Competition Barbeque Team...

I began competition
barbeque in 1998. It all started as a way for me to introduce Butt
Rub® to the public and I knew that if I could win it
would be good for business. Safe to say I was motivated!
The events, places and
people along the way have been incredible. There is no competition
in the world like barbeque. Intensely competitive and yet always a
good time. Barbeque folks are the best! It has been an honor and a
privilege to be a competitor and I suspect it will be a part of me
and Butt Rub®
for years to come.

"While the Worlds of a Culinary Institute of America trained
Chef and a BBQ Champion are really quite different, the very
best of both Worlds clearly seem to share a common
characteristic. Both have that personal involvement in
a labor of love that makes their end result so superior." |
