Pre-cooking is allowed, but it can get a bit crowded in the kitchen. The entire social hall is available for prep space, so there is plenty of room for preparing your rubs, sauces etc., but you might be fighting for oven room.

I even found out I could rent a bike somewhat cheaply in Nashville during the same weekend. But my with the kids in school, and a trip planned in May, I could't justify it enough. Hopefully next year! http://jdmdad.blogspot.com/2007/08/playing-what-if-can-sometime-really.html On a barely related note, I got a Rival "Crockpit" BBQ relatively cheap at a Labor Day sale/clearance. Hope to try to do some indoor BBQ with it, they have a nice looking BBQ brisket receipe in their book, and my wife has a brisket sitting in the freezer that needs some attention. :-) It does look like fun, and I was sorely tempted.

Otherwise the briskets will be quite a challenge (mine often fall in the 18-20 hour range) Questions aside, this looks like an awful lot of fun for the small band of kosher lovers of authentic Q.

You'll be provided a table and a couple of chairs, along with the 2 grills, so anything else you're on your own for. We'll work on getting some pictures of booths from past years to give you an idea. Some groups are pretty sparce and "let their cooking do the talking" and some are very elaborate (though their cooking may be suspect) LOL! ;) You could ship some things, if you like, UPS or our local favorite FedEx.

Since I've never attended this (or any) competition before, I'm viewing this event as learning the ropes before my entry into the 20th annual BBQ. :) I’m not exactly sure how we can manage to bring decorations for a booth on the plane.

Not bad from a few guys out in the parking lot cooking briskets and beef ribs. This year looks to be the biggest, with as many as 40 teams, so the cometition is that much more heated. I know that you guys and the team from Nashville have been practicing. That team is led by the former BarBQue Evangelist, Michael Attias, who spent many years in the BBQ business and couldn't understand how he did not place in his first year of competition. However his team's Booth, did win an award, so don't forget that Booth (not necessarily a Sukkah) is also a part of the cometition as is your team's name. We look forward to having many of you down either to compete or just schmooz, so that we can show you Southern Hospitality.
