Grand Champions!!! Live Oak, FL!!!
July 28, 2010BBQ Friends and fans, this was one for the books!!! Team Unknown BBQ was awarded Grand Champion out of 41 of the most grizzled and well seasoned BBQ teams in the North American south.The following is a play by play account of how the events unfolded.(Sat.)= First up to bat was Papa Clarks chicken turn in. Chicken has always been the teams achilles heel but it was not to be in Live Oak. Papa Clark with his over 50 years of BBQ expierience(Yep,you read it right. Papa Clarks been cookin’ Q since he was 5 years old!) gut hooked the judges with supeirior appearance,taste,and tenderness to take the 1st place check. Next up to bat was the Rib turn in. To say that the Gen. Outlaw Leroy Pointer and head cook JW make the best Ribs in the upper hemisphere is a tragic understatement. The proof was in the puddin’ as they say and Team Unknown secured yet another 1st place check. Third in the lineup was JW and Leroys chart toppin’ pork butts. Although the teams Pork did not take top prize, it took home a (respectable,admirable,noteworthy,ect…) 5th place in spite of JW and Leroys apparent lack of attention to detail. Both JW and Leroy were brought up on formal charges due to this embarrasment. The clean up hitter and 4th at the plate was King Dorseys brisket fresh off the plane from France. Superior genetics and a steady diet of Merlot and Snails gives this exotic brisket a winning taste,texture,and mouthfeel. The judges agreed and Team Unknown was awarded yet another first place check! Winning three out of four catagories and taking home the Grand Championship,an invitation to the American Royal BBQ comp. in Kansas City, and a possible draw for the superbowl of BBQ’s the Jack Daniels invitational in Lynchburg Tenn. is something well never forget!!! Thank yous go out to everyone who congratulated us on our win, Rob Bagby(BBQ Wizard)from Swamp Boys BBQ school, Dana and Janet Hillis, Damon Wooley for putting on a killer contest, and everyone in the suwanne river campground for puttin’ up with Dorseys history of classic country music. Raise Hell!!!!
