| Back at the Jack two years in a row. Hard to put in words how much of an honor it is, but...the experience is unbelievable! The trip was fantastic. The contest was exceptional. The team worked together like a machine. The food we turned into the judges was good enough to win...but this is the Jack, Jack.
The big news was being there. Spending time with some great folks from great teams. Walking in the team parade. Enjoying the fabulous weather. And a top shelf contest was capped off with Dizzy Pig winning a 5th place trophy jug for our BBQ Sauce! Keep your eyes peeled for an award winning sauce on the market!

Not much else to say except that the Jack lived up to it's billing as the ultimate honor in the BBQ competition world.

Not far from Lynchburg, just outside a town called Winchester, a nicely maintained old gas station welcomes visitors to the town. |

The site was staring to come together pretty quickly. |

Our Dizzy Pig signature Tee Shirt gets a new signature from fellow competitior Mike Davis. His team, Lotta Bull BBQ is probably the hottest team in the country right now. |
