Competition & Honors

What does it take to win at the Jack Daniel's World Championship Invitational Barbecue Contest?

First, you've got to get yourself invited,
and to do that you need to be
the best of the best in your state.  Big Daddy's Bar-B-Q earned the right to compete in the "Jack" by winning the Alaska State BBQ Grand Championship.


Next, you assemble a crew of the best BBQ cooks in the land, or in this case, the Groetsema brothers from Washington, Alaska, New Jersey and North Carolina.  This is a family that knows their BBQ.


Setting up the cooking area is important,
as bragging rights extend far beyond
just the food.

And then there is the parade, balloons to pass out to the kids, funny moose hats, and a Jack Daniel's reception that fed the several hundreds of us.


All festivities aside, the real work begins.  Smokers are stoked and maintained to their critical temperatures for the slow, slow cook that must be timed critically.

As the all night vigil turns to day,
onlookers watch as we prepare
our presentation for the judges.


This is what the judges received
from Big Daddy's BarB-Q

These are the judges.


Here is one very proud winner.
Alaska's own, Big Daddy's BarB-Q stands among the elite of BBQ.
