Had a wonderful time at the SD BBQ Championships. We did our first KCBS competition there four years ago. Our goal was to be better, and be the best we could be for the Lord, and I believe He has allowed us to do that. We had a solid cook landing a 4th place chicken call (best chicken we have ever cooked), and ended up 8th overall out of some world class teams. Thankful for my wife and daughter being great help!!! Was a blessing to see some of our BBQ friends!!!

🐓 174.8572 - 4th
🐖 169.9772 - 35th
🐷 173.1200 - 18th
🐮 174.2628 - 11th
🏆 690.2172 - 8th Overall

Chastity and I made our way to Fargo, North Dakota this weekend, and had a tremendous time at the ND BBQ CHAMPIONSHIPS!!! Thankful for the help from a true pit master, Kevin Huber. I honestly don’t know if the cook could have went any smoother, and we were not disappointed with a single turn in. We took 7th in pork, and finished with a 10th overall against 74 of the best teams from all across the country. I started doing competition BBQ not because I thought I was a good cook, but definitely wanted to be. I wanted to be the best for the Lord, and today He let me give him the best we have ever done. Congratulations to Blaine and Porky Butts for their Grand Championship, and Six Butts BBQ on the RGC. We only signed up for two competitions this year. So, can’t complain about today, and will look forward to September. Thank you for following along with Cross Cut BBQ!!!

🐓 - 30th Chicken - 170.2628
🐖 - 16th Ribs - 172.5600
🐷 - 7th Pork - 177.1428
🐮 - 30th Brisket (🤷🏻‍♂️) - 167.9656
10th Overall - 687.9312

We picked up our first smoker for Cross Cut BBQ four years ago today. I had a friend say, “I’m going to call that smoker The Five Thousand, and pray God will feed five thousand people through it.” God has definitely done “exceeding abundantly above” anything we could imagine through Cross Cut BBQ!!! Thankful to be serving the God of Ephesians 3:20-21!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

After serving thousands of meals through disaster relief, and a lot of cooking last year, the cooker was looking a little rough, and had developed a crack in the fire box. THANK YOU Mark Hillman and the wonderful team at American BBQ Systems for refurbishing our cooker!!! It looks AMAZING!!! Excited to see how God will allow us to use it this summer!!!

Thought this was a blessing and pretty interesting. My sweet wife and teammate sent me a message today saying she saw a list of KCBS Team Of The Year rankings for teams that did five or fewer contests. There were 1,139 teams listed, and this is where Cross Cut BBQ ended. I believe the Lord allowed us to have a great year…
45 chicken
45 ribs
16 pork
63 brisket
45th Overall
Note: Thank you Korte Competition Meats for making this year much easier; especially with brisket and ribs.

We believed God wanted us to purchase this trailer three years ago. We could never have dreamed how much God would use it, and how many thousands of people would be helped through some of the darkest days of their life. Thankful you can trust the leadership of the Lord, even when it makes absolutely no sense to us. What A God!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
