Local “Goat Willie’s” BBQ cooking team earned 5th place at the Brady World Championship Barbeque Cook-Off Labor Day weekend, August 31-September 1st.
“Goat Willie,” Paul Coghlan (pictured left with the trophy) is the leader of the team and is the sanitation inspector for the City of Brownwood. Over 200 teams competed and on Saturday, Goat Willie’s team clinched 5th place. The event was held in Richards Park in Brady and was a sold out competition according to event organizers.
A tradition since 1973, the Goat Cook-Off started as a Jaycees fundraiser and has grown to a much bigger event.
