WE HAVE REACHED OUR GOAL OF $1,000 FOR THE KIDS, THANK YOU!!

I am giving up a seat for my Q School Nov. 5-6 being held in Winter Haven, FL behind the Boy’s Club on beautiful Lake Cannon.

Click the PayPal link below to make a donation of $25 or more for the Winter Haven Citrus Center Boys and Girls Clubs. They have been our charity of choice for many years, because we see first-hand the goodness they bring to local kids in need. Each $25 donation will earn you a chance in a drawing for a free seat in my class which is valued at $500. My goal is to hit $1,000 for the kids. Each entry will have a 1 in 40 chance of winning. I will have a live Facebook drawing (Rub Bagby) and notify the winner. I will give a check for 100% of money donated to our Citrus Center Boy’s and Girl’s Clubs, and Swamp Boys will cover the PayPal fees. If you enter and don’t win, up to $50 of your donation to the Club can be deducted from your entry fee. It’s a win-win! Thanks for helping the kids and good luck!

Mark your calendar, make plans, call the sitter. Swamp Boys Q School is set for the first Saturday and Sunday in November.

Join me for this 2 day class, where you will learn the art and science of barbecue. This class is great for any level of experience – from the first time backyarder, to the seasoned competitor. I will share all of the techniques and tips I have learned over the past 18 years of competing, teaching you how to make the best food in the neighborhood or for the judges. Also I will be sharing recipes that have helped me win over 110 Championships.

We will cover both hot and fast, and low and slow styles. This techniques and methods class is NOT specific to any one cooker, it is adaptable for all.

Class will be held behind the Citrus Center Boys and Girls Club located at 2400 Havendale Blvd, Winter Haven FL. There will be a CCTV setup so everyone sees everything easily.

Class begins at noon on Saturday and goes until dinner time when you are treated to a smoked prime rib meal with all of the fixin’s. Afterwards you can shoot the breeze around the campfire, or retire for the night. RV’s and campers welcome with a $30 hookup fee (benefits Boys and Girls Club). Sunday morning we start back at 7:30 and there will be pastries and coffee. You will also get to sample chicken, ribs, pork, and brisket on Sunday – no one goes hungry! Class typically ends around 3-3:30pm or when all the questions have been answered.

To avoid missing out, register early. $500 includes everything and some swag. Verified teammates $400. Spouse $200. Each attendee must complete an application. Pay by check to the address on the application. Click the file for the application, print and mail in. Nov’22 App

Swamp Boys set up

This January 28 – 29, and then February 4-5, you can come eat world-class barbecue with Swamp Boys at 2 of the best events in the state.

The Lakeland Pigfest happens Friday, Jan. 28 from 5:00pm – 10:00pm, and again Saturday from 10:00am – 5:00pm. Parking is free and entry is $5, 12 and under are free. Buy Pig Bucks at the booth when you get there, then come find us. 20% of all of our sales will will go to help local charities.

Winter Haven’s Smoke on the Water is Friday and Saturday, Feb. 4 – 5. This is a major fundraiser for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Polk County, and 20% of our sales will be going back to the B&G Clubs. Admission on Friday is $10 and is more adult oriented with a party vibe. Saturday is for the family, with admission just $2 and kids 10 and under are free.

Insider tip for both events – come early. We cook all of our bbq fresh onsite, and we will run out before closing time. Also, we can package your food to-go, so you can enjoy it later. And check out this article from 3 years ago on How to Make the Most of a BBQ Contest as a Spectator.
