Congrats! I’m sticking around so i’m here to see you hit 1 million subs! Beautiful vid w/ beautiful thoughts………. We have neighbors who are about to have their first baby and you’ve inspired me to cook them a bunch of meals that I will then vacuum pack for them. Likewise in New York we have neighbors whose mother is ailing, and over the Fourth of July when our family gets together in New York to Bbq, I’m going to turn it into A tribal effort to do the same for this wonderful neighbor family. You really inspired me.

This weekend, we'll be serving lunch at our church in Fort Worth for baptisms. Although I’m not a restaurant professional, I’m a third-generation Church BBQ cook. Our all-volunteer team—self-funded at 50%—is dedicated to creating high-quality meals for the church, the community, and those in need. As our reputation grows with each event, I’m excited to share this video with our community. I believe it will inspire more people to volunteer. We all share a passion for serving others, building community, and enjoying fellowship around great food and fire.
