A Smokin' Good Time
Come Punkin' Chunkin' time in Clay County (Oct 19-20), a favorite food booth is also a major fund-raiser for Good Shepherd Episcopal Church in Hayesville. Holy Smokers is a non-profit ministry that raises funds exclusively for the church's Outreach ministry. Their mission statement is "Feeding God's people one Butt at a time."
Making use of Wally Figura's talent with meat, the ministry has operated since 2016 to supplement Good Shepherd's outreach budget (most of which goes back into the community) and to enjoy fun and good food with our friends and neighbors. Equipped with a commercial rotisserie smoker, the group can be found at such local events as Butts N Spuds, Punkin Chuckin, fish fries, charity golf tournaments, as well as offering occasional "Smokeouts" selling pre-ordered smoked butts, ribs ,brisket, corned beef, and lemon pepper chicken. Holy Smokers have won the 1st place Judges Award in "Butts and Spuds" competition and the People's Choice award for the "Punkin Chunkin' Chili Cook-off."
