Memphis in May World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest

null

“The College of Pig Knowledge. The Granddaddy of Grills. The Largest Pork Barbecue Cooking Contest on the Planet. Three stuffed days of smoked heaven where contestants eat, sleep and live pig.

More than 90,000 pork lovers from around the globe Australia, Russia, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Estonia, Canada, France, Japan, New Zealand, Thailand and the United Kingdom gather together to testify about their special sauces, rubs, ribs, and whatnot in Pig-dom.

You’ll see funny faces, famous faces, and might end up having your face on one of these special reports on NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, Southern Living Network, PBS, A&E, TBS, Gourmet Magazine, Food & Wine, Martha Stewart Living TV, or one of many other media reports.”

Yours truly will be in attendance this Thursday for some fine barbecue sampling! I had to do some research on this, since this will be my first time attending.

Local codes prohibit teams from selling barbecue to the general public, but you can still get your fill by becoming a taste-testing judge! $3.00 gets you five different samples to choose from - and the best part, you can judge as many times as you want! All ballots count and the winner of the People’s Choice Contest will be announced on the final day! I will be a voting machine that day, no doubt!

    Gah, I could really go for some pork ribs right now! Too bad I don’t have the skills yet to drive “Slingblade” into Memphis yet.
