Top pitmasters from around the world come to Kansas City for a chance to win $15,000 and the grand champion trophy at the American Royal World Series of Barbecue each year — and every aspect of their smoked meats are up for critique. Not only will the judges analyze the taste of each cut of brisket, but also its tenderness, presentation, the way it “hangs”, and so much more. #competitionbbq #bbq #barbecue #brisket
