BUYER BEWARE! Do not get anything from VEVOR Home Improvement I’ve gone back and forth with this company through multiple emails, and all I ever hear is ‘it has shipped, waiting for tracking.’ This has been happening since early November 2025. If you actually receive your product, good luck getting any replacement, the customer service is absolutely HORRIBLE

What an enjoyable weekend!

This was a special one in 2025, with Jack finishing high school and preparing to join the military next year. With the rising costs of packaging and products, and being busy at work, I had to make the tough decision to sunset our seasonings line and only take on catering during slower weeks . But moments like this weekend remind me exactly why it’s all worth it ❤️🔥.

I had a blast hanging out with fellow BBQ competitors, their families, and friends 😎🍗. Huge shoutout to for putting on such an awesome event 🙌!

Spending time with my son was the highlight of it all . I’m always so thankful for my wife, my mother-in-law, and all our amazing friends who jump in and support us ❤️💪. Seeing my rankings go up felt great 🏆. I don’t try to beat others, I compete against myself!

And honestly, feeding the public is what I love most 🍴💖. The people around the valley showed up strong! Big thanks to for hosting such an amazing time 🎉.

🔥 Love to BBQ and love the people! Thanks to all and see you at the 2026 winter and spring events! 🔥👋
