Memphis in May 2010 Results

Congratulations to Yazoo's Delta Q. Out of 254 teams at this past weekend's Memphis in May BBQ compeition, they took home the top prize, based mainly on their win in the illustrious whole hog category. A run-down of the other top finishers is below. You can see the familiar names of Cool Smoke taking top honor in the pork shoulder category, as well as Myron Mixon's team, Jack's Old South finishing 8th in the same category. I couldn't even find Jack's Old South mentioned anywhere in the whole hog standings. Does anyone out there know what happened to Myron in his favorite category?

I believe that at MIM, unlike other MBN events, you can only enter one category.

DISCLAIMER:

Each joint is judged on the essence of Texas 'cue...sliced brisket and pork ribs. Sausage is only considered if house made. Sauce is good, but good meat needs no adornment to satisfy. Each review can only be based on specific cuts of meat on that particular day. Finally, if the place fries up catfish or serves a caesar salad, then chances are they aren't paying enough attention to the pits, so we mostly steered clear.
