Scuffletown Smokers BBQ Team

03/23/2026

It’s been a whirlwind of a week or so as we wrap up the 10th Annual Smoke on the Shores in Lebanon, TN. We were out of town on a work trip until Friday, flew to Nashville from California and went to work on Friday night getting everything prepped for Saturday’s cook.

It’s been a long time since we’ve had this happen but we just couldn’t pull together the type of cook that we normally do and finished 69th out of 125. Although we didn’t have a lot to celebrate this weekend, many of our close friends did! Huge congrats to Razorracks BBQ on Grand Champion, Kith n Kin on RGC, Blue Chip BBQ on 3rd and my best friend since 7th Grade, Pooh Bear BBQ on 5th place overall.

Special thanks to Uncle Stan for driving our rig down on Friday and Chris and Tina Ransom Howton for driving back to Indiana for me! It’s Spring Break, so we are off to Florida the rest of the week! I’ll eventually make it back home but for now, I’m blessed with an amazing career, bbq journey, family and friends.

We will be back on the BBQ trail in May! Thanks to our sponsors!

The 36th Annual Jack Daniel’s World Invitational is in the books! Our goal was to defend our title but we had another incredible showing with a 3rd place overall finish out of 90 teams from across the globe! This is a magical event and we were honored to be a part of it for a 2nd time. We had a solid cook and the judges agreed! Here’s how we fared:

3rd Place Chicken Miller Amish Country Poultry
33rd Place Ribs Korte Meats Competition Bbq compart
27th Place Pork
12th Place Brisket Kevin Green

Good enough for 3rd Overall with a 703.44!

Congrats to Kings Bbq on GC and Boggs Hog on RGC!

Thanks to all our our sponsors. We deal with the best in BBQ!
