The Campground BBQ Series offers nationally sanctioned state BBQ championships scattered throughout the Northeast U.S. Because they are hosted at local campgrounds, these contests allow BBQ teams to compete with every advantage necessary, including electric, water, trash and even sewage disposal. They also allow teams to wind down in private comfort and just enjoy the cooking process, and time spent with friends and family. The winners of each contest qualify for national championships.
Masters Contests, April 12 (SAT) and/or April 13 (SUN) — ENTRY FEE: $355 for 1 contest or $345 each for 2 contests (includes all 4 main categories per contest, previous night’s campground lodging) — 27 Team Min/Day
KCBS 1-Meat Chicken and/or Ribs Contests, April 12 (SAT) — ENTRY FEE: $125 for one or $230 for both (category TOY points) — 8 Team Min/contest
Hot Dogs ANCILLARY, April 13 (SUN) — ENTRY FEE: $25 — 8 Team Min
If you’re interested in competing in the Campground BBQ Series, they accept teams of all skill levels. For teams just starting out that aren’t yet comfortable in competing in all four categories, they can hand-select 1, 2 or 3 categories to start with, with a reduced overall entry fee reflective of the number of categories.
