The people in the know always refer to BBQ as 'the sport".

Having looked into the mirror and then looking at my fellow competitors I cant call it a sport with a straight face......Im having a hard time typing this without laughing. I call it a fabulous hobby

Just think if after turn in we could have pork butt punting and rib throwing...now there is a sport.

Maybe its the waddling to the turn in to beat the clock?

Your thoughts?

cant edit the title sorry should say "why do the people call BBQ a sport"?

Because it is competition and sport is often used as meaning competition. Of course, we'd never consider cake decorating a sport. But synchronized swimming is? I think it's a bit of both, hobby and sport. I'm not certain that anything that is judged so completely subjectively is truly "sport."

If anything it is Sports Entertainment. I think to be a sport you need to have offense and defense. Whatever the label once your enjoying it should be what matters.
