| The FBA is actively looking for members who are passionate about BBQ in Florida. Are you a competitive cook team or a creative backyard cook wanting to compete? We are the place for you. Are you interested in learning to judge a professional Bar B Que contest? We are the place for you. Do enjoy having fun and socializing with people who share your common BBQ interest? We are the place for you. Do you work with our youth in High School BBQ programs? We are the place for you. Use the menu to visit the “Join Us” dialog to select the membership level that works for you.
