If you cook with a stickburner at high temps them maybe a class taught by Mike Davis or Myron Mixon would be better for you. In addition some classes give you a look into the complete cooking process (rubs, injections and everything else). Some will only give you help on techniques - but they won't give you specific help on flavors etc.

So, what do you need/expect to learn?

We've had a long time stick burner get their first GC just one contest after taking the class in Tulsa.

He was the only person prior to the class that I gave a guarantee to. Good techniques are good techniques, no matter what you cook on.

Just saying.

Rod does a great job in his solo class IME.

Rick Hamilton · 08-01-2010, 08:00 AM

I fully recommend Mike Davis's class. Fantastic and great teacher.

Konrad Haskin's class is very good also. He was my first class years ago (Konrad, it was Sacramento and Arnold Schwarzenegger showed up) and I still use some of his what I learned in that class.

My biggest recommendation is try do a class that lets you get your hands dirty. Taking notes is great but nothing beats actually doing.

I cook on a stick burner currently and took the Jack's Old South class last summer? Had never been in the top half of a comp in about 10 tries. Now we are in the top 100 in ribs and chicken on the Toty standings and top 250 or so overall. A good class is well worth the money? Looking to do more vending than competing next year and may purchase a fec 100, so I am looking at taking a class geared to that smoker. Will probably do Plowboy or Pellet Envy. A good class will pay off quickly if you pay attention while you are there!

sitnfat · 09-08-2010, 08:08 AM

since your gonna do more vending than competing can you go ahead and tell me how to do chicken.. I mean you killed me on chicken Saturday

I understand David has had to drop out of this class
Todd will be there at $250 per student
There is a winning investment

Placing ONE time will get your money back

AZScott · 10-11-2010, 11:55 PM

I'm signed up and ready to go in AZ. I can't wait for this opportunity.

Its not that I had to drop out, due to economics and lack of sigh ups, it wasn't possible for 2 of us to fly out there with the cencus count. Another words there wansn't enough interest to warrant the cost of both of us going out. Todd is still headed out to run a full class and teach his winning ways.

I am really sorry to hear this.

I have been looking for info on Mike Davis's class since he is so close to me. Would love to do a Plowboys/butcher class, but it will have to be closer.

Butcher, you need to do a class at your place in November since you will not be making the trip to MI. I know of one person who would be there.

Thanks,

Fred
