“The 6th Annual West Coast BBQ Championships will be the first to crown
three KCBS Grand Champions in two days!”, says Carolyn Wells Founder &
Executive Director of the Kansas City BBQ Society, “As the largest governing
body of BBQ contests in the world, we sanction nearly 300 contests every
year. It is a rare occasion that will we have a double, where two open KCBS
four meat contests are held back to back on one weekend. Never before have
three full four meat KCBS bar-b-que contests ever been attempted in two
days.” Three contests in two days will be achieved by having one contest
each day, and the third contest divided over the two days. Click the link

Twentynine Palms Marine Base
Cooking BBQ for
13,000-18,000 Marines & their dependants
< pictures & write-up from this event >

< pictures & write-up from this event >
Team BBQbyDan (Rick & Karen Streiff, Dan
& Barbara Cannon) head out to Twentynine Palms Marine Base to provide
support to the California BBQ Association (CBBQA) as well as many volunteers
in providing a BBQ dinner to the Marines and their dependents at the
Twentynine Palms Marine Base sports field. We will all go out on
Friday, arriving in the early afternoon to prep meats, setup smokers, and
cook the traditional award winning BBQ faire that we all do so often.
All BBQ groups and volunteers are contributing (at no charge) their
time, efforts, equipment, and fuels.
Friday evening late afternoon and evening will be dedicated to unwrapping,
trimming, and seasoning 350 full size Briskets. That would be 4,662
pounds. Yes, it takes a lot of brisket to feed 18,000 folks.
Briskets will come off the cookers early Saturday, go into warmers, then
quartered and Buffalo Chopped, then into foil pans, and into the final
warmers ready to serve for dinner. Chicken, Hamburgers, and Hot Dogs
will also be served. This is the 5th year that Team BBQbyDan has had
the privilege of being a part of this great event.
Del King is one of the originators, catalysts, and unbroken link that keeps
these events happening. He keeps the Military involved, all the
volunteers updated, events planned, and is ready on a moments notice to do
an event like this anywhere.

Hey all, Since I have been on a roll
organizing things these past few weeks I figure why stop now. I am thinking
I would like to do my annual backyard warm-up event on March 22nd. This hits
just a bit before all the contests and hopefully the start of some good
weather. If you are not familiar with this event let me provide you with a
brief description. I bring 6-8 teams together at my place to cook chicken,
ribs and a mystery meat. CBJ's do an "open" judging commenting on each
entry. The winners in each entry won some recycled bowling trophies last
year (hey, so I'm cheap). This was followed by a sit down dinner with family
and friends and of course live acoustic music. Great stories and lies were
told around the camp fire. Also, for those that travel far you are welcome
to camp out in my yard.

The California BBQ Association is a non profit organization that fund raises
for California Children's Charities through participating in Barbecue events
such as contests and cooking classes. This CBBQA educational program is
dedicated to promoting the art of Low-n-Slow Barbecue. This year’s first one
day class, "An Introduction to Authentic Barbecue", caters to the backyard
novice chef, and will be scheduled from 9AM-4PM on March 7, 2009 in
Hollister, California. Many of our CBBQA veteran competition Pitmasters can
trace their roots back to the early days spent practicing on their own
backyard grills and smokers. Its where the love for the art of Low and Slow
BBQ was born---cooking for family and friends.
