Local Oilfield Companies Raise $1,200 for Back to School Supplies for Sundown ISD Students On Saturday, July 30th, a group of "roughnecks" competed in a brisket and rib smoke off! Oilfield companies from Falcon Energy Services, Graco, Maxpsi, Sundown Tubing Testing, R7 Wireline, Key Energy, Valor and Oxy put their smoking skills to the test as they competed for the honor of the Inaugural brisket and rib smoke off! Competitors began smoking their ribs and brisket on Friday night, and turned in their best on Saturday morning at 11 AM. 3 members of Sundown ISD were asked to judge and rank the ribs and brisket. "We know how tough it can be for families to come up with money for school supplies, so we wanted to help out. Hopefully we can do this again next year, and make it bigger and better with more companies involved so that we can donate more money to the school" stated Ramon Rodriguez. Danny Randolph was the overall champion placing 1st in both ribs and brisket! His ribs and brisket were absolutely amazing, but even more amazing was his generosity as he unselfishly donated his $600 prize money back to the school to help with school supplies! What a great gesture from a very generous man. In total, the brisket & rib smoke off donations totaled $1,200 to Sundown ISD.
