Full Fledged Farker
I was contacted over the weekend by Cabelas in Hoffman Estates, IL. I helped Rub of Swamp Boys BBQ organize a class at this location. They were so amazed at the attraction it brought and the people inquiring about what was going on that they now have great interest in getting into the competition BBQ world. The event planner called me and asked if I could see if anyone had interest in a backyard competition of Ribs and Chicken that ties into their outdoor days. The weekend is August 17th and 18th, but there is no guarantee of which day, just trying to get interest feedback and they will select a day. There will be gift cards to Cabelas as prizes plus a trophy. If this goes well, the event planner told me they would push for a full sanctioned KCBS event next year. Similar to KCBS, no electric cooker requirement, but pellet cookers and power draft would be allowed. Power will not be supplied as of yet. I do not work for Cabelas at all, she just called me because she didn't know where else to start to inquire about interest. If this does go well, it would be nice to know that there could be another possible KCBS santioned event that could spread to other Cabelas.
