Should be fun.if you live within a 3 hr 15 min radius like me, you should stop by, drink some beer, sample some of the People's Choice barbecue, and maybe drop a few $$$ in the casino! It will be a Jack Daniel’s World Championship Invitational Barbecue (2017 draw) and a 2017 American Royal Invitational Qualifier, as well as a Team of the Year (ToY) event for both KCBS and the California BBQ Association (CBBQA). This contest has a big $31,000 CASH payout. So if nothing else, we know there will be plenty of beer to enjoy after the judging has been completed. and brewmaster Roland Allen, formerly of Sierra Nevada, with his award-winning beers.

It's obvious where the 'Hot Q's' part of the name comes from.the 'Cold Brews' part comes from the onsite Feather Falls Casino Brewing Co.

I heard from the folks who judged the inaugural event last year that it was a really nice contest, organized by Ben Lobenstein.he always puts on a good event.so despite the 3 hr 15 min drive one-way from my house in San Jose, I've decided to make the trek this year to check it out. All I know about Oroville is that it's home to Lake Oroville, the second largest reservoir in California, capable of holding 3,537,577 cubic acre-feet of water: This will be a new event for me.in fact I've never been to Oroville, located 70 miles north of Sacramento. I'll be judging barbecue at the 2nd Annual Hot Q's & Cold Brews BBQ at Feather Falls Casino in Oroville, CA on Saturday, September 17.
