Most people learn BBQ by trial and error. This class skips the error part.
The JDQ Chicken and Ribs BBQ Cooking Class brings two experienced competition pitmasters — Josh DeWitt and Jeremy Williams — together for a hands-on, three-hour deep dive into what it actually takes to cook St. Louis-style ribs and KCBS-style chicken thighs the right way. Whether you're curious about competition BBQ or just want to stop guessing on cook days, this is the class that closes the gap.
Josh and Jeremy walk you through everything from meat selection and rub application to fuel choice, smoker behavior, and finishing your proteins with the kind of tenderness and bark that makes people ask for your secret. You'll sample the finished product — because understanding flavor and texture is just as important as understanding the process. Pair what you learn here with the right rubs and sauces and you'll be dialed in from prep to plate.
This isn't a passive demo. You get real answers, real technique, and one-on-one access to both instructors after class ends — because good learning doesn't stop when the smoker shuts down.

How do I pick the right rub for what I'm cooking?
How do I pick the right rub for what I'm cooking?
Start with the protein. Beef loves coarse, pepper-forward rubs. Pork and chicken take well to sweeter, sugar-based blends. Fish and veggies want something lighter. Every product page tells you what the rub was built for, and if you're stuck between two, ask us. We cook with this stuff every weekend.
How long do rubs and sauces stay good?
How long do rubs and sauces stay good?
Unopened, most rubs hold peak flavor for about a year and sauces until the date on the bottle. Once opened, keep rubs sealed away from heat and humidity (not on the shelf above the grill) and refrigerate sauces after opening. If it still smells strong, it still cooks strong.
What if a flavor isn't what I expected?
What if a flavor isn't what I expected?
Give it a second shot before you shelve it. Rubs behave differently depending on the protein, the heat, and how heavy you go. A blend that's just okay on chicken is often unbelievable on pork ribs, and most sauces open up when they're brushed on during the last few minutes instead of after. If you tell us what you cooked and how, we'll tell you how to get the most out of the bottle you've got.
