 General Information

• Space requirements- Each team will be assigned a 10 x 20 space in the parking lot in which to set up your BBQ.  You may use tents, tables and your tailgate as long as it all fits into your space.  If not, you must park your vehicle in one of the side lots available for parking. 
• Teams who need to use electricity for their tents must provide their own heavy duty extension cord and it will have to be at least 100 ft long so that it may reach the power outlet.
• Large dumpsters will be provided for the BBQ area but each team must provide their own trash bags for cleanup.
• A water facility will be available for those who need it.
• Competitors must be able to supply enough of their BBQ for at least 500 samplings (2 oz portions).  This will cover the judges and the people's choice judges, as well as, the public tasting after judging.
• Each team may only submit one item to be judged per category.
• Anyone tasting your BBQ before 4 pm must have a taster’s choice sticker and a tasting packet.  After 4 pm, tasting will be open to public.
