On June 5, 2010 Island Realty and Coosaw Point held the “First Annual Coosaw Point BBQ Cookoff” to benefit The Little Red Dog, an organization that provides special bikes to handicapped children and adults. 250 locals attended the cookoff showcasing both professionals and amateurs competing in a variety of categories such as Professional, Amateurs, Just for Fun/Trailer Trash and Showmanship. Among the area restaurants in the event were, Saltus / Plums, Boondocks, Keiths, Danny’s BBQ, The Office & The Smokey Chef. Among the amateurs vying for honors were Bud Martin, Andy Gallant & Lorrick Fanning.
The daunting task of tasting and judging these fine samples of “real barbecue” was left to local celebreties; Rep. Shannon Erickson, Sen. Tom Davis, Mayor Billy Keyserling, Malcolm Goodrich, Charles Gay and Richard Brooks. Robert and Ann Gallant graciously donated the location and Island Realty’s Christian Sherbert & Todd McDaniel did a yeoman’s job of organizing the event that ultimately raised $1700 for The Little Red Dog Foundation”.
