COMPETITOR
The Pit Crew, GA
HEAD COOK: Tina Cannon
COMPETITION: World Barbecue Championship - EAT Division
I started competing in BBQ in the Backyard division in 2009, after winning my very first contest; I was bit by the competition bug! I moved up to the Pro division after a couple years and I compete in about 20 competitions a year under the Team Name The Pit Crew, Ga. I am the Pitmaster for our team and my husband is the CFO! I’m very lucky to have a husband that supports me in my passion of Food Sport! It takes a lot of time, effort and money to be involved in this crazy sport; but I truly love it! I have made wonderful friends and it’s like a homecoming when I come to WFC. I currently work as a Chef for Meals on Wheels of Coweta County in Newnan, GA. I love cooking for a cause and providing meals for the often forgotten elderly home bound residents in my community. I’m excited to be competing in Dallas this year in both BBQ and Firewoman!
