California is the new BBQ Mecca thanks to Harry Soo

A few weeks ago my good friend Harry Soo and Marc Tung from the  Slap Yo Daddy BBQ  Team took 2nd place overall at the Great American BBQ contest held in Bonner Springs, Kansas.  This is one of the country’s largest profession BBQ competitions, and Harry and Marc made the 1500+ mile trip and were the only team to represent the State of California.   At the invitational portion of the contest Harry and marc placed 25th overall out of 44 teams.   The following day at the open portion of the contest, Harry, being the incredible chef that he is changed his game plan, and took 2 place (or Reserve Grand Champion) out of 166 teams.  A team from California goes out to the BBQ mecca and shows them whats up.   Harry is one of the most incredible chefs out here in California.  I predict if not this year, then in the next 2 years Harry will win the prestigious World Championship Jack Daniels Contest held in Lynchburg Tennessee.

Harry Soo I salute you.  You are the king.  Long Live the King

  1. Gary, my BBQ brother you’re the man! We’re living the fairy tale story of two California tofu backyarders with Weber grills who take on the legendary pros in Kansas City and live to tell!
