There will be butchery demonstrations onsite by the master butcher for J. Kings as well as showings of BBQ related documentaries by the Southern Foodway Alliance.

I'll be following up with some other amenities soon.

There is no Saturday am. Everything will be concluded by Friday evening.

Standard turn in times.

Teams can arrive Thursday if they'd like. Someone will be available for meat inspections Thursday evening.

I love the idea of another local competition, but the Thursday/Friday scheduling is likely a deal breaker for us.

Electric provided?

same here, that's three days off work. wed. finish prep/pack, thursday travel/setup, friday turn ins.

if i was to take three days, i'd go on vaca. somewhere other than L.I.

The weekday, one day, full KCBS kills it for us. It would be managable if it was a Friday/Saturday contest. It's a shame because my brother and teammate lives only one town away in Hicksville.
