Unlike the typical fundraiser, the food at Ribs & 'Ritas is not provided by a caterer. This is not a rubber-chicken dinner! The food is not cooked off-site and warmed at the ranch. This is what makes Ribs & 'Ritas unique!
The BBQ at this event is cooked by some of the best competition BBQ cookers in the state of Texas. These are cooks who compete throughout the year in sanctioned cook-offs, working hard to beat each other every weekend.
​
