I was afraid you were going to do the same at Jasper...:wink:
My buddy Chris with Dizzy Pig hauls 7 Big Green Eggs to every contest in an enclosed trailer. I've helped him load & unload those suckers many times. Dont let that hold you back if you already have the equipment.
As far as I know he's never broken one. We were in a nasty wind storm in Covington, VA about a month ago and several UDS's were trashed. The Eggs held their ground fine.
Start up costs never stop lol. You gotta have more, bigger or better.
I started last year with unsanctioned contests and at first one had a basic 93 Dakota truck. A Big steel keg and an 18 WSM. I bought a canopy(no lights) and a table and the biggest ice chest I could find. I also made sure I had 3 wash bins. Then my next unsanctioned. I added another cooler, lights,table, pellet grill.
Then this year I have done 3 KCBS and 1 unsanctioned. I had to get a bigger truck another WSM(22) 2 BBQ Guru Party Q another cooler and another table and a 2nd canopy.
I still have 1 more unsanctioned contest this year but then I am done this year because I think I am just starting out and I know I have to buy more things starting out. A camper or trailer, decent knives, cambro,and a good class, etc etc etc......i dont think it ever stops.
