The pits have cooled, but the Rib Camp energy is still going strong!

Big thanks to the campers who trusted us with part of their weekend.

From rub foundation to final sauce, it’s always fun to see how each camper dials things in their own way.

Special thanks to one of our campers who brought a delicious German Chocolate Cake to share 🫶

Next up: two private Rib Camps in June!

Rib Camp goin' down this weekend!

It's more than just ribs. It's hands-on learning, and a flavor foundation that starts with Heath Riles BBQ.

From there, campers explore a full lineup of finishing options to dial in ribs their way.

Thank you to all the campers joining us. We’re ready to fire it up with you!

The flavor journey doesn't end at Rib Camp -- it begins there.

Your Rib Camp goody bag is anchored by Heath Riles BBQ and that must-have Garlic Jalapeno Rub. And a taste of every flavor in the line-up.

Plus some awesome rub from Three Little Pigs BBQ Products and sauce from SmokinGhost BBQ and Hoosier Daddy BBQ to keep the flavor going long after camp ends.

Goin' down at Rib Camp this weekend!

Every Rib Camp ends the same way. A friendly competition of six sets of ribs, all built a little differently.

One winner is our Grand Champion and takes home the lineup that helped them get there.

A big haul of flavor from Heath Riles BBQ: 3 rubs, 2 glazes and the iconic apron.

Goin' down at Rib Camp this weekend!
