Every year, thousands of people flock to Lynchburg, TN for the Jack Daniel’s World Championship Invitational Barbecue. Most are there to watch and eat, only a select few are there to compete. In the BBQ circuit, getting an invitation to “The Jack” is the invite of all invites…this is our World Series, this is our SuperBowl. To make it, you need to win 1st place or Grand Champion in a qualifying competition. Needless to say, countless enter, only the best are invited.
This weekend marked the 20th anniversary of this BBQ Competition. Competitive BBQ teams from across the country competed in the 4 KCBS (Kansas City Barbeque Society) categories: Chicken, Pork Ribs, Pork and Brisket. Teams work through the weekend and around the clock to man their pits and produce some of the best BBQ the world has ever seen and in the end only the best of the best are left standing.
