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, 25 rated contests in — a team sitting at its own career peak.
⚔ Head-to-headFewer contests behind them than ANTWERPS BBQ-TEAM has cooked, 33 to 53, which makes theirs the less settled rating of the two.

⚔ Head-to-headTheir last contest in the data was back in 2022, 4 years before ANTWERPS BBQ-TEAM's most recent — their rating stopped moving when they stopped cooking.
