The Shed’s BBQ Awards
The Awards that The Shed has won fill the trophy case to overflowing. Winning over 20 awards for their sauces at the National BBQ Association Convention, as well as the Grand World Championship in the Whole Hog Division at the Memphis in May World Championship, are only a few notches in the belts of The Shed’s BBQ competition team.
Most every item on The Shed’s menu has won prestigious awards. From all of the meats, the sauces, to Daddy O’s coleslaw. The Shed is proud of their accomplishments in the National BBQ arena, but even more proud to serve up all these award winning dishes everyday. Eating a pulled pork sandwich at The Shed, knowing that it is the Ultimate Hometown Grill Off Champion on the Regis and Kelly Show is quite a treat for our ShedHeds.
