Peak City Pigfest
« Reply #-1 on: June 23, 2015, 05:50:54 PM »
Just though I should mention that Billy Merrill (my cooking team partner and a member here) and his son Robert finished 5th at the Peak City Pigfest in Apex, NC last weekend, doing so without my assistance while I dealt with a church conference.  I'm very proud of them and hope to return to competition soon.  There were some tough, big, every weekend competitors there and it warms the cockles of the heart to see a "part time" team do so well  ;D
