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.
63 rated teams sit within a point of this rating, so a place on this list means the numbers match — no more than that.
This is the highest they've ever been rated, 16 rated contests in — a team sitting at its own career peak.
⚔ Head-to-headTheir last contest in the data was back in 2019, 7 years before No Measurements BBQ's most recent — their rating stopped moving when they stopped cooking.
⚔ Head-to-headCareers of much the same size, 15 contests to 16, so neither rating has had more chance to settle than the other.
⚔ Head-to-head19 contests and no Grand Championship yet — a rating made of 5% top-10 finishes rather than wins.
⚔ Head-to-headLevel with No Measurements BBQ on power rating, which is the whole reason they're on the list.
⚔ Head-to-headThey were already cooking in 2013, 9 years before No Measurements BBQ's first contest.
