The FBA Funcook is held this year on Labor Day weekend in Lake Wales, FL.

My name is Jimmy Brod and I am on the Board of Directors for the FBA and also one of the organizers for the Fun Cook at Camp Mack.

The Funcook is an introduction to the FBA for new BBQ cooks and a Social event for seasoned FBA cooks.

The FBA has its annual meeting every year in conjunction with a Funcook designed to introduce people to the fun of competition BBQ and the benefits of The Florida BBQ Association to all BBQ enthusiast.

You do not have to be a member to participate however I urge you to join via our web site.
The membership is $35.00 a year and includes a subscription to the National BBQ News.

A cook team consists of a head cook and as many helpers he or she wishes to have.

Prizes in each category will be awarded but you must enter all four categories to be eligible for grand or reserve grand prize overall. For example to enter all four categories the cost would be $100.00.

Reservations for a campsite are separate and should be made with the nice people at Camp Mack http://www.campmack.com/

The meat gets turned into the judges on Sunday (Chicken 11:00, Pork Ribs 12:00, Pork 1:00, Brisket 2:00)

AMEN--a really tough crowd!

Actually, we would love to come mix it up.
But, we have a really full fall schedule and the $$ are just not there.

Gonna be fun though.
I have heard some tales of what happens when it becomes "fun' in the FBA.
