Just can justify the crazy costs these days with 5 Kids and a wife.

I wish there were local back yard contest where it didn't cost and arm and a leg
to play.
Just a reminder, there are rules that keep championship/multiple, Masters series cook teams from cooking a backyard contest!

Definition for Backyard Cook Team
A. Any member of the team who has not entered in and competed in more than twelve (12) sanctioned “Master Series” BBQ competitions in the past and;
B. Any person who has been a member of a team who has not been awarded a Grand Champion or Reserve Champion status in any KCBS Sanctioned “Master Series” competition and;
C. Any member of the team who has competed in three (3) or less “Master Series BBQ competitions within the current competition year.

Good point, and my favorite is the "team of wives" whose husbands have been doing competition BBQ for 10+ years.

I try to keep all of my competitions within a 4 hour drive, which is difficult.
A couple weeks ago we drove 6 hours to Savannah, and glad we did, we walked with GC.


Next week we are driving 8 hours to New Holland PA, the rest of our comps for the year are within the 4 hour driving radius.



It is still expensive, but I am consistently getting calls so that makes it all worth while!

I believe all KCBS reps have access to all team records and should be pre-contest checking teams.
Or upper echelon cook teams can cheat and try to beat the backyard guys and hope you don't get caught!

I believe some of the dedicated backyard teams could probably walk on some of the masters teams.

Absolutely, however fees, meats, and equipment are enough to keep them enjoying the backyard competitions.
It's important to have a venue for them.
