Bethel Smokers Takes Grand at Jekyll Island BBQ Beach Bash

Bethel Smokers Takes Grand at Jekyll Island BBQ Beach Bash

Grand Champion – Bethel Smokers

 

 

The Georgia Barbecue Association traveled to Jekyll Island, GA for the first contest of 2014. The Brunswick Lions Club hosted the event & the Golden Isles turned out in record numberst. At one point Saturday, traffic was backed up for miles on the causeway leading to the beach front contest & festival site.

Mr Joe Wright, Pitmaster of Bethel Smokers, made finals in both Pork & Ribs, but it was his final round Pork entry that scored a 599 out of a possible 600 points that got the last call of the day. Inside sources tell us that the secret to the team’s success is all in the shoes.

Sauced Hogs Smoke Shack came to Jekyll Island short handed, but Clint & Mandy Britton were up to the challenge.  The husband & wife team made finals in Loin along with fifty place finishes in both Pork & Ribs to capture the Reserve Grand Championship.

In Pork Loin, 29 Barbecue, cooking in their first GBA contest, grabbed first place honors.  Legal Smoke took second place with Sauced Hogs Smoke Shack in third.  Smoke Risin’ BBQ Joint came in fourth with Fiddler’s BBQ in fifth place.

 

Bethel Smokers topped the field in the Pulled Pork category.  Dixie Que was the runner up.  Old Henry’s BBQ made finals for the first time in a GBA contest & took home third place.  There was a tie for fourth place between 29 Barbecue and Sauced Hogs Smoke Shack.  It went to the 4th level before 29 Barbecue won the tiebreaker.

 

Smoke Risin’ BBQ Joint from Blackshear had the best Ribs entry of the day. Legal Smoke BBQ took second place. Bethel Smokers captured third with Fiddler’s BBQ taking fourth place. Sauced Hogs Smoke Shack finished in fifth place just a half point ahead of Naked Dave’s BBQ.
