Aside from Grill Kings on LI on 7/15-16, I originally thought about Hudson Valley Ribfest, since it's close but heard half good/half bad reviews of that one. New Holland, PA is the following week and that one seems to get better reviews and it fits our schedule better. It's not 100% yet, but New Holland looks like what we are shooting for and should know for sure in the next week or two.
I wanted Harpoon but am not prepared to do back to back contests yet especially since Grill Kings will be our first the week prior. Guitarbeque is the week prior to Grill Kings, so for the same reason, I had to exclude that one. I'd still like to go to Harpoon for the day and hang out.
I see the Bikes, Bands BBQ cotest in listed as 6/25... that might have been an option but that also seems like the potential weekend for the Mega Bash at Phil's place, which I don't want to miss.
