Congratulations to Hutchins BBQ, winner of our 2014 reader poll.

We asked, and you answered, loudly. We sought to find out our readers' favorite barbecue joint in all of greater Dallas-Fort Worth. We started with a list of more than two dozen local favorites, and after four rounds of voting and more than 62,000 ballots cast, the winner is ... Hutchins BBQ.

Hutchins beat out Hard Eight BBQ in our hard-fought final round, 52.3 percent to 47.7 percent.

Congratulations to Hutchins BBQ, and thanks to everyone who voted. Congratulations are also due for Twitter user Steven Hunt who won our bonus contest and gets to join our friends in the Texas BBQ Posse for a meal at Hutchins. (We'll be in touch, Steve.)

Now, let's all go out and eat some brisket!
