We are proud to report that our mission of bringing championship BBQ into the backyards of all Americans took a big leap forward this weekend! We entered our first ever BBQ competition, and decided to try out our rub and recipes against some of the biggest and best BBQ’ers in the nation at the Safeway National Capital BBQ Battle – out of over 50 teams, we took 2nd place in the Best BBQ Sauce in the Nation competition and 4th Place for our Pork Shoulder covered in our All American Spice Rub:
We want to send special thanks to our family and friends who came to visit us and eat free BBQ. A special shout out goes to Rex with SavoryReviews.com.
And a HUGE thanks to Heath’s parents for travelling from Jefferson City, Missouri and helping us out all weekend:
And here’s the Pork Barrel BBQ family!
Here’s our pork shoulder getting going:
And here’s the finished product:
Here’s of shot of Heath and his amazing brisket (look at that smoke ring)!
We had an amazing time and learned a lot from the great BBQ talent that was competing – thanks again to
Safeway for hosting such a great event in Washington DC!

Today, Pork Barrel BBQ is pleased to announce that we have become a member of the World Famous Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS). It seems fitting that our first official association with a BBQ organization would be the KCBS since our products are inspired by the history and tradition of Kansas City BBQ!
The KCBS was started in 1985 and now has more than 8,000 members worldwide and sanctions almost 300 BBQ contests and events each year. The Mission of the KCBS is to celebrate, teach, preserve, and promote barbecue as a culinary technique, sport and art form and they want barbecue to be recognized as America’s Cuisine. For more information about the KCBS check out their website.
In the coming weeks look for several announcements regarding Pork Barrel BBQ’s participation in upcoming KCBS BBQ events. We are still not sure if we will use our Weber Kettle, our Char-Griller, or make a purchase of a new smoker or grill for the competitons – but we promise to keep you posted. Don’t forget to try our All American Spice Rub the next time you fire up the grill or smoker!
