We traveled to Cameron, MO this weekend for the 2026 Cameron Elks BBQ Cook Off, and we had so much fun! 🧡🖤
We got there Friday morning and jumped right into cooking dinner for the Elks Lodge while also getting ready to vend to the public. In the middle of all that, we decided to go head-to-head in the one-meat rib competition… and guess who won?! 👀
If you guessed Ashton Christine Smith, you’d be right! 😂🙋♀️ She took home 5th place ribs! 🏆
💁♀️🔥
Then came Saturday and the Masters Cook! We turned in four solid boxes-with a little help from our box runner, Charles Winslow-Bey, who came to hang out with us for a bit!
🐖 1st Place Pork with a PERFECT 180!!! 💯🔥
🐔 Won our chicken table and finished 20th 🤨
🐮 2nd on our brisket table and finished 24th 🤔
🐷 12th Place Ribs
🏆 11th Overall!
It was a great weekend filled with lots of cooking, laughs, friends, and BBQ! Thank you, Carl Mcbee and crew, for putting on another great year-we had so much fun and can’t wait to come back! 🧡🖤🔥
A huge thank you to our amazing sponsors, Royal Oak Charcoal and Make it Meaty, for continuing to support us and help make weekends like this possible! We couldn’t do what we do without you! 🔥🧡🖤
