Gordon McRay from Harrodsburg, Ky, removes a rack of ribs from his smoker during competition Saturday at the Grillin’ & Chillin’ BBQ Cookoff at Diamond Lake Resort. His and his wife, Babette, make up the “Hogtown Barbeque” team and the two cooked chicken, ribs, brisket, and pork butt for the Kentucky State KCBS sanctioned contest. “We usually compete in about 12 events each year,” McRay said.
