2013 Camp Brisket
January 11-12, 2013
College Station, Texas

We’re trying something new this year in partnership with the Meat Science Section in the Department of Animal Science at Texas A&M University. We will hold a second barbecue camp, Camp Brisket, on January 11-12, 2013. While Barbecue Summer Camp will continue to take a broad approach to barbecue cookery and culture in Texas and beyond, Camp Brisket will specifically focus on that quintessential Texas smoked meat, the humble brisket, covering topics such as the debate over which grades/types of beef to use, types of smokers, wrapping or not wrapping the brisket, and much more. Attendees at both camps will receive direction from professors in the Texas A&M University Department of Animal Science Meat Science Section as well as hear from pitmasters from around the state of Texas regarding some of their basic techniques. We are still working on the program for this first Camp Brisket, so stay tuned for more information.

Tickets go on sale:
Nov 16 – Foodways Texas Members (must be member in good standing by November 2)
Dec 1 – Public

Ticket prices:
$495 – Foodways Texas Members
$550 – Public

*Cost of ticket includes all sessions, talks, and activities as well as lunch and dinner during the event.

Man that's really cool.. I just found out that we have an animal science department here at the University of Georgia, and on Fridays they have a large meat market where they sell fresh meat to the public that they have harvested at the school. I going to go see what all they have.

You know what's funny is that I lived in Texas for 4 years - out in Lubbock. And I never really heard too much about BBQ. I think I've eaten BBQ 3 times in 4 years. When we go out to eat it's usually mexican food, burgers, or chicken fried steak.

They could definitely use a bit more BBQ education out in West Texas.

I lived in Lubbock for about 7 years, and this is true. You really have to get to central Texas before the good BBQ kicks in. They had some really good Mexican food, tho.

$550 to have a bunch of Aggies tell this Texan how to do brisket!? I don't think so. lol
