Bubba’s BBQ-off: The fourth annual Bubba’s BBQ cook-off kicks off on May 24, so head on down and watch pros and laymen alike test their prowess putting flame to sausage, chicken, pork rib, beef, pulled/processed meat and mystery meat (not this kind we imagine). The winner will be determined by a panel of judges, including yours truly, so look for a bobble-headed “Wasian” guy. Not just a spectator sport, there’ll also be plenty of BBQ, beer and live music by Shanghai New Grasslands, to tide you over.
