BBQ Guru finishing 2013 strong with Huntspoint.com competition-grade meat

NEW YORK - Oct. 27, 2013 - PRLog -- Following up on their success at Que by the Sea (1st  Chef’s Choice and 3rd overall), Atlantic City (Reserve Champion, #1 in Brisket), and at the Sam’s Club National Championship (17th overall, 3rd in ribs, 7th in brisket), the BBQ Guru team is hoping to round out the season with a high finish at the World Food Championships, to be held November 7-10 in Las Vegas.

The BBQ Guru/Huntspoint.com partnership has been fruitful for both parties in just its first year, with particularly good results from Huntspoint.com’s custom Hatfield ribs (http://bbqguru.huntspoint.com/index.php/ribs-hatfield-st-louis-style-competition-ribs.html) and competition-grade Wagyu brisket (http://bbqguru.huntspoint.com/index.php/brisket.html). Other BBQ teams  which are supplied by BBQGuru.Huntspoint.com - such as Local Smoke, Team Beerbeque, Smokin Scullies BBQ, and Jacked Up BBQ have also found success on the circuit this year, but it’s in Las Vegas that Huntspoint.com meats will truly be put to the test—a test that the BBQ Guru’s “BBQ Bob” Trudnak feels is up to his team, since the meats have proven their value already this year.

“Every team brings meat that they feel will work, and to get to this level, we’re all very good at selecting great meat,” says Trudnak. “The difference we’ve found with Huntpoint.com is in the quality and consistency of each order. We don’t have to worry about, say, a batch of brisket or ribs being different from the one before—we can be sure of the flavor, texture, fat content, and all the other factors are going to be just right, and just how we expect them to be, each time.”

Keeping things consistently great is a point of pride for Lovely Love, CEO of Huntspoint.com.

“As a supplier to top teams like BBQ Guru, we can pick from any number of suppliers who would like to see their products win in competition,” says Love. “But there’s some great meat out there that just isn’t ready for high-level competition for one reason or another. We listen to our teams, and if it isn’t right for them, you won’t see it on Huntspoint.com. All our meat is competition-ready and competition-proven.”

BBQ Bob agrees, and adds a cautionary note.

“We’ve seen other teams experiment with their suppliers, thinking that if they spend three times more they’ll do three times better, but usually it doesn’t work out,” he says. “Competitions aren’t the place to try something new, especially not for us, given that we’re representing the BBQ Guru brand. We wouldn’t have partnered with Huntpoint.com if we hadn’t tried their products out in practice, liked the results, and then gone on to win in competitions.”
