Long Beach, CA, August 10, 2016 (Newswire.com) - ​The BBQ chefs from around the country gather to grill their award-winning ribs, chicken, sausage, pulled pork and other succulent delicacies. Award-winning pit masters will battle local barbecue gurus to see whose ribs, chicken, pulled pork and brisket are the most irresistible, and trust us, the competition will be intense.

The event is a KCBS BBQ sanctioned event and also qualifies for the CBBBQ (TOY).

You can't cook BBQ in five minutes, it takes all night long. It takes a lot of love, a lot of care and a lot of patience. Everybody loves BBQ. And if they say they don't it is just because they never had any that was good.
