Are you sure about Sconyers, I use to to live in Augusta, worst BBQ I ever had.  People talk about it like its real good but believe you me, its in the Alpo taste level.

Earl,

you asked about bbq contests in southern az. the only '96 az contest i'm aware of was a rib selling event in phoenix about april. next closest would probably be southern ca, or west tx.

steve friedkin (texaz grill in phoenix) did win a brisket award at terlingua, tx, and has a whole bar/restaurant full of funky texas chili/bbq stuff. i'm sure if you stop by, he'd talk bbq. all of this recent smoked prime rib discussion reminded me of steve's place, as that is one of their monday specialties.

how about bbq places in tucson? any you'd suggest?

Well Bob, nice name, the best place for real Q in
the area you named is a place called Babba's,
located in Falls Church.  Just dial 411 for the address.
