in South Africa. After a lifetime
of backyard BBQ he started winning contests in 2002 and turned pro in 2003.
His experience includes founding and running Teddy Bear’s BBQ restaurant and

Hi Konrad,
The BBQ class was unbelievable. I always
wondered if those classes would be worth the money. Well, your
class is worth what you charge and then some. I have finally
smoked a decent set of ribs! I was the toast of the neighborhood
after taking these babies off the rack. Fall off the bone tender
and juicy, just like you taught us in class.
Thanks again for the knowledge of a lifetime!!

Konrad,
My buddy and I took your BBQ class about a year and a half
ago in San Diego. We flew out from Phoenix. I come from a
proud Central / West Texas BBQ family but could never quite
get it right. Well, almost two years later and a couple tons
of meat later I am the Pit Master of Smokin Aces BBQ
www.smokinacesbarbeque.com I provide BBQ to a number
local caterers and special events. It is a wonderful thing
to put smiles on peoples faces.
Thanks for everything.

Konrad,
Thanks for friending me on Facebook.
I've wanted to pass along my warmest appreciation since I took your
class three years ago. I had known barbecue before then, but what
you taught me opened up a vast landscape of new adventure. I've
practiced with my Weber Bullet nearly every weekend, and have tried
a few alternative recipes for rubs and sauce that I've found in
cookbooks by several famous pitmasters.
I mean this in all sincerity: The recipes I got from you cannot be
improved or compared. The sauce is so good it doesn't need meat, and
the relatively simple ingredients in the rub are just better than
anything else I've tried.
My days of experimenting with alternatives is now over; I just can't
improve on what you gave me. I've wanted to thank you again for the
knowledge and skill you put into your craft.

Comments on the
Texas BBQ Forum about March 6th and 7th, 2010
Hi Konrad, it was a real pleasure to meet you and take your class. Last
weekend my wife bought me a new 22" WSM and I really love it. On Sunday
I cooked up a great brisket, some baby backs and a slab of spare ribs.
My son comes over every Sunday for dinner and this time he said in all
the years I have made barbeque this was the first time that it tasted
like it was made in a restaraunt. For him that is a real compliment! I
sent him home with 1/2 a brisket and most of the ribs and 1/2 of your
lemon cake.
Thanks again, I got way more than my money's worth.
Cheers!
