It’s nice to know that Jack Sammons has landed on his feet.

After a lengthy career as a Memphis city councilman, Sammons is now filling the hours (well, some of them, anyway) as a judge at the Memphis in May World Championship Barbecue Cooking Contest.

I could be wrong about this, but I'm thinking Sammons’ years on the council were probably pretty good training for his current gig.

After all, both jobs involve dealing with a lot of pork.
