Welcome to Our Barbeque

Welcome to the home page of the Award Winning Ribs Within BBQ Team based in Hillsborough, NJ.

RIBS WITHIN Invades Nashville!

2009 Started in a great manor as Ribs Within catered lunch at the legendary Sound Emporium recording studio, in Nashville, TN. Doug flew the BBQ from NJ to TN, to serve to singer Radney Foster, who was recording 2 songs for a new album. The lunch was sponsored by MPI - Music Producers Institute (www.musicpi.com). Also in attendance were Grammy winning producer Steve Fischell - director of MPI, award winning Engineer/Mixer Niko Bolas, producer Darrell Brown, and the staff and other attendees of MPI.

Then Doug went ot the Houston Rodeo and BBQ contest, hanging out with the legendary David Klose, of Klose Pits fame. The trip was really inspiring, and Doug came back with a renewed understanding of brisket.

Then Doug appeared in a foodie video, check it out Meatopia V: Baconalia Everybody loves BACON!

Finally we were ready to kick off our 2009 Season

2009 is our 7th season of KCBS competition and we are working on some issues that plagued us last year.

We started 2009 off at a Grilling Contest in Brooklyn, NY, with 19 teams. We took a 1st in Chicken,1st in Fish, 3rd in Pork and finished 3rd overall a half point behind Wildwood BBQ (Big Lou Elrose and Robbie Richter)

We started our KCBS 2009 off in Salisbury, MD, with an amazing 92 teams. While our cook overall was not great, our brisket problems from 2008 did not continue, as we finished 6th, our best showing in a long time.

Second was Green Lane, PA with 28 teams. Once again our brisket the star with a 4th place finish and 7th overall.

Third was The Art of BBQ in Atlantic City, NJ with 21 teams. Chicken (4th), ribs and brisket (both 5th) helped us to a 5th overall.

We did a Griller No Fire, Just Smoke in hometown Hillsborough, NJ with 11 teams, in some bad weather. Chicken was bad, but he ribs were good, and we took 1st place in Chefs Choice, which helped us to a Reserve Championship.

This past weekend was the 2009 NJ State Championship in Wildwood, NJ with 62 teams. We continued our brisket streak with a 4th place finish. Our pork was also good with a 10th place. But bad ribs broke our hearts and we finished a disappointing 24th overall.

Next up is Monmouth County Cookoff in Freehold, NJ. Where we square off against Wildwood winner FAT ANGEL and 3 time champ LO'n'Slow.

August heats up as we head off the Maine, New Palz, NY and New Holland, PA.

September brings us to Brigeton, NJ and Seaside Heights, NJ

Follow us on our tour around the Mid-Atlantic, and join the fun whenever you can.

We are on the hunt for more hardware!
