take a class and expect to get calls.. Oh, then there's luck too.
