For the seventh year, a team from this region, who call themselves iQue, competed at the Jack Daniels Barbecue competition in Lynchburg, Tenn. This year they won! Led by pit master Chris Hart of Hopkinton (above, second from left), iQue, who cooked on a custom-built Jambo Pit, was sponsored by Harpoon Brewery and Wicked Good Charcoal.

On Nov. 15, iQue is working with Harpoon to host Harpoon Helps Pre-Thanksgiving Beer-B-Q, an event that costs $60, which buys five turkeys for the Greater Boston Food Bank.

Attend the event, and you get to donate to the Food Bank and feast on this:

APPETIZERS
Burnt Ends on Texas Toast
Pulled Pork Canapés
Jalapeno Poppers
Championship Poon Dogs
Coconut Shrimp
Butternut Squash Bisque

DINNER

Southern Cornbread and Fatty Sausage Stuffing
Garlic Smashed Maine Potatoes
Collard Greens with Smoked Slab Bacon, Maple Syrup
Smoked Pumpkin and Root Vegetable Gratin
Grandma Wolff's Cole Slaw
