Contest Calendar: Great American Barbecue Festival

Great American Barbecue FestivalAre you looking for something fun to do this weekend? Why not head down to Kansas City for one of the greatest barbecue competitions/festivals known to man. May 21st and 22nd will be host to the 6th annual Great American Barbecue Festival at the Wyandotte County Park at Beautiful Capital Federal Park (or Sandstone Amphitheater for those familiar with the KC area). There will be plenty of activities on site to enterain the family, including a carnival, a dedicated Kidz Zone, food/equipment vendors, live music, fireworks, and even a book signing by yours truly!!!

BBQ Makes Everything BetterJust like last year at the GAB, we’ve got a few items planned for you Bacon Explosion fans. Throughout the whole weekend we’ll have a book vendor on site selling copies of BBQ Makes Everything Better directly out of our competition site where we’ll be happy to sign your copy. You’ll probably work up an appetite by flipping through those pages, so we’ll also be selling Bacon Explosion sandwiches as well. A local boy scout troop will be handling all of the food service as a fund raiser, so swing by and purchase a Bacon Explosion sandwich to help them earn enough money to get a trailer for their philanthropic projects!!!

BBQ Makes Everything Better…Including The TODAY Show

Filed under: BBQ Makes Everything Better, General, TODAY Show, books — Jason @ 3:27 pm April 27, 2010

BBQ Makes Everything Better Over the last year and half we’ve been working non-stop on developing our first cookbook “BBQ Makes Everything Better“. All those sleepless nights are about to pay off as we’re quickly approaching May 4th, the official release date for our first book.

Now don’t go thinking that this is your standard grilling or smoking “how-to” cookbook. We do include the tips and techniques that every backyard cook should posses, but our focus in on creating delicious, mouth-watering meals through simple and easy-to-follow recipes. These are the dishes we’ve cooked for our friends and families for years, and now we’re thrilled to finally share them with you!

Including a thorough discussion of equipment, methods and techniques for cooking well beyond the “Holy Trinity of BBQ” (ribs, pork and brisket), BBQ Makes Everything Better shows you everything you need to know to make a perfect meal. Light-hearted in tone and full of easy-to-follow instructions, it’s the complete barbecue cookbook. Highlighted by our infamous Bacon Explosion recipe, BBQ Makes Everything Better also contains instructions and tips for burgers, bacon, fatties, party food and tailgates, barbecue and booze, international barbecue, leftovers, lighter fare and desserts. Be the first to get your copy and help us make this the best BBQ book on the shelves! Pick from several online retailers below!

Buy the Book

In addition to the outstanding recipes, our book also contains a password to access a special “members only” section of our website. In the very near future we will be rolling out a full scale interactive community for you to share all of your barbecue experiences. You’ll be able to post pictures and videos, as well as interact with the other visitors of our site. We’re putting the final touches on everything right now, so be on the lookout for it’s release in the coming days.

TODAY Show

And last, but certainly not least, the BBQ Addicts will be heading to New York City to promote BBQ Makes Everything Better on NBC’s TODAY Show. We’ll be cooking on live national television on the morning on May 7th. So tune in to get a glimpse of Aaron taunting Al Roker with a hot Bacon Explosion, and to also get a sneak peak at a few of the recipes included in our new book!
