Galesburg Railroad Days Rib Cookoff Results
The Galesburg Jaycees once again held a successful 4th Annual Galesburg Jaycees Railroad Days Rib Cookoff on Saturday.

Six teams competed this year: Heads Up from Maquoketa, Iowa; Kalijah from Galesburg; defending champions Schultzy's Brew N Que; Rib Cook-Off veterans Chilln N Grillin; a new entry Ribs for Your Pleasure and the Peoria Jaycees Old Style Smokers.

The competition was very close, with 3rd place being decided by a tie-breaker and the Peoria Jaycees winning the award for the 2nd year in a row by one point.

The four-year veterans of the Rib Cook-Off Chillin N Grillin took 2nd place and people's choice honors. But it was Schultzy's Brew N Que that added another win to their streak, making their total three wins. The Brew N Que team has competed and won the prize all three years that they have entered.

Summary:

1st Place (For the 3rd year in a row) - Schultzy's Brew N Que
2nd Place - Chillin N Grillin
3rd Place (By 1 point AFTER a tie-breaker) - Peoria Jaycees Old Style Smokers
People's Choice - Chillin N Grillin
