Click to see team Super Smokers BBQ try their best at the Memphis World Championship Cook-off, where pig-cooking skills are put to the test. This team is in it for the World Champions title, which will give them the marketing gold mine they need. In order to win, the Super Smokers must cook an entire pig and make sure each part of the pig tastes good; for this, the team invested in a $10,000 smoker which they hope will ensure them first place. But, the smoker gives the team trouble when a blow-out or cave-in occurs in the hogs shoulder, which would subtract points from the appearance of the pig. All ends well for team Super Smokers BBQ though; they win first place of the competition! In their celebration speech, this team thanked God for creating barbeque!
