Back Yard Braggen’ Rights is always a whirlwind of adventures for me! Plans and preparations start many days and weeks before and it is such a treat when all that planning falls into place. The day of the event always starts early with set up and food preparations. Once the smoking teams start showing up our day is set in motion.
May 23rd, 2015....round 4 of Backyard Braggen' Rights kicked off with beautiful weather (seems to be some power in prayer...yes God!). Add a breakfast burrito, that I snagged from the Allred smoker, to the beautiful weather and my day was off to a great start! The music system was easily put together and most of the set up had been accomplished the day before so unlike previous years where we ran around in circles, we were actually able to enjoy the beginning of the day and enjoy the calm before the storm AKA lunch hour.
Backyard Braggen Rights is always a fun experience for me and this time was no different. I worked the sign-in table 90% of the day, since I was not able to walk around due to injuring my leg. This also allowed me to converse with people I knew.
The Grand Champion title this year went to Oink-A-Doink BBQ, Rick & Ivy Taylor and their kids head up this team. This year the Grand Champion not only receives the Braggen Rights title and their name on the trophy but they took home a Char-Griller Smoker for the Grand Prize.
Our Spring Back Yard Braggin Rights is fast approaching! We are in the process of lining up our judges and signing up teams to join in the cookoff.
My hubby is working feverishly behind the scenes to get our website updated and ready for this event. Please check back frequently for updates. If you have any questions please feel free to send us an email or ring us up on the telephone!
We are hoping for another fun filled day, be sure to mark your calendars for Saturday May 24th and join in the festivities.
