All Fired Up Kickin Ash Winners
Cameron County Chamber of Commerce All Fired Up Kickin Ash BBQ filled downtown Saturday with smoke and foodies. Hungry
folks purchasing ribs, pulled pork, turkey legs, brisket and even desserts that were “smoked”.
The big winner was locally owned Smitty’s Eat N Shack. Kevin Smith was the judges favorite in wings, mystery meat and pulled
pork. The mystery meat selected by the event sponsor Emporium Food Market was tripe. Smitty’s Eat N Shack also took home
people’s choice. Bobby Que’s from Emporium took home best sauce, and dessert which had the town talking. The dessert featured
smoked caramelized bananas in pudding. Mort’s Meat Mafia from Gallitzin placed first in turkey and brisket. Jason’s Smokin from
Brockway took home best ribs trophy. Roulette team 242 BBQ took home best sides which was mac n cheese.
Executive Director of the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce, Tina Solak says the event shows off the ‘smokin’ skills of the PA
Wilds while serving as a fundraiser for local organizations. Nam Knights of America Allegheny Mountain Chapter, and Christabelle
Club mingled with foodies. “The chamber strives to use local businesses when hosting events. The t-shirts were designed and printed
by Art n Ink”.
Next year will see some changes as the event will be the final contest in a PA Wilds BBQ Circuit and competitors will accumulate
points, with the highest point total taking home $300 in cash. BBQ lovers are encouraged to follow PA Wilds BBQ Circuit Facebook
page. All Fired Up Kickin Ash is always held the fourth Saturday of September.
