BBQ so good you'll smack ur mama!
Slower Lower BBQ is a competition BBQ team based in Milton and Wilmington, Delaware. Officially formed in 2009 by team captains Mike Jarrell and Mark Stallard to take their love of cooking, especially BBQ, to another level. We've each been back yard chefs for over 20 years and wanted to explore our love of BBQ and see how we would do in competition. Our current schedule of upcoming events can be seen below. If you make to one of these events, please be sure to stop by and say hello. We love to talk about things BBQ related.
