Important... You must be logged into this website with your email and password in order to access the registration for the event.
At this time, we are planning on 3 tables, but will be adjusted based on updated team count.
We are looking for the following:

  • 18 Judges - Judges will be selected with preference for PNWBA Certified BBQ Judges. If you are not a PNWBA CBJ but are a KCBS CBJ, then you may be placed in a volunteer position or moved to a wait list as PNWBA CBJ's are given preference.
  • 3 Table Captains - Preference will be to those certified as Table Captains.
  • 4 Volunteers - Food Runners, Meat Wranglers, and general helpers.
Due to the fluid nature of this event, signing up does not guarantee a judging spot. Please be willing to volunteer as needed. Should there be a reduction in judges needed, an email will be sent to see if you would wish to volunteer.
Head Judges will make the final assessment of volunteers and choose the seated judges. Tables will also be adjusted by the Head Judges at the event to try and even out the judge levels and experience.
