Hi do you think you could direct me to a event list?
Was in your neck of the woods going to vacation in Florida, stopped in Macon & sampled the BBQ at Sonny’s, Georgia Bob’s & JL’s. Sonny’s beat them hands down & the other 2 need your help!!! JL’s was the worst so you should bring them along with you to an event or get in an ambulance with your smoker in tow! 911 baby!
Yours truly,

Bill I mentioned a week or so again that we were struggling with chicken. Well this week Brandin’ Iron BBQ took the next step. We competed in the Washingon, MO. Main Street BBQ and Blues contest and walked out with a 4th Place Chicken, 6th Place Ribs, 3rd Place Pork and a 3rd place overall. And while we did pretty well, the chicken by far was the most rewarding. Obviously your competition secrets book is worth the $$.
