Despite Mother Nature looking to throw a kink in things for the weekend, 26 teams showed up in Dublin, GA on March 4, 2012 ready to give it all they had. Among these 26 teams were a good bit of first timers for FBA but that didn’t stop the showdown one bit! These newbies were ready to roll. Jim Burg of Killer B’s BBQ took home his first Grand Championship for Florida Barbecue Association sliding past B& T Cook Team and Dog House BBQ with 2.5 points for the win. Jim took home eighth place brisket, and eighth place pork. Third place in ribs and fifth place in chicken giving him a consistently high score. Bill and Teresa Tanner of Thomasville made a show for themselves finishing with first place ribs, and first

place chicken but unfortunately could only hold on to the overall sixth place spot. Doyle Jones, a local resident of Dublin, head cook of Dog House BBQ made his stamp on the competition in his home town by taking

home Reserve Champion by a First place Brisket and Pork, and tenth place ribs. Holy Smokes, Gary and Dionn Lanton, also of Dublin, GA took home third place overall, Bill Anderson with Chatham Artillery

BBQ took home fourth fol- overall and Bethel Smokers lowed by Robert Raw of U of Douglas, GA took home Rub Me Raw. B & T Cook tenth place overall. Team finished sixth overall, It’s a safe bet to place that as previously mentioned, the 2012 Dublin St. Pattyfollowed by Brad Kay and Q was quite the success. Lang Smokers in seventh Thanks to everyone who and Danny Coogle with Pit participated and put this Bulls Up in Smoke. Pitts event together to make it Toyota brought in ninth place possible.
