Found some matches.
Hello everyone. I introduced myself and family in cattle call so I will not bore you here with that.
I am a football booster VP and I would like to start an annual BBQ cook off event to raise money for our team. I could sure use all the advice I can get on how to set up the rules and what laws I need to check on and that sort of thing. How to recruit and train judges so that it is as professional or legit as possible as we want this to grow into an annual event we can be proud of.
Our community had been hosting a civic event every year (Chicken and Egg Festival) but it grew so large that the volunteer staff and small town budget couldn't maintain it. So I know that this area is ripe for such an activity and believe we can build this into a success for the team and the community.
We have loads of local singing talent and would like to have live performances at our BBQ cook offs to entertain our guest as well as provide them a friendly atmosphere as they browse the BBQ contestants and sample the food.
We have some very renown BBQ places in the area (Big Bob Gibsons) and people here love to eat and cook BBQ so I think this is a great way to provide a need in the community. I have eaten at many BBQ places around the country as I use to drive over the road in a big truck but I have never been to a cook off event. I have no experience in what the contestants are use to seeing or what they expect from the cook off officials or event planners. I have no idea what prizes are expected or what would draw more competitors. Rules, regulations, and laws are not totally foreign but not experienced when it comes to competitive cook offs.
Any advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
