Unlike most competitions, they do allow _any_ heat source, but the deadline to enter as a competitor has passed.

Ya, I noticed that after I posted it.
But it is a Charity Event, with net proceeds of the Festival donated to: Christian Learning Center and Operation Care.
So its not too late to go to it and have some good food and help out.
