California BBQ Association Q-Fest 2012
10-11-12-February
East Shore RV, Lake Puddingstone
San Dimas California
Each year, the CBBQA hosts a weekend long celebration in southern California for all of its members throughout the state. The party is held at the East Shore RV park next to Lake Puddingstone in San Dimas, California. The lake itself covers 220 acres and is popular with boaters and fishermen alike. The park that surrounds it has equestrian facilities, an 18 hole golf course, hot tubs and a water theme park to boot. The RV park sits comfortably on top of hill, overlooking San Gabriel Valley. California’s own BBQ Hall of Fame member, Dan Cannon, organizes this event like clockwork.
Friday night welcomed members with a carne asada taco bar, tri-tip, beef sausage and multiple forms of salads. On Saturday morning, we awoke to Dan’s famous sausage gravy and rolls, accompanied by corn beef hash, pancakes, potatoes, eggs, chorizo, and fruit. Then for Saturday afternoon dinner members feasted on even more food! All of this was potluck and considering some of California’s best cooks were around, nobody was complaining. And neither was Kelleigh Strobel who received a $2000 charitable donation from the CBBQA to the Kristie’s foundation which provides end-of-life care for children and support for their families.
Ten members of the California Hall of Fame elected their newest member, 2011 CBBQA President, Larry Hill. Larry is well known for his charitable contributions to the community and as one of the best solo pitmasters around. He regularly contributes to the success of other teams locally and in big national competitions like the American Royal.
Congratulations go out to Adam Hollman of Huminie's Hogalicious BBQ from Gilroy, for his hard earned title of 2011 Rookie Team of the Year. This was probably one of the toughest rookie races in the west with four of the top ten spots in California occupied by rookies. Adam’s talent and endurance throughout the race was an amazing sight to behold throughout the year. Not to be surpassed, pitmaster, Harry Soo of Slap Yo’ Daddy BBQ made a repeat appearance as California’s top Team of the Year for a second year in a row. Harry continues to lead the pack with his modest smoker and his less is more approach to BBQ. Congratulations to all of the teams who competed this year, trophies or no trophies. Thank you for sharing what you love with all of us and keep smoking!

The below comments were cut & pasted from the www.CBBQA.com BBQ forum


Jerry Aguilar - from the www.CBBQA.com  forum:
 
Good to see everyone at Q-fest yesterday. Congratulations again to all that received awards, those were some very nice trophies!
 
Too bad for the rain at the end of awards, I was hoping to stay longer, oh well still had a great time. Good eats too!
 


Matthew Fish - from the www.CBBQA.com  forum
 
Yesterday was a blast. It was nice to hang out for a while before the rain hit. It was too much for the family with Marianne in a cast. I
would of loved to stay longer but it did not look like it wanted to end while we were in the car. Thanks for all the fun and the grub was
great. I dont think there was anything that wasnt great at that table. I am kinda partial to the beans, but that fried chicken was off the
hook too. Thanks everyone had a great time. See everyone at NBBQA or at Santa Anita.
 


Andrew Soto - from the www.CBBQA.com  forum:
 
Had a blast at Q-Fest, it was great to see the BBQ family in a relaxed setting. Congratulations to all the teams who received an award this
year!
  
The food was awesome and plentiful, many thanks to all who cooked such great dishes!
 
Too bad the rain shortened the awards ceremony
 


Butch Richardson - from the www.CBBQA.com  forum:
   
I had a great time this weekend meeting lot's of new people and putting faces to names. The food was great but I was not surprised
considering who was there. Looking forward to see you all again in the future.
 
The awards were almost finished and the gods decided to turn on the rain. some peeps went for shelter some stayed and stoked the fire and got  wet, stayed warn and were so close to the fire created their own steam fog. Guessing from comments I heard things will have to be posted and caught up on later.
 


Adam Holloman - from the www.CBBQA.com  forum:
 
My whole family had a really great time at Q-Fest! Well worth the drive as we had a ton of fun! Thanks to everyone who played a part in
making this such a wonderful event!!!

Friday was an absolutely beautiful day. Warm and sunny. Saturday was a bit chilly with some drizzle in the morning, but it stayed dry for
both meals. It wasn't until Harry was receiving the perpetual ToY award that the skies really opened up. It was a shame because if it had
held off for 5 or 10 more minutes everything would have been done. We missed out on the Hall of Fame award(s) etc as everyone scrambled for shelter from the rain.  And those who came for the day ran to their cars and most were gone when it stopped about 45 minutes  later. We were dry and warm in our trailer though!
 


  
Thanks to everybody  for coming out,
 

What a GREAT weekend & Q-Fest for 2012.  Thanks to all that made it out.  As I say every year...Thanks again for everybody's support and participation. 

 

Friday evening Potluck was the best yet!!!.  Everybody turned in such GREAT submissions.  I enjoyed EVERYTHING a bunch.  Thanks to all the  folks for providing an entrées and making everything so special !!!

- All Hogs Go To Heaven (Steve Madaule) for bringing a truck full of wood both this year and last (we went through it all)
    
Without the wood we would all be miserable as the fire was going from Friday evening through Sunday morning, event the rain could not put it out !!! Thanks a bunch !!!   

   
AND... Everybody that brought EVERYTHING... without everybody's participation it would not work !!!
   
EVERYBODY did such an excellent job in spreading out all the work and making it so easy to do this year.   As I always say, "Many hands make little work", and this year proved that ESPECIALLY !!!

ESPECIALLY, lets all thank the McDonalds for bringing that BIG batch of Firewood that cam in so handy !!!
