Team, we have some good news to share with you this morning. Royal Oak Charcoal has committed to be back with us for 2016. As you are aware, the cook team has learned a lot at judging school and from our practice presentation to three BBQ Fest judges. High quality charcoal and wood is key to getting our preparation just right, and Royal Oak will provide those products. We thank Royal Oak and are excited about their commitment to the Moody Ques.

We still have room for an additional sponsor or two. If you know anyone who would be interested in sponsoring this award-winning, highly visible team that is well covered in the media, please email moodyques@gmail.com and let us know. Please show potential sponsors our sponsorship packet. If anyone needs a printed copy of the packet, please email the team and we will get you one. Remember that all sponsorship levels in the packet are just sample ideas of what we have to offer. We can work with sponsors to customize a BBQ experience that meets their needs.

For months the cook team has been refining their cooking process, using the information the team learned at judging school and the feedback we received from the BBQ judges at our practice presentation. The cooks are ready to show the rest of the team what they have learned! We are having a team meeting and mixer, a MEAT and greet, on Saturday, March 19. We will have a full shoulder and several racks of ribs for you to try. However, we need to gauge interest so we know how much meat to buy. If you plan to come, please RSVP to moodyques@gmail.com.

We will have more information on the MEAT and greet, in particular the time and location, in the coming weeks. Be sure to check this website often. If you are not getting the team emails let us know and we will add you.
