Attended last year?

CHANGES FOR 2009

1) The awards ceremony is being moved up as early as possible. Our tentative time (if Linda can get the results in and printed in time) is 4:00 pm. If we can get it done even earlier, we will. We will NOT be having the awards at 5:00 like last year.
A) The awards ceremony will be considerably more succinct than last year.

2) We will have staff on hand whose only job will be to answer teams questions and offer assistance. We are shooting at a ratio of one staff member per ten teams.

3) There will be event staff on hand and easily accessible 24 hours a day.

(thanks to Brandon and others for their feedback)

Hi,

If you attended the Battle of the BBQ Brethren last year or the previous year we would like to hear your suggestions on how we can make 2009 the best year yet.

We are looking for input from competitors, judges and attendees.

Please shoot me an email at saberinc at verizon dot net

Thanks!

Eric

Best Lot Prize

I'm not sure what the specific nomenclature is, but the team with the best lot/space/area at the Battle of the BBQ Brethren will receive a 22" weber kettle and a custom grate from Huntingdon County Customs.

Taste, texture and appearance will not be the criteria. Well, ok... maybe appearance. And friendliness.

More prize announcements next week.

Thank You to Eric and all else involved will be there vending along with competing. Look forward to bringing bbq to the public at the event.
 
No Jack means I'm back! Perhaps Mr. Bobo will bring my 22" WSM or do I have to wait another year? :)

If any Brethren are interested in helping me try to defend my title and/or win back my grilling title, shoot me a PM. Otherwise I'm cooking solo.
 
There might be a team from outside the US joining us.

If anyone has any basic equipment that they can loan another team, please let me know.

Suggestions:

Chairs
Tents
Tables
Beer


Thanks,
