Best of luck to our 2025 competitors!

COMPETITION: World Live Fire Championship


Growing up, we have always been drawn to good food. We grew up cooking with our families, and continued this once we got to college. What started as us cooking for friends on the weekends led to us winning the Red Raider Meats Ribeye Championship, and we are excited to compete at the WFC.
