RULES OF THE BBQ

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)
