Matt's First Memphis in May BBQ Fest

Well, the Gatewood home has been a very busy place lately. Matt's first BBQ Fest was May 14 - 17. His team had quite a few "exciting" moments, but none of them really had to do with the BBQ. I will save those stories for Matt to tell. Maybe I can talk him into posting an entry on here sometime. :)

We had lots of fun at the festival. Matt's team won the following:
33 out of 106 in ribs
23 out of 71 in beans
37 out of 84 in poultry
30 out of 89 in seafood

I think that is great for their 2nd year (Matt's first on the team).

Here are some pictures from BBQ Fest. Enjoy!
