My New Bacon Sponsor:
I’m happy to announce that my new bacon sponsor for World Food Championships 2019 is B & B Butchers & Restaurant!
(Located at 1814 Washington Street, Houston, Texas).
I’m so honored and proud to accept B&B Butchers sponsorship for my third year competing in the Bacon Category at WFC 2019. I will be using B&B Butcher’s delicious in-house smoked bacon making two stunning signature bacon recipes this year, and will also be making a Very Bacon Bloody Mary appetizer for my required Bacon Structure Build. I’m bringing my A-Game, ready to win again and regain my title as Bacon World Champion this October.
To all the folks at B&B Butchers & Restaurant, thank you for taking the chance on me.
About B&B Butchers and Restaurant:
Listed below is an excerpt shared by Benjamin Berg, proprietor of B&B Butchers & Restaurant, discussing their background and mission to provide a quality product to all of their customers:
“My goal was to bring to Houston a first-class neighborhood butcher shop with an intense focus on customer service,” said Benjamin Berg, proprietor of B&B Butchers & Restaurant, named after a lineage of butchers beginning with his great-grandfather. “Our staff knows everything about the various cuts and can educate customers right across the counter.”
Berg Hospitality Group
B&B Butcher’s Houston location is winner of Open Table-Diner’s Choice Award 2018. B&B Butcher’s also operate a location in Forth Worth, Texas.
For the past few months, I’ve been working closely with Emily Hanley, Director of PR & Marketing, and Ken Laszlo, Butcher/Operations Director, to build a happy bacon relationship in order to procure the best bacon cuts for this year’s World Food Championships. Laszlo and Hanley are both knowledgeable in their respective fields, and incredibly gracious in the process of my first exclusive sponsorship with their company. By utilizing their incredible products, I’ll be creating nothing but the finest bacon recipes at WFC.
Developing new bacon friends and sponsors is the best! I hope to make them proud and literally, bring home the bacon this year!
