This was our first year of competing, and we expected to be in the red at the end of the year. We limited ourselves to 4 contests so we could get a feeling of what it would cost us per event. After our 4th event we found that for local events (3 hours or less in distance), we could do a comp for about $900. This would include entrance fee, Comp meat(2 briskets, 4 butts, 6 racks of spares, and 18 thighs), fuel, and supplies. If we wanted to do PC, it cost us an extra $200 for the extra meat and serving supplies. But even with the PC, we were still in the red this year. For us this is a hobby, so it's really not a money making venture. Next year our goal is to up the number of events to 10, but even if we participated in PC we'll be lucky to to break even.
