Tim's Tailgate BBQ Team was started by Tim and Kim Pregler in 2009 to cook great BBQ, perform some charitable works and HAVE FUN!! We have had some great family times and made some great friends along the way.

I learned the basics of outdoor cooking from my Dad back in Jenks Oklahoma on a Hasty Bake.  And to this day I still prefer to cook on Hasty Bakes and they have brought home the hardware for me.

Please enjoy our site and feel free to explore.  And please contact us with any questions or comments.

The 8^th Annual BBQ Cook Off, benefiting Camp Craig Allen, will see a change of venue and date for 2014. This year’s BBQ Cook Off events will be held at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. This is the largest amateur BBQ Cook Off Benefit in North Texas and the change is a great opportunity for the Frisco community to really get behind a grass roots project, with the intent to build Camp Craig Allen in Frisco. The event is scheduled for October 3-4, 2014, in the Corolla Red lot. Friday night is VIP night with All You Can Eat BBQ, live bands, silent auction and charity casino!!
