The very best in BBQ will be invited to compete at this unique competition on December 13th, 2014. The King of the Smoker competition will be located at the beautiful La Quinta Resort & Club in La Quinta, CA and will feature some of the top names in BBQ. 24 big BBQ names will be competing for $50,000 and the title of, “King of the Smoker.”
But, Big Poppa's King of the Smoker is a competition with a twist! Each Pitmaster will be required to cook the same meat, no garnish, and they are allowed zero electricity to assist in their cook. That's right... no pit minders, Gurus, or pellet cookers will be permitted! The King of the Smoker is an old school competition with a level playing field, and is sanctioned by the Kansas City BBQ Society under their Competitor Series.
Public is allowed access to the competition grounds after final turn in at 1:30PM. Starting immediately after, select teams will be hosting mini BBQ classes to attendees. Mini BBQ classes will cover everything from, "rubs & sauces," to, "brisket tips & tricks." Most of these championship teams never host classes or share their cooking tips with the public; this is something that only happens at King of the Smoker!

Yes, the CBBQA website under upcoming events. When I last checked it on Oct 11th it showed the 6th. Looks like the page was updated on Oct 13th. Either that or my mind is playing tricks on me.
No worries, I just changed the date on my calendar to the 13th. Hoping I get a return call as a judge as I've had the privilege of judging KoS I and II.

This is the coolest BBQ contest. Anyone that can should come out and enjoy. The mini classes are quick and one right after another. I trim brisket they way I learned at a KOS mini class.
