There's still time to support your cook team and win a free cook-off spot at next year's cook-off!
That's a wrap! On April 5-6th, the Houston commercial construction industry came together for AGC Houston's 32nd Annual BBQ Cook-Off. Thank you to all of the participating teams, sponsors, volunteers, and attendees for making the event a huge success. This year's event raised funds for Covenant House, a non-profit that provides housing and support services to youth facing homelessness. The cook team that raises the most funds to support Covenant House gets a free cook-off spot at next year's event. There's still an opportunity for you to donate to support your cook team by clicking here. The donations portal will close on Friday, April 12, 2024.
