BARBECUE SALES: BBQ at the Summit is a non cash event. Our sale of tickets acts as a fundraiser for the Summit County Rotary Club and also provides a way for selling teams and vendors to recoup some of their costs. From each $1.00 ticket sold, the team/vendor receives $.80 and Rotary $.20. At last year’s event the top seller turned in 20,500 tickets. The average sales was approximately 4000 tickets.
SELLING OF BBQ: FRIDAY 12PM-9PM AND SATURDAY 10AM-7PM (teams may sign up to cease selling at 2pm on Saturday)
FOOD AND GOODS MAY BE SOLD TO THE PUBLIC WITH TICKETS ONLY. TEAMS AND VENDORS MUST NOT ACCEPT CASH.
All vendors, including contestants, who sell any food including plates of BBQ and side dishes must take tickets instead of cash. You will receive 80% of proceeds from your booth after tax.
Selling teams and vendors will be supplied with a container, at registration, for collecting tickets and a form to complete that must be turned in with your tickets on Saturday by 7:30pm. This form provides the opportunity for you to provide your count of your tickets. Your tickets will be weighed and/or recounted by the Rotary Club and a check for 80% minus applicable sales taxes will be mailed to you within 2 weeks.
Several ticket booths will be located throughout the site. Please refer to the map for locations. Teams and vendors must not accept cash from the public. You are encouraged to sell t-shirts, sauces and other goods, but you are required to take tickets for all items.
MEAT INSPECTION AND HEALTH DEPARTMENT REGULATIONS: All meats cooked at the contest must be USDA-approved meat or have been purchased from a USDA inspected source. Cookers must be able to show proof of this.
Meat inspections will be conducted from 9am-noon on Friday; the contest representative will certify that the meat begins raw. Meat for selling does not need to begin raw, you may bring pre-cooked or pre-marinated meats.
