Has anyone ever tried any of their food?

I liked the first season. The way they can do it, is because competition only helps them to charge more for the real money maker.... catering. Most all of the big boys do catering. They also have BBQ sauces, smokers, etc that they get money from as well. Winning competitions just allow them to charge more.
Cooking for competition and cooking for home eating are two different worlds entirely.
