Our biggest fundraiser of the year, You Grill Girl! was a smashing success.

Thank you to our chefs, sponsors and volunteers who helped raise over $55,000 to support our mission.

We host one of the most delicious nights in Austin, supporting scholarships and grants for women in culinary. This year’s prom theme wasn’t just about the slow dances—it’s was about the perfect sear with a cocktail (or mocktail) in hand.

As the night went on, the dance floor heated up just as much as the grill, turning the evening into a sizzling, smoky, and unforgettable prom night—BBQ style!
