After taking photos at two events so far, It’s clear to me that barbecue will be an increasingly popular corporate team-building event.

Rockin’ Ronnie Shewchuk builds a full day around the theme of a barbecue competition. Teams of 4 company colleagues work together — to attempt to out cook every other team. And win a trophy with a pig on top!

The slow cooking movement is booming in Calgary. Many grillers will be adding a smoker to their backyard soon. Rockin’ most often uses a Weber 2820 Smokey Mountain Cooker.
