BBQ Events

A Teacher Tells, A Good Teacher Explains, A Better Teacher Demonstrates, The Best Teacher Inspires...

Author Anonymous…

I have gotten literally dozens of queries on our BBQ classes…why no posts…when are they scheduled…who is coming…what are the topics this year? Etc.

Thank you for your interest and your questions. We are extremely flattered and humbled that y’all would even consider a BBQ class here at the ranch. Like I have always said "I don't know who was having the better time at those classes...you or us!"

I’m sad to announce there will be no formal class at the ranch this year…so much to do...so little time. By request we have agreed to teach two out of state classes… one on whole hog and the other on BBQ, Low and Slow.

A BBQ road show. I felt we had to reach out and touch some of those folks who could not come to us...a little more work but if we can expand the concept of low and slow beyond the comforts afforded here at the ranch... BBQ will be all the better for it. (I only wish we could take the pizza oven!!!)

I have also agreed to donate some spare time for travel to various fire (engine) houses across the state to teach and demonstrate BBQ to many of the brave firefighters who daily, put their lives on the line for all of us. How rich is that, teaching firemen amd women how to control a fire!!!


Our goal is to have an interdepartmental cook-off between Engine House’s across WA. to raise funds for the charitable organizations they support…more on that as the specifics are worked out.

As always we are committed to helping all past, present, or future students of low and slow with any questions on cooking, pits, BBQ wood or??? I’m never to busy for you! Simply use the contact button on the home page for an email response or better yet give me a call or stop by…We'll leave the light on for ya.

I brought this up at a meeting yesterday (and gave out your website) so you might get some inquiries. I think South King Fire will be on board! (right Roy?)

Well, having beat Edgewood FD last year I'm thinking that I should have flown my colors as a King County International Airport (aka Boeing Field) firefighter! (especially given that Milton FD no showed)

Now once you've trained up some more firehouses on fire management and get a date set I have a Kent fire Captain and a Skyway fire Captain who want to get their feet wet in a comp!

Bummer!
I really enjoy the classes at the Ranch! I hope everything works out for you. The Black Lake competition is being held next door to the Fire Station, any chance of working that into your itinerary? Whole Hog is something that I want to experience soon!

I was so looking forward to the class. In lieu of that maybe you could publish a series of articles covering:
---BBQ COOKOFF EQUIPMENT SUGGESTIONS
---EACH CATEGORY OF MEAT
---PRESENTATIONS

Even better might be rather than a cook is to have a half day open forum on BBQ competitions covering the above areas and say limit of 20-30 minutes on each subject. Have noted BBQers for each topic so to take the burden off of yourself and at the same time promote some open discussions
