  2. Hey Bill,

    We're looking at 40 teams this year. If we can get more certified rib judges and our village allows us to use a portion of the street, we may be able to go to 50. Thanks for your support! Very much appreciated!

  4. 20 teams in less than two weeks is truly amazing. We value everyones' support! I sent in an application to judge Westmont's Red, White & BBQ. A great event. If I'm not selected to judge, I will cook it. See y'all there!

  7. There is Libertyville at Lamb's Farm in October.
    The best thing to do is check out KCBS under events. I'm pondering going to Kenosha, WI for the Grill Games.

  12. Agreed. If we were able to locate more certified bbq judges we could accept 50 teams as I believe we will have the room this year. But finding the judges is not easy. If anyone knows of any certified judges that may want to judge our contest, please have them email me at gebackyardbbq@gmail.com or call me at 630-890-0465. Thanks!
