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.
HLSR WCBBQ-CHAMPION, JASPER COUNTY GO TEXAN has 1 rated contest — short of the five it takes to earn a power ranking — so this rating has barely moved off the 1500 every team starts on and 114 rated teams sit within a point of it. Read the list as the nearest company at a number nobody here has moved far from, not as a verdict on who this team belongs with.
Their last contest in the data was back in 2018, 5 years before HLSR WCBBQ-CHAMPION, JASPER COUNTY GO TEXAN's most recent — their rating stopped moving when they stopped cooking.
