We had the honor of competing in the Detroit United Group Cook Off this weekend, and man, what a ride! Feeding good people, catching up with friends, and playing with fire—it doesn't get much better than this.
When the smoke cleared:
🕵️♂️ 1st place Friday Night Mystery Meat ( they surprised us with surf and turf)
🍗 6th place Chicken (bock bock 🐔)
🐖 3rd place Pork (We'll gladly take that walk! 🚶♂️)
🥓 1st place Ribs (Dialed in 📞🔥)
🐂 4th place Brisket (Always keeping us humble 👑)
🫘 Beans: Let’s just say... sometimes you are your own worst enemy. 🤦♂️ (Lesson learned!)
🍰 8th place Dessert (Super tight scores in this category, proud of it! 📈)
When it was all said and done, it was good enough to bring home the big one...
🏆🏆🏆 2026 GRAND CHAMPION! 🏆🏆🏆
BACK-TO-BACK Grand Champions for '25 and '26! 🔄
Huge congratulations to Bubba J Boogerweed for a hard-fought Reserve Grand Champion, and congrats to everyone who got to walk today!
