I received a note from the fine folks over at homecookingstar alerting me to the fact that they are currently running an interesting web-based reality show that focuses on.......wait for it..........almost here.......BBQ sauce. The basic premise of the show is that they will select 100 original sauces from across the country and have them compete against each other. It appears that you have to garner local support to advance in the competition, which culminates with a cook off. Submissions are accepted by Twitter. The first webisode runs in June. The winner gets a deal to produce and mass market their original sauce. I'm a little thrown off by the over-produced demo video, but I really am interested in whether these guys can make this contest work. It kinda reminds me of the Project Greenlight premise of anyone could possibly make the next great movie, or in this case BBQ sauce. So, if you think you've got the goods, by all means go ahead and submit your recipe. And if you are in GA, please make sure to let me know so we can start a local campaign to bring the title home.
100 BBQ Sauces? Seems ambitious. I like BBQ Sauce and all, but I'm not so into reality "competition" shows.. Tell me who wins!
On the other hand, maybe I can't wait for weeks of crying, nametags and Really Bad Sauces That We Can All Laugh At Because They Asked For It By Being On TV!
