This past Saturday afternoon, Speedy and I stopped in on the Q-City Charlotte BBQ Championship. Walking through the competition site on was pretty cool and fairly amusing (the pig puns, they were a-flowing), but the standard street fair aspects and the lack of barbecue options outside of Mac’s, Rock Store, and Sauceman‘s was a little disappointing – my one sandwich from Rock Store was dry and forgettable. Still, I’m glad that Charlotte has a legit barbecue championship and who knows, maybe next year Speedy and I will participate as judges or competitors…
