If you are trying to find someplace to ride on Saturday, you might want to head up toward Melissa (Hwy 5 just north of 121) to come tast some of the best BBQ ribs a small town can cook up. This is the 4th Annual Celebration of Freedom this year, and out of the first 3 years, I have taken 1st place two years!!! I am the defending champion and will be defending against my oldest son, Chase, this year. I bought another smoker two days ago and we will be cooking over 300 lbs of meat, from 30 racks of ribs, 16 pork shoulders and 8 briskets!! I will also be selling baked beans and my homemade BBQ Sauce. All proceeds from my sales go to support the Melissa Booster Clubs. Judging is at 4:00pm. Food will be for sale about 3:00 when everything gets kicked off. There is a parade at 6 and fireworks sometime after 9. Feel free to call me at 214-893-9171-cell.

If anyone wants to join us for the ride up there, we plan on meeting at Chase Bank parking lot in Richardson (NE corner of Belt line and 75) at 2:30.

I wish you all could have been there for the small town experience we enjoyed in Melissa today! Didn't hurt a bit that Charles took first place again this year, and for good reason! If you get a chance to experience "low level" fireworks (new to me), jump at the chance. The low altitude show felt very up close and in our laps. Thanks much, Charles, for including us in the fun! ~Jeff

Had a great day yesterday. Great friends, great food, swamp fan for cooling effect... what could have been better? A good crowd for that kind of event in a small town. Enough people to be interesting/friendly, but not so many as to be a mob.
Congratulations Charles on your first place ribs. Meat was excellent.
Chase, I enjoyed your ribs too! Don't be discouraged because you didn't get a trophy. Keep trying and watching your dad, and you will be giving him some major competition in no time. You can be one of the best if you don't give up.
