WARREN MOELLER IS THE<br />

KING<br />

OF KINGS<br />

Barbeque champion earns<br />

state fair title, reclaims<br />

status in friendly cookoff<br />

BY NANCY MAYFIELD<br />

EASTERN IOWA FARMER<br />

It was a warm Saturday<br />

morning in June,<br />

and Warren Moeller<br />

hadn’t slept all night.<br />

While a line of thunderstorms had pummeled Bellevue in the<br />

late evening the day before and into the early morning, he’d kept<br />

the fire going on the smoker set up in the parking lot of Country<br />

Side Feed & Supply, a business which he recently acquired.<br />

Moeller, who also owns PMC Agri-Service in Miles, started the<br />

smoker at 11 p.m. the night before to cook beef brisket and pork<br />

ribs for customers to celebrate the store’s grand opening under<br />

new ownership.
