Voting Is Open in the Char Champion Competition
The Char Champion Competition not only celebrates cooking enthusiasts, but it also aims to raise awareness for the James Beard Foundation, a nonprofit organization that provides critical resources and support for independent restaurants to survive, rebuild, and thrive.
Chef Terry “BBQ Daddy” Matthews, a winner on Food Network’s Cutthroat Kitchen and owner of a successful catering business, will be hosting the Competition. YouTube sensation and cookbook author “Cowboy” Kent Rollins will make a few guest appearances as well.
Headlining sponsors for the Competition are Yoder Smokers, contributor of the grand-prize customized smoker trailer, and American Royal, contributor of the VIP experience for two at the World Series of Barbecue—including a place at open-seat judging and attendance at an exclusive private party. Yoder Smokers manufactures American-made barbecue grills and smokers, both for competitions and backyards. American Royal—a non-profit organization—aims to impact the future of agriculture through competitive learning, scholarships, education, and agriculture events.
Additional sponsors include iconic Kansas City barbecuers Jack Stack Barbecue; ThermoWorks, producer of durable, quality thermometers and tools that deliver accurate and safe results; Porter Road, a service delivering fully pasture-raised craft beef, pork, and chicken; and Kent Rollins’ lifestyle brand of cookware and cowboy-themed apparel.
Char Champion, LLC will donate a portion of the net proceeds from the Competition to the James Beard Foundation.
