Never guess again about doneness. This module teaches you how to read the ribs and know the perfect moment to pull them from the smoker. Impress the judges instead of leaving points on the table.

Pork Perfected

Not sure why your pork box never hits? It’s probably because of tenderness. In this module, you’ll learn how to nail money muscle, pulled and chunks so every bite is flavorful, consistent and competition-ready.

Meet Your Instructor: Champion Pitmaster Christie Vanover

Christie, the head cook for Team Girls Can Grill, has competed in nearly 50 contests, earning 4 Grand Championships, 1 Reserve Grand Championship and more than 80 top 10 calls.

But it wasn’t always that way. In her early years, calls were rare and inconsistent. Through relentless practice, smart strategy and learning how to truly cook for the judges, Christie transformed her game.

Her biggest breakthrough? Earning a spot at The Jack Daniel’s World Championship Invitational Barbecue where she placed 5th in brisket among the best teams in the world.

Christie is also a certified BBQ judge who has judged prestigious events including the American Royal and The Jack. Her unique perspective as both a competitor and judge gives her inside knowledge of exactly what wins.

Now Christie is sharing her exact playbook so you can shortcut the learning curve, avoid costly mistakes and make the leap from “also competing” to consistently walking.

Results speak for themselves!

This is the recipe to use especially if you’re new to competition-style cooking. I did this in a small charity tournament…We took first place with this method, beating out a couple teams that actually compete in sanctioned events.

I really appreciate you going above and beyond so we can understand what the judges are looking for. Keep up the great work.

I followed your instructions to a T and won second place in an amateur barbecue competition last weekend here in Williamsburg, VA. The flavor and bite-through were perfect! Thanks for all the great advice!
