Congrats to BBG & Munchin' Hogs. Well done Harry for a close third - our other California teams did a great job of representing as well. Most of all, thanks to Sterling and all involved for thinking out of the box to create a unique experience for the teams and especially the spectators. This event was over the top in every category. The opportunity to spend time with top teams in the nation and hear them speak openly about their BBQ techniques with the attendees was priceless. Big Mista and Simply Marvelous served up some great BBQ to the crowd. The venue was spectacular as well. La Quinta is a top notch resort and the concept of each team having their own casita with their pits just steps away made the event feel very intimate. The musicians were the best of any event I have attended. I'm sure folks who were more involved will fill us in on all of the other extras. Thanks again Big Poppa! Looking forward to next year!

I talked to almost every team their and the only complaint I heard was that they actually had to go home afterwards. Superior event in every way. We were waited on hand and foot by the Big Poppa crew and the La Quinta resort staff. Well played Sterling. Well played.

I just made it home and all I can say is wow! I am tired and my right ankle is the size of a baseball, but who cares. I am proud to have been a small part of this great event.
I don't always vend, but, if and when I do again, it will be for KOS only!

Had the best time vending at KOS! BPS staff were more than generous with their help. La Quinta Resort was awesome, and it was an honor to cook in the same place as the competitors. All the spectators were so nice, and I had a BLAST!! Congratulations to everyone!

For 15 dollars patrons got the very best food.....in the best location not on the water in December, got free classes from the likes of Trigg, Stone, Gray Hixon,Soo, Groneman, Johns, Nelson, and the eventual GC Lilly...oh yeah we raised $167,000.00 for pediatric kidney disease. I think that is more raised that the next 50 contests. spend a few minutes and look up the facebook pages of the teams that were there...I didnt talk about the teams. Do you know who I invited and turned it down? Was the cup half empty or half full at the King Of the Smoker? Sorry for the rant but most people would have given up with the internet sniping.

How about taking a look at who did get invited then take a look at their Facebook page..there isn't a team out there that has cooked a better event..Sterling went over the top and the last thing he should have to do is come on here and defend it..but I will!..how about you pick up the phone and call all of these great teams and have them come out to your comp,put them up in a beautiful resort,pay for all of their meals,comp meat,bar tab..ect ect..let me know how that all works out for you..hell take these 24 teams throw them out pick another 24 and you'll have a whole other group crying about who didn't get invited..can't please everyone everytime..but Sterling pleased everyone that was there and then some!..I'm glad we got the invite and it was a great time cooking against all of those great teams!..again I can't say this enough..THANK YOU STERLING!!

Everything about this event was first class. Sterling kicked it up a big notch. The teams that competed had everything they need to focus on the competition, and not worry about a thing. Sterling’s team was there to support. He had almost a 1-1 volunteer team ratio.
No matter who was invited someone would be left off the list, but it’s an invitational. Sterling defined the rules, and invited the teams. In his mind these were the best of the best. At the end of the day it was an EPIC contest brining some of the best cooks from around the country to this event, cooking the same meat, and seeing who the best was on that day. Congrats Chris Lilly… But most important we raised 167K for a great charity.
