ABC BBQ Contest

Description

A BBQ BASH FOR A CAUSE!

We’re closing out summer in the best way we know how—BBQ and great company!

Friday, August 22
Knights of Columbus Park

Shawnee, KS

Join ABC for a day of mouthwatering BBQ, unbeatable networking, and giving back — all to support our Pre-Apprenticeship Program! Help us close out summer while investing in the future construction workforce.

🔥 BBQ Contest Team:

Gather your crew (up to 4 per team) and enter the BBQ Competition! Teams will compete in a Blind Box turn-in of ribs and chicken — plus battle it out for the coveted People’s Choice Award. Competitors may serve their BBQ of choice for the tasting portion, but must provide samples for attendees to vote.

🎟️ Tasting Ticket:
Support the cause and join us with a Tasting Ticket! Sample BBQ from competing teams, cast your vote for the People’s Choice Winner and network with fellow industry professionals. Proceeds go directly to funding pre-apprenticeship opportunities.

🤝 Sponsorships Available:
Want to spend the day mingling with competitors and connecting with attendees? Sponsorships are the perfect way to support the next generation of tradespeople and get in front of key industry contacts.

Are you KCBS certified—or know someone who is? Want to be? We’re currently looking for judges to help evaluate this year’s entries. Submit your interest by registering or email kara@abcksmo.org if you’re interested in judging the contest.
