In 1990 a small group of forward thinking individuals got together with a dream for the Los Fresnos community. With God’s blessing, hard working people and a great community, the Los Fresnos Rodeo was formed. In 2018 the Rodeo Committee decided to host another event to bring another family-friendly event to the Lower Cameron County area and this is where the Los Fresnos Cowboy Cook Off was born. The Los Fresnos Cowboy Cook Off is a competitive event for cooking teams located all over the state of Texas and is sanctioned by the Champions Barbecue Alliance. We have had over 40 teams compete in this event in years past and we hope to continue hosting this event for many years to come.
