The thing with competition bbq is you never know what you are going to get.
This weekend was extra hard as we are still without a truck - and you dont realize how much stuff ends up in the truck for a cookoff....
The weather stayed away for the most part until brisket turn in. Then came down fast and hard.
When the smoke cleared.... the margarita and dessert didnt place when we would have bet on those.... but
6th Chili 🌶
9th Bloody Mary 🍅
1st Beans 🫘
3rd Chicken 🐔
1st Ribs 🐷
4th Brisket 🐮
Grand Champion
Congrats to Eric Lopez South Texas BBQ Blaze on your RGC, and all our friends who had their numbers called.
Thank you to Builders First Source for allowing us to represent you year after year at the Greater New Braunfels Home Builders Association Blowin Smoke Cookoff.

Paynefully Good BBQ rolled into Stonewall, Texas for the annual Hill Country Builders Association BBQ Cookoff. Our first time cooking this event and a year in the making as we have heard it is a blast. We made a grand entrance with a little mud on the tires!
Everything went super smooth, but we were a little discouraged when none of our jackpots hit and were 9 calls into 🐔 still hadn't given up our ticket.... but we ended up with
1st Stupid Chicken - It was beautiful.
2nd Rib
5th Brisket - True backyard style
GRAND CHAMPION 🏆 out of 44 teams!
Congratulations to Jay Tinney on your 1st Ribs, 1st Brisket and RGC. It was a pleasure being setup beside you and hearing all the stories of BBQ many years ago. That era of BBQ is something special.
Congrats to our friends at LIT UP BBQ of your 1st place Cooks Choice!
Thank you to Builders First Source for continuing to allow us to represent you at these events.

Paynefully Good BBQ would like to THANK everyone that stopped by to see us at the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo BBQ Cookoff. As Life Members of the Rodeo it is our goal to raise as much money as possible for the Scholarship Fund through the Kash4Kids program. Our BBQ family kids did a phenomenal job selling lemonade, hot chocolate and other goodies.
We could not have made it through the weekend without our SA Rodeo Wine Committee family. The memories and laughs made the cold days short!
Highlights of the weekend included
🎸Garrett Talamantes singing the National Anthem - If you are not following this amazing young man, you should!
🐷 44th place Ribs
🍗 69th Overall, everything in the top third - even jackpots on a stacked field of 330+
🤣 Laughing at some of the judges scores who were clearly looking for a specific dessert.

Paynefully Good BBQ stayed close and cooked the Greater San Antonio Builders Association 6th Annual Up in Smoke BBQ Cookoff at the Helotes Cornyval Grounds. For the 5th year we were honored to represent Builders First Source. After the smoke cleared we finished with...
1st Margarita 🍹
1st Dessert 🥧
1st Beans 🫘
6th Chicken 🐔
3rd Ribs 🐷
6th Overall (lost the tie breaker for 5th)
Our Bloody Mary and Cooks Choice were awesome, but the judges wanted something else. Highlight of the weekend was being asked to show one of our good friends some Brisket tips and tricks, which resulted in a top 10 Brisket!
Congrats to Steven Garcia of Westwood Engineering on your BIG GC and Eric Lopez of South Texas Blaze on your RGC.
Congrats to Mr. Colby Duke on winning the Cuatro D Drum! You wont be disapointed!
