Hey gang,
We're are out of the BBQ competition business for now. Life's just too damn short to deal with the kind of stuff we had to deal with during the last two KCBS comps. I guess having fun isn't part of the rule book.
Yep, Rick had a convo with Mike about a possible BCS comp, but here's one thing we know for sure: we're going to focus on doing what we do best: produce a killer event for tons of people. The date's May 4th. It's the 4th Annual Arizona Barbecue Festival. Some of you just received the vendor forms from Salt River Fields, but the overall details of the event have yet to be announced. I can guarantee you'll want to save the date - not nec to compete, but to come see what we've got planned.
No doubt we're going to miss watching you all duke it out for big money, but to be honest, we'd rather just take that money and buy you a beer. It's not only cheaper, it's a hell of a lot more fun.
Thx!
Rick & Tyda
