Local favorite Derrick Dove,
fronting the Peacekeepers, is
known for blending his strong
guitar style with a hard-rocking
vocals to get the lunchtime
crowd up and rocking.
Thirty of the Rhythm & Ribs
signature trophies were up
for grabs during the festival.
“Ol’ Porky” has become one
of the most unique trophies
of its kind and has been a
huge hit with competing
teams over the years.
The Tifton team Glory, Glory to
Ol’ Porky took home the Grand
Champion trophy and a check
for $1,000 in the Backyard
competition. Team members
Donald Gilman and Matt Fletcher
were presented with both from
Chris Beckham, Mayor Julie
Smith, and Tyron Spearman.
