I don't know, but I sure laughed at the image of little kids running around The Shed with beers in their hands while parents ate barbecue.

I have competed with my team at MIM the last 4 years and I know all these guys. Brad and Chris bring in guys from other places who have years of competition experience to cook and help cook. Competition cooking with this help is different and the food is good.
The last 2 years they also changed the blind box. Years past was a number on the box now it’s the team name and tent number on the box. So the blind judges know what they are eating. Chris won last year and Brad year before and this year. 10 Bones has won ribs almost every year in last 5+ years. Makes you wonder.

As far as Big Bob’s I’ve never been and can’t comment.
The Shed on the other hand is terrible. Brad & Brook basically let the staff run The Shed and all they do is basically steam ribs in tin foil and sauce on the smoker. All their meat is mushy, over cooked and over sauced.

Makes the whole thing meaningless. Probably was all fixed before anyway though.

Yes. It sucks. We compete in ribs. Same team always wins and one of the cooks is on the MIM Board from what I’m told by several teams.

I have no doubt that we could assemble a team from the FDB and put out a product that is superior to what they serve at their restaurant.


shite I could pump out better pulled pork in my crock pot.

Dats some fricked up shite.

Memphis fricked. Hogs stacked.

eta...My original post was based off the food they served at the MS restaurant. It's hot garbage. I think people like the tourist trap scenery.

Look at this pulled pork plate.

Agree 100%. I went twice spent $50 just me. Took a bite of each meat and side got up threw all in the trash & walked out. My mistake was giving it a 2nd chance. Both times there was at least 2 huge tour busses in the parking lot. If people like it, good for them, all have different tastes and likes but IMO it’s crap!

They should be embarrassed by what they serve in the restaurant. Their pork is a bland, smokeless mouthful of nothing.

I've been a couple times. Never saw a wood pile and never smelled smoke.

I’ve been twice. The first time it was mediocre.

The second time I thought it was pretty good. My wife and I enjoyed it. It’s popular on here to bash the place but it is okay for what it is.

Again, you don’t go to Gibson’s for pork. That was your first mistake.
