Carl’s serious interest in food began before he was finished high school when he began working as a busboy in a newly opened fine dining restaurant in his small hometown. He continued working in the business, mostly part time, for over 30 years where he worked with many talented chefs serving primarily French and Continental cuisine.

He developed an appreciation and love for BBQ after visiting some of his wife’s family in Texas a few years ago. After returning from that trip he purchased a WSM, spent countless hours educating himself on the Virtual Weber Bullet website and started cooking BBQ regularly for friends and family.

During the summer of 2006, after a job change suddenly resulted in free nights and weekends, Carl attended BBQ competitions on three consecutive weekends and was then completely hooked! He became a Certified Barbecue Judge in March, 2007 and will have judged twenty-four contests by the end of 2009. He will continue to work toward becoming a Master Barbecue Judge and hopes to someday form a team and enter the competition circuit

Andy has always enjoyed cooking outdoors thought he made some pretty good ribs until he went to his first professional competition.

Andy became a KCBS Certified BBQ Judge in December of 2007 after bumping into a KCBS Judge at the Dimond State BBQ Champioinship in October of that year.  Along the way he also became a MABA member and was elected Secretary in 2008.

To date Andy had judged at 20 competitions and has made a lot of new friends (both team members and fellow judges).  He also has bought his first smoker and has been testing his cooking skills on the neighbors.  No complaints yet!

Professionally, Andy has aways worked in Information Technology (IT) sales.  He  resides in Hershey PA with his wife and son and in his spare time he enjoys riding his Harley Electra Glide.

I was born and raised in NOVA.  I've been married for 16yrs with no children except the 4 legged ones. 
Since 2007 my husband Tom and I have been competing as the Virginia BBQ Pirates but we have been 
cooking far longer, probably 20yrs. Our motto is " It's Not The Size Of Your Smoker - It's The Taste Of Your Meat" 
and we cook on Weber Smokey Mountains,   fondly known  also as WSM's .     

I don't have any formal experience in organizing events but I do come with a lot of knowledge on how to organize social 
events and banquets. I helped my Mother who worked in food service with the schools and helped out plenty to bring her events to success.      
I am looking forward to helping MABA reach our next level of success. Any and all ideas will be welcomed, please drop me a line.     

In the off season I enjoy cooking, putting together new recipes and of course practice, practice and more practice. 
I also enjoy the outdoors (you almost have to) walking, surfing the net and of course the telephone, many members can vouch for that one!
