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.

This letter dated November 22nd, 2007 from David L. a graduate
of the Institute in response to our Thanksgiving Newsletter.
Hi Konrad,
Nice to hear from you. I have
enjoyed my new BBQ skills more than I ever anticipated. I
took your class last March and have been a BBQing fool ever
since. I've either grilled or BBQ'd every weekend we've
been home since then. I bought a Weber Smokey Mountain
cooker soon after the class and just love it. I have smoked
spare ribs, baby back ribs, pork loins, pork roasts, pork
butts, beef roasts, whole turkeys, whole chickens and
Cornish game hens. I did a whole turkey today for our
family Thanksgiving dinner. I first brined it for a few
days, let it dry a day, then stuffed it with chunked onions,
oranges and celery. A little of your dry rub on the outside
and then into the smoker for 8 hours over mesquite. The
family loved it. As my family paid for my BBQ class fee as
a gift, they are most pleased at how it has paid off. Thank
you for starting me off in a whole new direction in my
outdoor cooking skills.
Happy Holidays to you and
Phyllis,

Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger
