Ballast Point Brewing Company 13th Annual Charity Event - NTC

Ballast Point had their 13th Annual Charity Event for the NTC Foundation. Big Daddy Black's BBQ was invited to provide some fantastic BBQ for the crowd of over 1,500 people! It was a tall order but the event was very successful.

On the menu was Pulled Pork Sandwiches, Bratwurst, Chicken, Baked Beans, and Cole Slaw.

The Pulled Pork was smoked for over 12 hours on a trailered Traeger. This thing was a beautiful cooker that kept the temperature within 5 degrees with an outside temperature swing of 40 degrees.

The chicken was also smoked in the big Traeger once we arrived at the site.

The bratwurst was first boiled in Ballast Point Wahoo Wheat and then further cooked on the smaller portable Traeger Big Tex Smokers.

All the sides were made on site minutes before serving time.

The event was a great success to Ballast Point, the NTC Foundation, and Big Daddy Black's BBQ!
