Why: To get ready for Atlantic Canada’s first barbecue cooking contest!

Barbecue, a uniquely Southern American style of cooking -- more a lifestyle to some -- is catching on in Canada. More people are grilling, smoking and barbecuing (yes, there are differences: come learn!) and wanting to learn the finer points. Competitions are huge in the U.S.; you see them on TV regularly, it seems. They are growing in other parts of Canada, and efforts are underway to create a barbecue cooking competition in Nova Scotia -- the Atlantic Canada championship. It has a name: Maritime Meat Mayhem.
Many locally want to learn and check out what they need to know as they get ready to cook. The CSBBQA will show you the fine points of preparing for a contest; the time and money commitments as well as how to judge barbecue and what judges are looking for.
