2023 Big T Memorial Cookoff is in the books! Thank you to all of our cook teams who continue to show up and show out with us every year.

Y’all are awesome! Thank you so much for coming out and supporting our cause.

This year we had some ups and downs, made some mistakes, learned some lessons, but, overall, we’re very proud of the work we put in this weekend! We got some great feedback from the teams and vendors, and we know what areas need a little tweaking, and we will put in the work to make next year an even bigger success. Thank you all for your patience during our growing pains.

Thank you to our awesome volunteer crew for showing up for us and loving us enough to work with us each year.

Thank you to an awesome line-up of vendors—they really rocked it!!

Thanks to everyone for coming out to Touch-A-Truck, our 42 Tournament, disc golf, and cornhole—we had a great turnout for all of our extra events!

And y’all—when we tell y’all these kids can cook, boy do we mean it! These kiddos showed out again this year, and definitely worked some magic with some ground beef! Thanks kids and parents for coming out to cook, we hope y’all had fun!

Steve Idlett and Jerrett Zoch wrapped up the night with an AWESOME song swap. If you missed it, then you really missed out on some great live entertainment. Get out and catch another show with them! You will not regret it.

Thank you to everyone who came out and shopped, hung out, bought a BBQ sandwich, judged some great BBQ, and just had a fun time! We hope y’all had a blast!

Please be patient with us about all the official results and pictures for all of the contests. We will post them as we can, all while still trying to catch our breath after such a huge weekend for our little crew.

We look forward to #BigT2024 and what the next year hold for us!

Thank you ALL again for a great time for a great cause!
