The nearest teams in the power rankings, with a different reason on each card — six teams on one rating are rarely on it for the same reason. Rating decides who makes the list; where teams tie on it, the ones this team has actually cooked against come first, then teams at a similar point in their own career. KCBS doesn’t publish where a team is from, so nothing here is inferred from geography.
This is the highest they've ever been rated, 18 rated contests in — a team sitting at its own career peak.
⚔ Head-to-headFewer contests behind them than Porkaholics Barbeque has cooked, 13 to 20, which makes theirs the less settled rating of the two.
⚔ Head-to-headLevel with Porkaholics Barbeque on power rating, which is the whole reason they're on the list.
⚔ Head-to-headThis is the highest they've ever been rated, 9 rated contests in — a team sitting at its own career peak.
⚔ Head-to-head47 contests and no Grand Championship yet.
⚔ Head-to-headOne contest in common so far: too few to settle anything, but a team Porkaholics Barbeque has actually stood beside rather than a stranger on the same rating.
