Ok. It's been a while since I posted on here. But I want to let you know that I just finished my 1st BBQ Competition called the B Street Rib Off in North Little Rock, Arkansas.
It was a benefit for the American Cancer Society. The 25 teams helped to raise over $11,000 for the Cancer Society.
My team, the Southern Gentlemen Cooking Team, consisting of my son, Dr. John and myself, placed in all 3 categories:
1. 3rd in ribs.
2. 2nd in the People's Choice category
3. 1st in chicken

It was a lot of fun and hard work! The People's Choice category I should have won with my bacon wrapped pickled watermelon rind, but I ran out of product after grilling 5 pounds of bacon wrapped around pickled watermelon rind. (Yeah, I know it sounds weird but it IS absolutely awesome)!

Anyway, I enjoyed it and am looking forward to more competitions!

Can u share the recipe for the bacon wrapped pickled melon rinds? Sounds intriguing to say the least
 
What Jerzey Devil said ... Sounds like something I gotta try, and I'm guessing I won't find it on any menus locally.

Congrats on a great outing!
 
Gent,My ex in San Diego got on a plane a few years ago flew into Hog country rented a car and drove out into the deep sticks to spend a boiling summer afternoon on the porch of some old black man who apparently makes the most killer ribs on earth. I am sure there is more than 1 guy who fits that description down there but she said that what she consumed that day was what the word perfection is all about.Then she flew back home after a glass of sweet tea.. This is why I miss her so damned much. I would have been right with a face full of rub.
 
We need a recount!!! If history is any indication--and it should be--those ribs should be 1st!!!

She might have been to see Mr. James Jones of Marianna, Ark. He was a 2012 recipient of the James Beard Foundation award. I don't know how to do a link but CBS news did a story on him back in 2012. He has basically a 1 man operation at his 1 table restaurant. He had never heard of the award that he won and had also never been on an airplane when the Foundation flew him and his wife to New York.

AND, I have not been to his place either. You have to get there early to get any of his Q.

That is the man. She just texted me and said it was well worth the trip and she would do it again.

Well if she does, please let me know and I will take her there personally. I have a friend that takes some of his clients on a 3 day BBQ tour around Arkansas and Tennessee. I may not be able to do that, but I can definetly make it to Marriana .
 
BBQ excellence comes only from unlikely places. The best BBQ I ever had was at some ratty looking roadside place in the Everglades in the late '90s. Didn't even have a menu. You were given a choice of "Ribs, Chicken or BBQ". They served fries with it. Your beverage options were Coke or Bud.
 
Nothing will ever beat the cafe in my Cousin Vinnie. They served. Breakfast. Lunch. Or Dinner..
