The application for the SCBA FREE cook school is now available. Please remember that teams must meet the eligibility requirements to attend and attendance is limited to the first 20 Pitmasters to respond by US Post Mark on their physically mailed application.

The class will be held January 11, 2020 at the Pineview Ruritan Clubhouse, 1130 Methodist Park Rd. West Columbia, SC 29169 and will be taught by Gene Culbertson of Backwoods Bar-B-Que and Jason Singletary of Smoke Central.

1. Must be a SCBA member in good standings.
2. Must cook a minimum of 3 SCBA contests in 2019.
3. Must not have placed in the top 3 in the “main meat” or 1st place in the rib category.
4. May not attend SCBA Free School more than twice.

The application process will begin December 1, 2019. The class will be limited to the first 20 Pitmasters to request and respond via US Post Mark on their physically mailed application.
All applications must be mailed via the USPS and no electronic applications will be accepted. We cannot hold any class spots in advance.
As in years past, only one Pitmaster per team may register until we gauge the turn out. We are happy to allow additional team members to attend, we just want to make sure we have the space and allow as many teams to attend as possible.
