January 2009- COOKER OF THE MONTH GARRY ROARK AND THE UBONS CREW- YAZOO
CITY MISSISSIPPI
WELL I FIRST MET MR. GARRY ROARK IN NEW YORK CITY. NOW I KNOW THAT MAY BE A FUNNY PLACE TO MEET A BARBECUE
MAN, HOWEVER I WAS AT MY FIRST "BIG APPLE BARBECUE, AND I HAVE SINCE MET SEVERAL
MIGHTY FINE BARBECUE MEN THERE. AND GARRY ROARK IS ONE OF THE FINEST, FROM HIS HANDSHAKE, TO HIS SOUTHERN SMILE TO HIS GUITAR
PLAYIN' AND HIS SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY HE IS FIRST CLASS PEOPLE ALL THE WAY.
I UNDERSTAND THAT GARRY'S BARBECUE HERITAGE IS OVER FIVE GENERATIONS DEEP AND A SECRET SAUCE RECIPE
HAS BEEN HANDED DOWN OVER THE YEARS. SINCE 1989 THE UBONSTEAM HAS BEEN IN AROUND A HUNDRED OR MORE SANCTIONED EVENTS THAT
HAVE AWARDED THEM 23 GRAND CHAMPIONSHIPS,53 FIRST PLACE,40 SECOND PLACE,AND 12 THIRD PLACE AWARDS AS WELL AS 4 TRIPS TO "THE
JACK" AN INVITATIONAL WORLD CHAMPONSHIP IN LYNCHBURG TENNESSEE. AND A COUPLE OF TOURS TO THE "MEMPHIS IN MAY"
CONTEST AND A FIRST PLACE FINISH IN 1996 AND MULTIPLE STATE CHAMPIOSHIPS IN MISSISSIPPI, ILLINOIS,ALABAMA, TENNESSEE, ARKANSAS,INDIANA,
GEORGIA, TEXAS, FLORIDA, IOWA, OHIO,KENTUCKY, AND LOUISIANA.NO WONDER HIS BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER LESLIE REFERS TO HIM AS "THE
KING OF DELTA Q", OH YEAH SHE IS AFFECTIONATELY KNOW AS "THE BARBECUE PRINCESS"
GARRY'S GROUP CONTAINS MANY A GOOD HEARTED SOUL. HIS WIFE ELAINE, DAUGHTERS LESLIE AND JENNIFER, FRIEND
FOR LIFE BRIAN, AND SEVERAL OTHER FINE FOLKS. I'VE NEVER BEEN TO MISSISSIPPI BUT IF ALL THEM FOLKS DOWN THERE ARE LIKE
THE ONES I HAVE MET I SHOULD THINK ABOUT RELOCATING! THERE IS ALWAYS A " COLD ONE" WAITING FOR YOU, A PLACE TO SIT
AND A WELCOME SMILE AROUND THE "UBONS" TRAILER.OVER THE YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN SOME GREAT CONCOCTIONS INVENTED ALONG
THE BARBECUE TRAILS AND THES FOLKS HAPPEN TO BE THE INOVATORS OF A FEW REAL FINE ONES, SUCH AS " THE PERFECT SANDWICH,
THE PERFECT BLOODY MARY, AND THE YAZOO SPECIAL( SEE DRINK OF THE MONTH PAGE)"
WELL I'M GUESSIN IT'S NO SURPRISE THAT THE ROARK FAMILY RUNS A COUPLE OF SUCCESSFUL BARBECUE RESTAURANTS.
IF YOU ARE EVER IN THE AREA STOP ON IN AND TELL EM' "BIG DADDY" SENT YA! I KNOW THEY WILL HAVE A COOL DRINK
AND A DELICIOUS MEAL READY FOR YOU!
