The 2nd Annual Smoke & BBQ Festival Lunch took place September 12, 2024 in the Kitchens and it was a HIT! Students were able to experience authentic BBQ and options such as smoked brisket, dry rubbed ribs, pickled cucumbers, and more. From the bundles of greenery displayed throughout to the “Backyard BBQ” photo opportunity with the iconic Gordon Ramsay, the attention to detail was phenomenal! The fan-favorite of the event was the Create Your Own Sauce bar. From sweet and tangy sauce to Nashville hot sauce, students could create a sauce that satisfied their taste buds. And to finish it off, Culinary Services provided decadent strawberry shortcake desserts that ended the event off right. The Smoke & BBQ Festival is a favorite amongst students, and we’re definitely hoping for a return next year as well!
