So what are some things you would want to see in such a film?
1. Explaination of who we are and what we do (most people think I slap chicken on a weber and thats bbq)
2. Processes involved in great BBQ
3. Explaination of why comp bbq differs from a restaurant or a backyard
4. Relationship amongst all us teams, judges, and the public
5. The anatomy of a bbq contest, how it all works
6. Celebrations with family, fellow teams and freinds. Most of all I want to see the moments that tug at all of our heartstrings and make me remember why I do this to myself week in and week out. Not just for GC's, but that first time rookie team that gets a 6th place walk in brisket after they thought it was trash. The veteran team next door that helped out and mentored that team, opening a beer and giving hugs and handshakes to everyone that will take them. That's what we do. That's real bbq.
more technique/recipe of the 4 meats (kcbs)?
There is more to BBQ than KCBS. There's MIM, MBN, FBA, NCBA, NEBS, LBS, CBA, just to name a few. All with different rules, cuts, and techniques. If it's a Doc about KCBS bbq, stick to the 4 meats...if its about all of Competition BBQ then you got a few main BBQ meats...Beef Brisket, Pork Shoulder/Butt, Whole Hog, Chicken, and of course Pork Ribs.
would you want to know more about the competitors? or the equipment?
Both, but people relate to people. And honestly, if you go into too much detail on the equipment, there is just too much for civilians to handle. You could do an entire doc on just smokers...maybe general examples like "offset" or "gravity fed" or "pellet".
lemme know, all thoughts are welcomed.
I love this sport, hell I grew up in it...You make an honest to god documentary about it, not the drama induced wreck that was pitmasters, and I will be the first in line to see it.
Good luck,
Neil
