My interest in BBQ goes far back to my younger days. In the last few years I have had aspirations of starting a mobile BBQ business. Without actual knowledge of the details of such a mobile enterprise or commercial kitchen equipment needed, I turned to this DVD/Book set. I saw a review bashing this set as "retarded" so I decided to share a less ignorant post. Since my purchase I have learned alot about commissaries, building a trailer, limitations, and techniques to the BBQ business. The videos are over an hour long a piece which was more than I expected. Out of over two hours, I would say there was about twenty minutes of information that did not interest me. The book gives a great deal more detais which is complimented by the DVDs. Overall, this set has given me more confidence and direction than I ever had just by being a BBQ connoisseure. It may not be the final push but it definately was a great jump start. Enjoy!

I bought the two videos and the accompanying book to research the potential of going into the concession business. This product, as well as the book "Food Booth", are the best information that I have been able to find. Purchasing this item is money well-spent, even if you are not specifically planning on selling BBQ.
There is a lot of good information in the videos and the book, and I am discovering that information is not that easy to find for the concession business. While the book and videos are aimed toward setting up a BBQ business, much of the information provided may be applied toward any concession business. I liked the openness and honesty of the information - things like if you're not making at least $500 per day, it's not worth it. I got the feeling that they really want to help people to get going in the business.
My one complaint is that I sometimes felt like the presentation was not polished, almost like it was a working draft that they decided to publish. This was especially true of the book, which contained some typos and grammatically incorrect sentences. However, in the grand scheme of things, that is minor. Don't let that deter you from buying this product if you want information regarding the concession business.

I ordered this set hoping that it would provide me some insight. I wasn't impressed with the quality of the product, the production value or the information provided. That being said - I think it would provide someone who had absolutely no knowledge about the food business, marketing, etc some guidance. It is pretty basic information and if it is my opinion you can receive a majority of the same information for free by visiting your local health department and online. I just didn't find that there was any new or "out of the box" ideas presented in this set. However, I would recommend for someone that needs the "basics".

Extremely basic info. Anyone who's serious about going into business for themselves will know pretty much all the info contained in this DVD. Another this that's hard to watch is this guy preparing his "bbq". The meats look like they get no rubs or love of any kind and his bbq sauces consist of mixing two off the shelf brands together. I ended up returning this.

The author does a great job from if you want building your own trailer to day to day operation . Even if you don't expect to bbq the information can be invaluable for a new start up. The dvd's are professional and well done.
Another great book a start up is Food Booth, The Entrepreneur's Complete Guide to the Food Concession Business

Firstly, this is obviously a home-made set. The book looks like it was printed and bound at someplace like Kinko's. The info was ok, but there wasn't much that I couldn't have figured out on my own very quickly. My last complaint is that this is a business set, therefore most people would be buying this to use in business, making it a business expense. However, whoever shipped this didn't seem to make that connection because they didn't include a receipt which is something useful when claiming business expenses on your tax forms.
Bottom line: If this had been half the price, I would have been much happier with this purchase. As it is, I feel like I paid way too much.

The information contained was basic and nothing that most people don't know on their own. Nothing in the information would help you make "serious" money as titled. Very disappointing, dated and does not hold your attention.
