I wanted to do this last year but figured you would need a trailered or size equivilant pit to cook the volume needed. Was I correct in that assumption?

You need something to cook the quantities needed.

If God wanted us to be Vegetarians, why did he make animals out of meat??

We are in again. Last year was crazy we had as many rib racks as we could get in iur big offset and still sold out an an hour. Last year we did 30 racks a day we plan on doubling that (at least)this year. And either renting a second smoker or buying one. We are in for a refrigerator truck if you can make that happen Dennis maybe we can get a good deal on ribs if we go in together

How is everyone selling? By the bone, multi bone split, half rack, full rack? Also there has to be a going rate everyone is selling them for, if so what can I expect.

Last year we started selling 2 Bone, Half Rack & Full Rack.  We stopped doing Half Rack & Full Rack almost immediately as we saw we would easily sell out doing the 2 bone & much more profit on the 2 bone.

We also did Pork & Sides.

I think we were doing 2 Bone & 2 Sides for $7 or $8.  Most everyone agrees on a price before, but you are free to charge what you want.

Last year most of the teams agreed on 2 bones for $5, and that worked great.  Like Mike said, we also offered half and full racks, but very quickly stopped that, and just sold the individual ribs.

Mike, do we know of the date, etc has been confirmed?

Thanks!

Pete

Thanks Mike, that is great.

On the form it lists the both spaces as 10x20...Are going to have extra room like last year?  In most cases, we used about 20x30 for the pits and ez-ups.

Also, do you know what the prize $$ breakdown will be?

Thanks again

Pete
