The PNWBA has been THEE most active competition BBQ sanctioning body leading the way in this endeavor throughout the Northwest for more than a quarter of a century. Over our history, there have been select members who have led the way in maintaining and building our organization into what it's become. They've given almost endlessly. They've been among the first to rise when needed. They've carried our name far and wide and they've been behind the scenes, "in the trenches" getting it done so all of us could enjoy the judging, cooking, educational and charitable events we continue to enjoy today.

Some years ago, the PNWBA established a HALL OF FAME to recognize those most valuable members and have inducted and honored over 30 that answered that call with their time and energy.

Annually, we reach out and call for any new nominees from members in good standing. It's that time. If you feel someone should be so honored, the Board of Directors would appreciate your nomination, now. To nominate such a person, please email Jane Biehl at president@pnwba.com not later than October 20th.

Previous Hall of Fame honoree’s, are listed on our website under the HONORS tab.

Your comments about that person's contributions would also aid the discussion and process to approve an honoree.
