Smokin' Tailgators at Jack Daniel's

GOBS members Kenny and Tammy Meyer of Omaha were invited to participate in the Jack Daniel's Invitational in Tennessee in late October 2007.

To qualify for "The Jack," U.S. teams must have already won a competition in which 50 or more teams participated, or they must have won a competition of at least 25 teams that has been designated a "state championship." However, not only must these teams be culinary experts, they must also be lucky. With more than 100 teams qualifying each year ... and because of the limited space in Lynchburg ... the number of teams is limited, and entrants from states with multiple contestants are selected by lottery.

On Oct. 27, the results were in, and Smokin' Tailgators finished ninth overall! A record 60 champion teams from the U.S. and 21 teams from countries across the world including, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Estonia, Germany, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Puerto Rico, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom, fought for this year’s title. The international field was the largest in all of competitive barbequing’s history.
