No, I'm just confused by your cryptic description! We've been to Stagecoach and had a great time prepping meat while listening to the Eagles, but it's been different each year and I don't understand what the set up is based on your blog.  I get that the vending is separate and profitable in it's own right, especially plus the 2 extra tickets, but I am confused about if the Taste of BBQ and vending are one in the same and the Taste of BBQ/vending samples are judged and considered part of Saturday's awards.  Booth and dessert are Saturday, correct?  Sunday is more vending (if applicable) and KCBS?

I have another quick question are we limited to the 1000 samples or if we bring our own cups can we sell more

[glenntm]

I understand you are limited to the 1000 branded cups they give you. 

[Thom Emery]

correct

[G$]

I see a secondary market for the branded cups.

We have been doing Taste of BBQ instead of PC The primary difference is the crowd does not "vote" of their favorite
Vending is cooking huge amounts of food for the crowd and working all the hours of the event and then paying a percentage of your gross

Taste of BBQ is about enjoying the afternoon selling 3 OZ Tastes (Kyle did Pig Candy in 2010) and giving festival goers
the chance to try many different teams comp. BBQ and creative items, All cooked on site. Most teams will do this

Saturday the CBJs will judge  the Taste Cups  and  we will have the Dessert Category
Sunday Four Meat KCBS and continued Taste of BBQ Vending

Not sure what this means, but I am not asking anymore questions because people get defensive and pretty much tell me not to come.

Walley, When I asked Thom where they were this was the answer I got,

my site click blogs it is there
The thing will be sold out by Friday

It took me a while to find the applications but found it at http://bbqthom.ning.com/profiles/blogs/stagecoach-music-festival-bbq  It wasn't there the first few time I looked then appeared as a link but the link is now not there. Maybe it is full. Hope this helps.
