COMPETITION RULES |
Don't let all the rules scare you away from becoming an award winning pit master...it's really not all that complicated. It's VERY important for all cooks to read and undertstand the KCBS rules or you could find yourself disqualified.
To give potential cooks a general idea of what is required to successfully compete in a sanctioned KCBS event we have listed the rules in their most basic form (this is NOT a substitute for reading and understanding the rules) |
| • |
Each team shall consist of a chief cook and as many assistants as the chief cook deems necessary. |
| • |
Teams must do all their cooking and preparation within their assigned space. |

| • |
All competition meats shall be inspected by the Official Meat Inspector during the times established by the contest organizer but not prior to the day before judging. |

Sauce is optional. |

Entries will be submitted in an approved KCBS numbered container, provided by the contest organizer. |

minutes after |
