What we do . . .

We like to sit around the barbecue pit, watching the smoke rising out of the stack, drinking a Dr. Pepper or maybe an adult beverage and pondering barbecue, the size of the universe, the meaning of life and other matters of importance.

We also, from time to time, if the feeling strikes us just right, and we've got a beverage in hand, will impart our "Q" knowledge to new barbecue friends so that they too can produce real barbecue.  So join us for some fun, food and friends!  Who knows, you might just learn a thing or two about barbecue, the size of the universe, the meaning of life and other matters of importance. 

Q-Fests

Several times a year, we organize barbecue festivals (“Q-Fests”) at a park or campground. We smoke some meat, bring a potluck dish and have ourselves a very nice weekend. In addition, we put on seminars and demonstrations relating to barbecue and cooking. 


CBBQA members and friends line up at the buffet line at a Q-Fest.


Bill Wight presents his salsa making seminar at a Q-Fest.


Dan Cannon instructs on how to make sausage at a Q-Fest Seminar.

Picnics

We have “backyard smoke-outs”, beach parties, picnics and tailgate parties at the ballpark. We fire up a smoker and a grill or two and do some barbecue and hamburgers.

We help organize sanctioned BBQ contests in California and promote contests across America and around the world, like the American Royal in Kansas City, Memphis-in-May, and the World Championships.

Kids

And we host Kids Q contests, picnics, barbecues and parties for needy children and their families.

He host a cbbqa mailing list on Yahoo Groups that allows our members and friends to stay in touch and share ideas and recipes.  This is a great place to ask barbecue or cooking related questions.

Join the cbbqa mailing list and keep in touch
