Pig Smokers In Paradise was formed in May of 2005. Marc, April and Alan had just left another cooking team to strike and try some new ideas. A mutual love for cooking barbecue and for hanging out and having a good time was a great motivater for getting started. The three had known each other for quite some time. Alan and Marc have known each other for almost twenty-five years and had played in a band a few years previous to the teams inception.

There first event sealed the deal at Lawrenceburg in 2004 where they recieved four top tens and three ribbons. They continued with success at several events afterward and continue in the present placing well in all the events they compete in.

In October at Smokin' On the Square in their hometown of Gallatin, Tn they recieved first place in Sauce and are currently working on a bottling deal as well as getting the first of three spice rubs package for resale and distribution. As soon as they become available you will be able to purchase them here online or at grocery stores located in the South.

In May of 2005 Michael Davis became the fourth member of PSIP. The president of Skylert Notification Systems climbed onboard as a sponsor as well as a team member. His love for barbecue and personality instantly made him a welcome member of the team and continues to have incredible input for the team and other areas beneficial to the team.
