Twentynine Palms Marine Base
Cooking BBQ for 13,000-18,000 Marines & their dependants
< pictures & write-up from this event >
< pictures & write-up from this event >
Team BBQbyDan (Rick & Karen Streiff, Dan
& Barbara Cannon) head out to Twentynine Palms Marine Base to provide
support to the California BBQ Association (CBBQA) as well as many volunteers
in providing a BBQ dinner to the Marines and their dependents at the
Twentynine Palms Marine Base sports field. We will all go out on
Friday, arriving in the early afternoon to prep meats, setup smokers, and
cook the traditional award winning BBQ faire that we all do so often.
All BBQ groups and volunteers are contributing (at no charge) their
time, efforts, equipment, and fuels.
Friday evening late afternoon and evening will be dedicated to unwrapping,
trimming, and seasoning 350 full size Briskets. That would be 4,662
pounds. Yes, it takes a lot of brisket to feed 18,000 folks.
Briskets will come off the cookers early Saturday, go into warmers, then
quartered and Buffalo Chopped, then into foil pans, and into the final
warmers ready to serve for dinner. Chicken, Hamburgers, and Hot Dogs
will also be served. This is the 5th year that Team BBQbyDan has had
the privilege of being a part of this great event.
Del King is one of the originators, catalysts, and unbroken link that keeps
these events happening. He keeps the Military involved, all the
volunteers updated, events planned, and is ready on a moments notice to do
an event like this anywhere.

TriTip
The History - a Brent Walton Article
By Brent Walton
Like all regions of the world and all regions of the United States, we
all have barbeque in common. Texas has brisket, the Carolinas have pork,
Kansas City has sauce, Memphis has ribs and California has Tri Tip.
Man cooking over fire is as old as man himself.

Once a year, the Kansas City BBQ Society invites its members to gather
and celebrate the hard
work of their staff, the competition cooks, judges, representatives and
sponsors. In 2012, the
banquet was held in San Diego, giving California members the luxury of
experiencing a national
event at home. The banquet returned to Kansas City this year and so did
a number of California
teams, who were honored.

Write-up below by Donna Fong added:
See complete write-up at link above:
Most new contests start off small and
grow over time, learning lessons along the way. This has never been the case
for the BBQ contest in Lake Havasu. In 2010, I was a judge at 1st Annual
Hava BBQ and there were already 71 teams competing. The following year there
were 78 teams and then 74. Now this year, the contest has grown to 84 teams.
Not only does Havasu have a ton of teams, but it also has had the heavy
hitters like Pellet Envy, Iowa's Smokey D's, 4 Legs Up, Lotta Bull, Smokin'
Triggers, Big Poppa Smokers, Swine Assassins, Slap Yo’ Daddy and Left Coast
Q. If you are a competitive team, it is a great way to measure yourself
against some of the best and not just in the west but all over.......
