Go Big or Go BBQ

Award winning competition bbq team! We have line up of award winning sauce and rubs apart of the Mister Brisket brand!

Go Big or Go BBQ came from a passion for cooking and creating experiences with my family. I can remember my first pork shoulder being cooked on a charcoal grill for Christmas one year, it didn't turn out perfect but my family loved it none the less. Our first competition was in 2014, and although we came in last place, the memories and support we had was enough to push us to keep on going. We took

first place the next year in the Pork category! Fast forward to 2019 and we have competed and won and grown from a hobby into a small business that is still supported by our family! Check out our awards below and as always !

Kids that went big with us at career day made us thank you cards and let me tell ya, they're better than any trophy we can win!

My biggest goal with go big or go bbq, the relationships we have with our sponsors, the and everything we are doing at Mister Brisket, Inc. is to make bbq, whether thats competition or in the backyard approachable to everyone and that starts with our future pitmasters!

Like I told them, a dream without a goal is just a dream! Get out there, make that goal, and go big!

Checked indiana off our list on states we cooked in this weekend!

Had a great time at Rockin' BBQ , parked next to Tire Smoke BBQ who walked all 4 categories and took 3rd overall!

We turned in 7 boxes, tried out some things, learned alot, saw some success and heard our name a couple a times

Highlights were a 4th place Springer Mountain Farms chicken call living that , our highest placement to do date in chicken! These thighs came right off the shelf at Mister Brisket, Inc. , our teams killing it on the trim and it shows

cheesecake took 6th in dessert!

We saw our brisket score improve from our last contest, we gotta go back to drawing board on pork and ribs stayed consistent.

Congrats to Scuffletown Smokers BBQ Team for their huge GC and We Will Rock 'Que Competition BBQ on their rgc!

Played an ode to Heath Riles on friday night rib burn and turned in some mbn style baby backs, taking 15th and a 172 which in kcbs, in a tough field of 34, is pretty good!

Speaking of Heath Riles BBQ , theyre back to back Memphis in May world champs! A feat that hasn't been done in 42 years! Proud to be on and represent this team!

Our Outlaw BBQ Smokers fueled by Royal Oak Charcoal ran flawlessly through 3 out of 4 seasons and wind we saw on Saturday! Shout out to Jay for the awesome trophies!

As always, best part of any competition is seeing teams using and succeed with meats we provided and there was plenty of that this weekend!

Ill never take for granted how this hobby now turned career is allowing for some great memories not only with my son but dad also. I appreciate Hank for allowing me to represent us around the country and my wife for all of her support! I love you!

Next up is Grizzly BBQ Brawl with a guest teammate 😏🔥
