Hey Guys!!

Still trying to let it sink in… TEAM BUGSYQUE brought home the 🏆 Patio Porkers Championship at Memphis in May World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest!!

What started as a weekend of smoke, late nights, fire management, and nonstop laughs with BBQ family turned into one of the biggest moments of my BBQ journey. There’s just something special about cooking in Memphis… the atmosphere, the people, the music, the pressure, and that feeling when those smokers are rolling all night long.

We cooked our hearts out and left it all on the pit. From trimming meat to final turn-ins, every second mattered — and this time, everything came together at the right moment.

I’m beyond thankful for every person who stopped by the site, sent a message, cheered me on, shared a post, helped behind the scenes, or simply believed in Team BugsyQue. Y’all have no idea how much that support means.

Huge shoutout to all my sponsors, BBQ family, friends, and competitors that make this sport what it is. BBQ is competition, but it’s also family… and that’s what makes wins like this even sweeter.

MEMPHIS BBQ RULES THE WORLD — NO CONTEST! 🔥🐷🏆

As we pause to remember, please take a moment remember our troops deployed, their families, and all those that serve. - Team Bugsy Que

Hey Guys!!!

Championship BBQ starts with championship quality meats, and that’s exactly why I trust Prairie Fresh pork every single cook. The consistency, quality, and performance they bring to the table gives me confidence every time I fire up the pit.

I also have to give a huge shoutout to The Butcher Block in Southaven — my go-to butcher shop. From the incredible selection of meats to the amazing staff, they truly make a difference. If you’re looking for top-quality cuts and great customer service, go see John David and the crew and let them hook you up with some championship-worthy meats!

And finally, .david.wheeler — thank you personally for everything you do for me. Your guidance, support, and friendship mean more than words can say. You’ve been an incredible mentor and someone I’m truly thankful to have in my corner.

The love and support never go unnoticed. ❤️🔥

I was fortunate to meet during my first in 2022, they took a few minutes to make my day. Fast forward 4 short years and I had the honor of being able to walk the stage this year and carry with me!! BBQ is truly about friends, family and the experience. Thank you to and all the others that hosted the Ricky Bobby event and helped so many of us make some BBQ memories this week. - BBQBUGSY
