There is. Is called 'Backyard" or the rib comp at the local church down the road.
Competition BBQ is focused to best meet the criteria of the sanctioning body. There are literally millions of people that can make your "real BBQ" you describe every weekend in their backyard, but probably only about 50 teams in the US that can consistently hit all the marks to place well in the competition world.
Take a step back. Go take a judging class, or take a cook class. If you have an open mind you will appreciate the effort and skill involved.
