BBQ on the River: Iron Chef Challenge

So the 14th Ever BBQ on the River's coming up. The cookin' starts Thursday, Sept. 25 and continues through Friday, Sept. 26 and Saturday, Sept. 27. The bbqontheriver.org Web site rocks — the schedule, participants and their beneficiaries and other details are all included on the site. New this year: We're going to have an iList Paducah booth! And. Get this. We're in the Media Cook-Off. Which is pretty funny because nobody cooks less than Nikki and I. We, however, have a secret weapon: DJ Urban Kobbb. Not only is he amazing at spinning the tunes and writing our music reviews, you should see him when he really gets cookin'! He is an excellent chef. And he loves a good challenge. This year, the cook-off is a takeoff on Iron Chef. At 2:30 p.m., Friday, Sept. 26, all of us media types are given a cooler full of mystery meat and some spices. We have until 6:30 p.m. to transform our raw materials into amazing works of culinary art. A panel of judges will then decide the winner, and, may I just be bold enough to say, iList Paducah will be taking home one of the first BBQ on the River trophies! Our competition so far: WKYQ, WBEL/WGCF, WQQR and the Paducah Sun. So stay tuned for details — and please plan to stop by our booth and cheer on Chef DJUK!
