"I
attended a Rhino boot camp last summer in Illinois. You are in
the middle of a real competition in real time. You see
everything that is done and how it is done. Jim will answer any
and all questions and allow some "hands on" as well. No
secrets. In addition he is open, friendly, knowledgeable,
experienced, a proven winner and entertaining. You will start
the day before in preparation. You will sleep on site if you
desire or leave and come back the morning of the competition,
your choice. You will get value for your investment. If
competition is your goal, this is not only an excellent venue,
it is the only one of its kind that I know of. He will even
feed you along the way but bring your own beer!" ~

"As one
of the recruits in the Bandit BBQ Team, I wanted to thank Jim
Rhino and all the other recruits for an educational and exciting
experience. I have competed in BBQ events in the past and have
never been called in a single category. The BBQ Bandit team
was called in all four competition categories yesterday and we
finished fourth overall. We were even called in the tailgate
competition. When I reviewed what I had learned with my family
last night, my 15 year old summarized it up pretty well. "It
looks like we only knew about 80% of what we were doing in the
past competitions." Now that we know how to be competitive, we
can't wait for the next competition. Thanks again Jim." ~ Steve

"As
newbies in the world of competition, Cheri and I learned so much
Jim, for putting this boot camp on. If anyone is thinking of
getting into this, find someone that is doing a boot camp, hope
that person is half as good at the boot camp as Jim is, you will
learn a lot. When we all started we were all a bit reserved but
as time went on we all came together. Thank you to John, Dave,
Double Dee, George, Jeremy, Charlie, and Tony, the other
recruits.
A big THANK YOU to Jerry, letting us use your smoker. If Jim
plans on coming back to the Phoenix area for an event, I'll be
there...Thanks, again to everyone" ~ Bob & Cheri S. (Rock

"Just
want to say what a pleasure it was to meet all the people that
came to Rhino's Boot Camp. We met as strangers and all left as
friends. That is what BBQ is all about. Hope to see you down the
road especially at a competition. If I'm ever competing and you
see me. You better stop in and at least say Hi." Jerry H. (Rock

"Jim,
as an outsider looking in, I have to say, you and your BBQ Boot
Camp were a HUGE Success. I just wish I had more free time so I
could have joined you. I really enjoyed seeing you run it,
you had so much positive energy and really showed all your Boot
Camp Crew what BBQ Comps are all about. HAVING FUN!!! I
was excited to see all of you at the Midnight Appetizer Party.
It's something we do here in Arizona and are very proud of. BBQ
comps are all about having fun, making new friends and enjoying
the art of BBQing. You certainly showed that (to) your Boot
Camp crew and I can see that they are all hooked now. I
truly look forward to seeing them all out at future events and
hope that we see you back out here again soon. You have a
standing invitation to any of our events. Great finally
meeting you. Look forward to seeing you again soon." ~ Mike

"I had a great
time. I'm still bragging to my friends and neighbors! They are
so lucky to know a Bar-B-Q Champion like me. I have told them
the Team we had was like the Navy Seals are to the ROTC. I know
the competition was only yesterday but I couldn't wait to start
grilling. I made chicken today for wifie and I. I
figured six pieces would be enough, she ate four! so it looks
like we have just permanently decided to cook chicken once a
week. I also went by the local Bar-B-Q store (BBQ
Island, Inc.) to
look at smokers." ~ Tony E. (Rock
Springs, AZ Contest - 01/29/11) (He
ended up buying a smoker and breaking it in properly THAT
night!)
"I want
to take the time to thank you for everything this weekend. I know
both Cheri and I learned so much more than we thought we would.
I am very proud to have met you and help you with this
competition and the wins. I know I said it before we left, but
if you find yourself in this neck of the woods, please feel free
to give us a call, and if you need help in another competition,
keep us in mind. Again, this weekend was a blast and I know all
of us learned a lot and had even more fun. Thanks again, we will
stay in touch." ~ Bob & Cheri S. (Rock
