Biography

Hello from Centreville, Maryland. I’m Ed Gent with Do it Gently BBQ. DiG BBQ was formed in 2015. My Uncle, Ernie Gent, and son, Zach Gent, joined me. And in 2024 my granddaughter, Harper Mitchell, joined us and won her first competition entered, helping round out Team Do it Gently BBQ. DiG BBQ competes in the Kansas City Barbecue Society, Steak Cookoff Association, and other BBQ competitions throughout the Mid-Atlantic region. We have competed in more than 12 states in the KCBS and SCA. DiG BBQ is also a catering company serving Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New York, which keeps us busy when we’re not competing. Do it Gently BBQ looks forward to the next competition season using only the best charcoal made, The Good Charcoal!
