What a weekend at the Pasadena Strawberry Festival for the It’s All Relative Cookers family ❤️🍓🔥
First and foremost, THANK YOU to every single person who came by our tent, bought wristbands, supported us, laughed with us, danced with us, helped us, sponsored us, cooked with us, or simply showed love all weekend long. None of this would be possible without our amazing supporters, sponsors, family, and friends. Y’all are truly what makes this team special.
We may not have hit every mark we hoped for, but we are proud of the hard work, long hours, teamwork, and heart that went into every category. Cook-offs humble you real quick… but they also remind you why you love doing it.
Huge congratulations to our team on the calls we did receive:
🥇 1st Place Hospitality – TEAM
🥈 2nd Place Chicken – Bubba
🔥 9th Place Cook’s Choice – Amber
🔥 12th Place Fajitas – Bobby
🔥 14th Place Brisket – Ronnie
🔥 14th Place Fajitas – Grayson
🔥 14th Place Desserts – Amber
🔥 18th Place Cook’s Choice – JC
🔥 23rd Place Ribs – Bobby
🔥 25th Place Desserts – Amber
Some weekends you win big. Some weekends you learn big. This one gave us a little of both — and we’re already ready to get back after it.
Thank you again for being part of the IARC family. We appreciate every one of you more than you know. ❤️🔥
