Cattlemen's
Champion's Choice

OUR HERITAGE

With over 30 years of expertise, CATTLEMEN'S® is the #1 BBQ sauce used by restaurants. In addition, CATTLEMEN'S® has been the secret ingredient in the winning recipes of every Grand Champion at the World Championship BBQ Cooking Contest at Memphis in May* for the past 14 years. Great Ingredients = Great Taste.

CATTLEMEN'S® offers four distinct flavors:

Made with the finest ingredients:

Tomato Paste — CATTLEMEN'S® Barbecue Sauces use only rich, dense tomato paste with 26% tomato solids, unlike other brands that are made with tomato puree, which is watered down and contains as little as 8% tomato solids.

Quality Ingredients — Unlike most other brands, CATTLEMEN'S® contains no starches or fillers for naturally thick barbecue sauce that seals in the flavor and resists skinning over.

Team Bio

Tom & Josh's Orgasmic Slabs (The Slabs) was founded in 1996 by Josh Wilson and his cousin Tom Wilson. Tom & Josh decided to start competing at the 1996 American Royal™ where they received a 7th place honorable mention in chicken for their "Tommy Wings". Unfortunately, Tom passed away in January 1998.

Kyle Laval joined the Slabs in May of 1998. With the help of their family and friends the Slabs have prospered in competition. Stephanie's son, Brent Richardson, is the junior member of the team having won Grand Champion Kids Que™ in Laurie, MO, two years in a row, among other accomplishments.

In 2001, they won numerous top ten awards, but by winning the 2001 Johnson County Barbeque Championship™ in Warrensburg, MO, they were in the American Royal Invitational™ and had their names picked from the Jack Daniels World Invitational® pool. At Jack Daniels®, they received 1st place in the chicken category and 9th place overall. In 2002, numerous top ten awards were earned, Reserve Grand Champion™ honors at Lawrence, KS; Platte City, MO and Jamesport, MO. The Grand Champion win at the Paola Roots Fest™ in Paola, KS took the team to the American Royal Invitational™ and first alternate (and were able to compete!) for Jack Daniels® 2002!
