Hello everyone. It's so good to finally get a chance to update you on our progress now that our competition year is coming to an end. Kind of been a tough year for our team. With my father passing away and Jan having major surgery this year we have not been able to make very many competitions this year. As for the ones we did. Well we never got one top ten call. But we only competed in five events this year. We started 2015 off in Miami, OK. Then did Wyandotte, MI. after that we did make Jeffersonville, IN. Which I'm sure will become a must attend contest for many teams in the future. As you can see from the above picture it was great. Then we did Marne, MI.and The Windy City BBQ Classic in Chicago. Which was another premier event to attend in the future. We turned in our top scores ever in all four meat categories but no call. There were a lot of great teams there. All and all I learned a lot this past year and expect to come out swinging for the fences in 2016. Stay tuned.
The Greatest Man I Ever Knew

MIAMI, OK 2015
Well friends this one is in the books for this year. We had a great time. Weather was great and so was the hospitality (as always in Miami). Out of I think 84 teams we came in way down the ladder. But also Scored our personal bests both days in Ribs, Pork and overall scores so it was pretty good for us. Looking forward to our next event in Wyandotte, MI. May 15th & 16th. We will be in the city hall parking lot at 3200 Biddle street. Stop by for some goodies if your in the area
