Pelletheads took 5 out of the top ten spots in Lakeland this weekend. It was a great time and the Pro division spots were sold out with teams turned away.

Plus, it was great to see Fast Eddy and Stuart there also. We got to talk some about the new IQ4 controller on the FEC100 and it is a nice smoker!

As posted by Stephen Smith:

The lakeland FL contest and all the wonderful volunteers who donate countless hours to make it successful, is once again worthy of the accolades all have bestowed on it this weekend. Weather at todays contst was in the mid 70's. It "almost" sprinkled 9 drops of rain at the awards ceromony, but our great BBQ Gods withheld even that for a conclusion of a grand event. Crowds estimated in the 10's of thousnads were busy buying Barbecue all day long from anyone who had food or products for sale. There were 66 professional teams, 62 backyard teams, and 49 Kids-Q participants equal 177 total competition teams. What a spectacular event. ....

Respectfully submitted - Stephen Smith on behalf of myself and our other KCBS Reps: Clif Welch, Walter Hoffman, Mike Garretson, and our RAT John Bradden.

We had a blast cooking at this contest--it was our first time out and did all four meats in a single WSM--lots of fun but lots of work. I'm thankful to all of those who gave advice to us throughout the weekend and I look forward to competing with you folks again.

Five of Top Ten Teams at Florida State Barbecue Championship Contest Competed on Fast Eddy's by Cookshack Smokers

Teams Competing on Fast Eddy's by Cookshack Smokers Dominated the Top Ten Spots at the Lakeland Pig Fest, KCBS-sanctioned Florida State Barbecue Championship Contest, Lakeland, FL, January 26 – 27, 2007.


PONCA CITY, OKLAHOMA, USA – January 27, 2007 Sixty professional teams vied for the coveted top ten at the KCBS-sanctioned Lakeland Pig Fest, January 26 – 27, 2007, Lakeland, FL. Five of the teams who made it were competing on Fast Eddy's by Cookshack smokers.

Smoke & Suds – 5th
Homebbq – 6th
Bill & the Dixie Chicks – 8th
Firehouse BBQ – 9th
Fast Eddy – 10th

Ed "Fast Eddy" Maurin and Jerry Smith of Smoke & Suds were cooking next to each other, Jerry on an FEC100 and Eddy on an FEC500. With controllers set to the same temperature at the same time, Eddy and Jerry left the smokers to work their magic on the meat overnight. "When Jerry and I checked the temperature of our brisket and butts the next morning, the temps of the meats from both smokers were within 2 degrees of each other," says Eddy. FECs are known for their accuracy and reliability.

What started as a small festival in 1997 has evolved into a festival that with over 300 BBQ teams and over 30,000 in attendance and is growing rapidly each year. The pig festival has generated over $100,000 in contributions to charitable organizations within Polk County since 1997.

Bubba Chucks BBQ used a FEC 100 that I sold them, fist competition that they used the FEC I believe. They are some great guys...hell, they left the warmth and comfort of FL for the Ohio road trip to pick up my FEC. They are still fairly new to the circut, so keep an eye out on them. Congrats to everyone else in the FEC world.
