Tryon NC. We cook on two Cookshack FEC-100 pellet smokers and our specialty is KCBS contests and the four categories chicken, ribs, butts, and brisket.We also make our living in the BBQ World... our book, Competition BBQ Secrets, was one of the first books on the subject of competition BBQ when it was written in 2006. It’s still a best seller today and is the “go to” book for many a BBQ Team. Our website is www.bbq-book.com.
For teams, restaurant owners, and back yarders that want to step it up a notch, we have a complete set of online BBQ instructional videos at www.BarbecueCoach.com. Again, we are the pioneer in this form of BBQ instruction. BarbecueCoach.com includes members like the Swine Assassins (KCBS Team of the Year runner up) and Git-R-Smoked (FBA Team of the Year).
