Held at Small Country Campground, Bill Small and his family annually put on a great contest.  Almost all of the sites are in a wooded area and close to turn ins, creating a great atmosphere for the cooks to get together and celebrate barbecue.

Although there were only 25 teams, the competition was fierce, with some of the top cooks on the East Coast squaring off for honors.

Congrats to Old Colony Smokehouse for Grand Champion, and Grate Smoke for Reserve Grand.

This year’s Que n Cruz also marked the end of an era in MABA-land, with it being the final contest for KCBS representative John Bush.  Good luck with retirement John!  Enjoy the travel!
