It's open to the public and will feature a sampling tent with marinade and tailgate-inspired items, along with steaks cooked by nationally-acclaimed competition cooks.

Awards will take place at 5 p.m.

According to a press release, this includes a private seating area, competition samples, a steak made-to-order from The Venue’s executive chef, a potato bar, salad and a sampling of a newly-launched energy drink, "Legend."

The purchase also qualifies VIPs for a raffle to win a Hasty Bake Charcoal Grill.
