great judges, great turnout, and the BBQ was not bad either. Special thanks to Sam Long and her crew of volunteers. Hard to believe she has only been on the job 4 months. She went out of the way to see all our needs were met and was a joy to work with.
More thanks to our judges and to those who volunteered for other duties. Doc and Cindy Miller served as Table Captains, with Tom Sims and Steve Meadows as their assistants. George Dowling handled the calculations and helped with the running. Glenn Hollis handled the box distribution table. Don Adkins was indispensable at the receiving table (Marcia taught him well). He also served as photographer. I cannot say enough about Brian Snavely, unofficial Assistant Marshal, Assistant Calculator, score auditor, coach, encourager, and all around good guy.
Finally, congratulations to all who got the call, People’s Choice Black Hat BBQ; 3rd place ribs Casual Smokers; 2nd place ribs Men At Work BBQ, and 1st place ribs Sadie Beth Barbeque Company.
Winners in the Butts competition were 4th place Casual Smokers, 3rd place Monkey Bottom Boys, 2nd place Sadie Beth Barbeque Company and 1st place Men At Work BBQ. Congratulations to all who participated, we couldn’t have done it without you.
Gene Benfield
