Cinderella gets the slipper. Jousting Pigs BBQ out of Liberty, Missouri, is Flatland’s first BBQ Bonanza Bracket champion!
Jousting Pigs is relatively new to the area, but the joint’s craft barbecue approach has drawn barbecue lovers and aficionados from all over the Kansas City area.
It shows you don’t need to have the most likes on social media to have a dedicated and enamored following. Jousting Pigs’ rabid fan base brought the heat when it came to voting for their favorite Kansas City BBQ joint, beating LC’s Bar-B-Q in the finals.
After two weeks of voting, the 2020 KC BBQ Bonanza Bracket has come to an end. If your favorite didn’t win this time, don’t fret, because there is always next year. You can click here to see the complete bracket.
We will be randomly selecting a voter who voted in each of the rounds and reaching out to them soon about receiving their Flatland swag pack and a barbecue meal for four from any of the 64 BBQ bracket restaurants.
Thanks for voting, friends. Hope you enjoyed a little friendly competition as much as we did.
Now, try out a local barbecue joint you haven’t had before. Who knows, it may just be next year’s champion.
