By Mike Horne SCBA Representative FEBRUARY 22, 2014 - PORT ROYAL, SOUTH CAROLINA The South Carolina Barbeque Association began the 2014 season with a great event in Port Royal, SC. The Blues, Brews, and BBQ Festival held on Feb. 21 & 22, is in its 5th year supporting Friends of Carolina Hospice. This year the weather could not have been nicer. Thirty one cook teams participated in the competition. On Friday evening the teams cooked a Wings Throw Down with SCBA judges doing the tasting. Even t h o u g h the wings competition is not a sanctioned SCBA event the judges
certainly enjoyed the samples. All judges’ positions were filled well in advance of the Port Royal event so every table had a full compliment. Turn in for Butts began at 9:50 AM with Ribs following at 10:50 AM. The competition was very close with the points difference between first and tenth place for Butts was just over .5 points with the Ribs competition at .9 points between first and tenth. Awards were given out at 3:00 PM. Master SCBA Judges Barbara and Quinten Tedder were the event Marshals for Port Royal and as usual they did a great job. Not only do they work very hard making this and other costal events successful, Quentin, who is a master woodworker, made the three guitar shaped trophies for the Grand Champion, 1st place Buts and 1st place ribs winners. Butts winners at Port Royal: 1st Place Ultimate Tailgaters –
