I just want to start by saying what an absolutely amazing, energizing, emotional, heartfelt and rewarding event this has proven to be.
Thank you to Matt Putnam, who came to me and suggested we start a new KCBS event in Door County and to Laurie Tweten who stepped back from being my Rep to being my co partner and hold my hand, encouraging me, guiding me, as she continue to reach out to her People and get this baby off the ground, also to Dave and Becky our reps all the way from Indiana for thier never ending guidance and support, most importantly running a tight ship for our first annual Rollin Smoke at Rustic Timbers‘s BBQ Bash Competition!
Thank you to our judges, who came from near and far to enjoy our team’s food and reward them with their amazing talent, tastebuds and knowledge for barbecue. Leading us to our well deserving winners.
