Show the public what a great BBQ cook you are.  Join us for a people’s choice contest for cooking the best pork.

This event will be held at Universal Chevrolet and should be well attended. Restricted to 25 teams.  This is two contests in one. The public gets to vote and there is a blind judging portion. The judging public will be given one ticket each to vote. There will be “no stuffing the ballot box”.  So, if you are that guy or gal whom everyone says, “you cook the best “Q” in town” then come out and show off your stuff.
