San Antone BBQ Battle 2018

Results:

A great turn out for the Yardbird Ale House Death Sentence Wing challenge. We had the challenge outside at the front of the Yardbird, with crowds filling up not only the Yardbird, but spilling over next door into “Hot Dog Style” and the car park.

Greg the head chef started out strong, with many pinning him as the favorite (insider knowledge!). Adam looked like he was going to take out the competition based on his stack of eaten wings, but Jared kept his cool, winning the competition by only 2 wings.

There was some controversy as second placed “Middo” was given a 3 wing penalty due to a noticeable amount of meat and skin being left on the wings. Prior to his wings being counted, Billy, Middo and Yardbird owner Luke publicly debated how many wings should be deducted from his total, and all agreed 3 was fair. He was the last person counted in the competition, and with the deduction he came in 2 wings short of first place! Middo showed great sportsmanship and humbly accepted his second place finish.

Warren “El Scorcho” Lees, a last minute entry was only 1 wing from third place, a fantastic effort for his first try at competitive eating.

First place: Jared “Jihad” Martin – 39 wings, winning $100 bar tab and a bottle of Single Barrel Jack Daniel’s Whiskey

Second place: Adam “Middo” – 37 wings, winning a $50 bar tab

Third place: Shawn “Shawneebee” Brown – 32 wings, winning a $25 bar tab
