AMERICAN ROYAL 2011

Well another one is behind us. We had the INner Sanctum MBQI BBQ Contest class. Had 7 students for the 3 day event. All had fun, did lots of demos, I was on the Jasper Show (710) "live" was also on the Firebug Show (710 "live". Did a cooking demo for the Royal in the inside of Hale arean. Met Jefferey Saad from Food Network and we had a great time chatting, signed him a autographed cookbook, my NEW one Simple BACKYARD BARBECUING From Grilling to Smoking. 

Great to see all my old friends and have lots of students stop by, had several students get calls on Sunday and Team MBQI took a every nice 4th place call in sausage. Already planning for next year!!
