Coles Crossing Dads Club to Host 8th Annual BBQ Cook-Off on November 7

Family Fun, Great Food, and a Community Cause Come Together in One Sizzling Event

One of Coles Crossing’s favorite traditions is back and bigger than ever! The Eighth Annual Coles Crossing Dads Club BBQ Cook-Off, proudly presented by Lester - Warren Team Realtor Associates, is set for Saturday, November 7 at the Community Lap Pool parking lot — and everyone in the neighborhood is invited to join the fun.

More than just a barbecue, this beloved event has become a fall staple, bringing the neighborhood together for food, family fun, and a shared community mission. This year’s Cook-Off features an exciting mix of activities for all ages. Thanks to a partnership with the HOA Events Committee, kids can enjoy a video game truck, bounce houses, and face painting — all completely free of charge.

In addition to the lead sponsorship from Lester-Warren Team Realtor Associates, this event is made possible thanks to the generous support of our other sponsors, including: Cypress Trading, Telge Auto, Starr Air & Refrigeration, Lone Star Pest Control, VillaSport – Cypress, Designs by Jenny, Joe the Plumber, Veda Massage, Moore & Company Electric, Valve Accessories and Controls, Salon Strain, Tune Up - The Manly Salon, Freckles Children’s Boutique, and Cypress Yard Greetings.

The entertainment doesn’t stop there. Live music from Mid-Life Riot will set the stage throughout the afternoon.

On the grill, expect some fierce but friendly competition. Cook teams will go head-to-head in four delicious categories: Ribs, Brisket, Chicken/Poultry, and a creative Wild Card round. Combined scores from these categories will determine this year’s Grand Champion, while guests get to take part by voting for their favorite in the People’s Choice contest using special event tickets.

Interested in competing? This year, competing is better (and tastier) than ever — this year we will provide a $100 stipend for every Cook Off team competing in all categories! Details will be emailed to contestants after registering. Organizers are looking to expand the field and welcome new pitmasters to throw their hat into the ring. Whether you’re a seasoned smoker or a backyard BBQ rookie, now’s the time to show Coles Crossing what you’ve got.

As always, proceeds from the event will benefit a local cause, continuing the Dads Club’s commitment to giving back. So come out for the fun, stay for the food, and support a great community tradition.

Mark your calendars, invite your neighbors, and come hungry — we’ll see you there!
