Default Chicagoland Swamp Boys BBQ Class at Cabelas

We have some great news for all of you interested in the Swamps boys class in Chicago. We have a lock on March 29-30, 2013 (Friday & Saturday). The next part of the great news...it is at CABELAS in Hoffman Estates, IL!!!! The class is a cost of $500. This is a one chance opportunity to not have to spend $1,000's (because you know your spouse wouldn't let you go without her ) to fly down to Flordia to take this class.
Also, Rob has agreed to donate one ticket to the class valued at $500. The tickets will be sold for $25 each. The proceeds will go to support Illinois BBQ Alliance, a sister to Operation BBQ Relief. If you buy a seat to the class and decide to buy a raffle ticket, if you happen to win, the total of the class will be immediately refunded in full. I am currently working on getting a block of hotels for those coming in from out of town. I just need a rough idea of how many might be looking for a hotel. Please PM me if you have any interest.

I apologize to everyone before that express interest about the class. My computer crashed and I lost the contact email list I had. If you did not receive a PM, please let me know.

We just got approval from Cabelas, so the official flyer will be finalized shortly...legal dept. stuff. If you go to swamp boys bbq website, he has older flyers that have information on the same format class. Once Rob has that finalized, sales will be through him. I will try to get you that information by today or tomorrow.

I just got word from Rob that there will be a second ticket to the class that has been donated and will be raffled off. The proceeds of the second ticket will go to support local Scottie Johnson's charity organization, Cancer Sucks Chicago. Below is information from Sweet Baby Ray about Illinois BBQ Alliance.

Swamp Boys won ANOTHER GC this weekend. Swamp Boys has now won 7 GCs and 5 RGCs this year. Swamp Boys ranked 11th in the National BBQ Rankings and likely to move up after this weekend. Raffle tickets to this class are still available for purchase for a chance to win a seat to his class as well as the actual purchased seats.

OK another GC this weekend at the Triple Crown Championship. In my last 7 contests I have won four GCs, two RGCs, and one 3rd overall. Four contests and 3 GCs and 1 RGC since this thread was started.

Big question: What are you waiting for?

for me it should be automatic to take this. I have taken classes the last couple years but none who cooked on cookers similar to what I compete with . Rub has done well with Stumps when he was using them.
