At the Cross BBQ

He is not here; He has risen. ✝️

Standing in awe at the empty tomb—reminded that hope is alive, grace is real, and victory has already been won. No matter what we face, the stone has been rolled away.

First BBQ competition in the books! 🔥🍖

Chicken didn’t get a call this time, but that just means there’s work to do… and I’m ready for it. 💪

On the bright side—brought home my very first call with **Wild Child ribs** landing **6th place**! 🏆 That moment made it all worth it.

Thank you again to Joe with Rough Cut Q for the Drip E Z tub. Special thank you to Todd for putting on a great event, Rekindled Ironman BBQ. Thank you to Aaron with MRC BBQ for tips and tricks on trimming. Big shout outs to Josh with Leaning Jowler for his continued support and always checking in on me, Uncle Dubby with Uncle Dubby’s BBQ for all his help and support along this journey, and last but not least Jake with Oink and Doink for popping up today!

Learned a ton, had a blast, met some awesome people along the way, and reconnected on the competition end with people who I have had the pleasure of judging for. Already looking forward to the next one—hungrier and more fired up than ever. Let’s go!! 🔥
