I have to agree with Lake Dogs.
I figured our first competiton (which was a backyard event) was going to cost about 300.00.
It ended up closer to 700 or 800
The reason?
it was my first comp. so I (wisely) spent several weeks prior to the comp. practicing with comp. quality meats.
So not only do I have to buy meat for the comp. I had to buy fuel (charcoal, wood, etc) & meat for the practice cooks
of course you also have your rubs..spices are not cheap.
and then there is the beer.....
