Thank you, Heath Riles BBQ , for the awesome prize pack donated to the Ryan King Benefit!
Big appreciation to Luke Darnell and Brian Corbett of the Pitmaster Podcast for hosting and supporting Ryan. The BBQ community always shows up. ❤️🔥
We can’t wait to unleash the ingredients from this prize pack on our ribs at this week’s Kansas City Barbeque Society competition. We’re rolling in with big flavor, big confidence, and the backing of one of the strongest names in BBQ — ready to make some noise.
