Windy City Rib Classic – Old School BBQ Contest
August 12th Theater on the Lake
Link to website


Jared Leonard and myself, Gary Wiviott, are holding an Old School ‘Even Playing Field” BBQ contest, no gas, no computers, no fans, no electric, a true Pitmaster competition.

20-BBQ Teams, Bands, Demos and judges picked for BBQ knowledge instead of Q-Rating, held on the veranda of Theater on the Lake, BBQ with a lake view.

WCRC supplies the meat, Wichita Packing ribs and Kingdom Farms Amish chicken, no bringing in Tokyo X, even playing field my friend.

Attendance is free, you will be able to interact with the cooking teams, though I suggest keeping a distance just before turn-in, and there will be food and beer available for purchase. WCRC is not a vending event.

For those with a competitive urge there are still spots left to compete. Link to signup

Our intention is to make WCRC a yearly event, start small, well not that small, and grow from there.

Keep it low, Keep it slow,
Gary Wiviott

A friend has family visiting from Brazil and they are super excited about this - the perfect "American" experience for their visit! Hoping weather is perfect!
