“Green Up” The Competition Scene…

I was talking with someone about competition barbecue the other day.  The person I was talking too took a particular interest in what kind of containers were used for the turn ins.  I told her they were Styrofoam…she cringed!  Then she asked me if that was the standard at comps across the country.  I told her, from what I have seen, that her suspicion was correct.

She asked me a number of questions that I didn’t have an answer for…but after talking with her for a while, I began to see a new mission for me.  That being to convince bbq sanctioning bodies to “Go Green” at their competitions…I know…a long shot, but I think it is worth pursuing if for nothing else then to educate people on what they use and how it affects everything around us.

I will be having this Green Expert on my radio show in a few weeks to let her speak on the subject.  I hope you will follow my developments on this and if you have any suggestions please let me know!
