COMPETITION: World Noodle Championship
Tina Crutchfield and her husband, Rocky, make up the culinary competition team, Hot Stuff Cantina, and are currently crowned 2025 World Soup Champions and had the distinct pleasure of competing at the Final Table in Bentonville, Arkansas. Since 2006, they have created culinary magic with original signature dishes such as Agave Chili Verde and Carne Asada Chimichanga Soup, to name a few. With dozens of first-place wins and countless other awards, certificates, and medals to their credit, placing Top 10 in seven of the eight years, and securing 3 3rd place wins. One 2nd place in the past World Food Championships, this year we are competing in the Soup category for the second year. They cannot be more excited for this challenge. This year is going to be epic, as this is the Thirteenth year the team has participated in the Super Bowl of Food Sport, and this just may be their year to take home the big prize.
