Good luck to you and the young lady! Has she learned how to cook some comp food on that new grill?

Yes she has. She did a Sopapia Cheese cake in Emporia and tied for first (with 3 others) and a 180. She hasn't come down yet!

Is there a link to the Info.

NBBQA is sponsoring contests now?

I don't follow them that close to know about other contests, but here is the link:
www.National Bar-B-Que Derby.com website.
Or For more information about this event and how to get involved, email NationalBarBQueDerby@derbyweb.com.

I just know that this contest has the City of Derby totally behind it and it is run in a very professional manner.

Sounds like a fun event. Good cause.

correct website:

http://www.derbyweb.com/nationalbarbquederby.cfm

I did look, didn't see anything about the National BBQ Association. I do see a reference about National BBQ News.

I think you confused me when you said "sanctioned by".

It doesn't look sanction by KCBS, and NBBQA doesn't sanction contests.

Appears to be something called the "National BBQ Festival LLC".

Sanction can make a difference to some times, so they get entries into the larger events.

It is not a KCBS contest. This association is not very large, but does have a structure similar to KCBS.

Look at http://www.derbyweb.com/nationalbarbquederby.cfmI think you gave this Russ. You can contact Cynthia Wentworth the Information Director for the City of Derby.
Also, look at the photos.
