The Second Annual Old Friends BBQ Cook-Off in Bamberg, was held this past Friday and Saturday with 24 Cook Teams participating under perfect spring weather.
I would like to thank all the cookers and their team members who came out. Congratulations to all those who got a call. Doug Quinn of No Pig Left Behind, 1st Place in Butts, Jeff Smith of Smokin’ Stacks, 1st Place in Ribs and the winners of Friday night’s ATB, JT Handy for Chicken Wings and Jason Peterson of Razorbacks BBQ for Chili. Congratulations also go out to the Local 1st place winners, Old Rivals for Butts and Tobul BBQ-Cummulators for Ribs.
Thank you to all the Judges who came from near and far who offered their assistance. For those who could not attend, a special thank you for your calls and emails.
I would also like to acknowledge my volunteers who helped make the event run smoothly. Second time calculator Larry Stafford, who despite having two categories and an early awards ceremony, managed to get the job done and on time. Don Atkins who assisted with the receiving table and who was our official photographer. Table Captains Helen Hall, William Holladay, Justin Johnson and Tom Wattenbarger, Novice Instructors Mike Sexton and Brian Snavley and most importantly my Assistant Marshal, Ken Hilliard.
Ken and I are especially grateful to Mike Sexton for his assistance Friday night; we could not have done it without you.
Once again, thank you for helping to make Old Friends BBQ Cook- Off and my first event as an official SCBA Marshal a success.
Dawn you and your staff of SCBA judges did a great job as usual. Thanks for all you guys do! The awards right at 1pm was great also. So thanks to the calculators as well.
