YOUR 2026 THE LEW ULTIMATE GRILL MASTER BBQ CHAMPION! 🔥🏆
Today, I had the pleasure of competing in my FIRST-EVER rib competition at One Community Church’s Annual LEW Men’s BBQ — Men Making an Impact Together… and I walked away with the #1 SPOT! 🥇🍖🔥
Man… this feeling is CRAZY!
I’m always second-guessing myself and my skills at times, wondering if what I’m doing is really good enough. But TODAY, I put that fear and doubt behind me, trusted myself, trusted the process, and went for it!
And WE DID IT! 🙏🏾🏆
First, I have to thank my beautiful wife ❤️. You believed in me and cheered me on through this whole process—even while I was running around the house going crazy trying to get everything together! 😂 Your support means more to me than you’ll ever know.
A HUGE thank you to Mr. Daryl Walker, AKA Sweeties Bar-B-Q! 🔥🍖 This man was almost 5 HOURS AWAY and still took the time to coach me, give me advice, and help me prepare. Having that type of support in your corner is priceless. Much respect! 💯🤝🏾
And this next part means everything to me…
Grandma, this one is for YOU. ❤️🕊️
I know you were up above smiling down on me today. I could almost hear you saying:
“You go, grandson!”
Then calling all the family and your friends saying, “Baby, my grandson showed OUT today, do you hear me, honey?!” 😂❤️
I felt your presence the entire time, Grandma. I know you were right there with me. This win has your name written all over it. 🙏🏾🕊️
Today wasn’t just about winning a BBQ competition.
It was about believing in myself.
It was about overcoming fear.
It was about trusting the gift God gave me.
And it was about realizing just how blessed I am to have people in my corner who believe in me—even when I’m questioning myself.
So yeah… I’m going to enjoy this one! 😤🔥🏆
#1 IN MY FIRST RIB COMPETITION! 🥇
Allow me to introduce myself…
