We had a great time at Smoke on the Water BBQ Competition & Benefit! They ended up raising $45,000 for Eli! Definitely a special thing to be apart of. We had an overall smooth cook, the rain didn’t hold us down!
Here’s how we did..

Chicken🐔: 7th Place (didn’t even take a picture of the box😵‍💫)
Ribs🍖: 1st Place
Pork🐷: 3rd Place
Brisket🐮: 1st Place
Overall: RGC with a 704.549!

Congratulations to Smokey Bros Barbecue on GC and to everyone else who heard their name called!

We have Labor Day weekend off then head to Meat Inferno for Lucs birthday!
Thank you to our sponsors for their continued support this year!

Well we’re back home from the long haul to Emmetsburg for their St. Pats Annual BBQ Contest. We had an overall great time, Stephanie and her crew put on a heck of a competition! Last night we enjoyed pocket cheese burgers from Shiggin' & Grinnin' Championship BBQ Team and today we enjoyed B & G from Wags Backwoods BBQ and awesome banana bars from Hot Daddy's BBQ!
We felt off all day and it definitely showed. Today’s competition didn’t go our way and that’s okay. Highlight of our day was a 8th place call in pork. Looking at our other scores, they are pretty close to our previous weeks, we just need to execute a little better.

Short turn around as we head to for Cruisin’ & BBQin’ in Hampton, IA to finish out our 4 week stretch.

Congratulations to Nectar of the Hogs BBQ on GC and Big Racks BBQ on RGC!

As always we can’t thank our sponsors enough for their support this year!!
