Stephen Hypes – Director

Coming from Virginia, I’ve been proud to call the Mid-Atlantic home since I got started in competition BBQ, a time when I thought “BBQ” was a pulled pork sandwich and I had no idea what brisket was. Since then, I’ve had the honor and privilege to compete against, learn from, judge with, and be guided by some true giants of the BBQ world.

I have been involved in Competition BBQ since 2014 primarily as the head cook for Still Workin’ On It BBQ. I am also an SCA member, experienced Certified BBQ Judge and have served as a part-time team member of Wolf’s Revenge BBQ.
