Teams
We appreciate and thank our cooking teams. By having a cooking team, your group or organization can promote itself, build teamwork, have fun, and reward your contributors, board members, and/or staff. After all, many of these same people may be into cooking, Rodeo, BBQ, and outdoor festivals, and they will be honored if you ask them to be a part of your cooking team! Great awards, trophies and bragging rights will be presented by celebrity judges to the winners!
