Heffys Rocket Hummus
This post was written by Mike Farag on October 20, 2010
A few weeks ago we were at the American Royal BBQ competition. Some of you may know that Heffys has taken home lots of awards in the sauce contest over the last 4 years. Let’s just say, 3 Time “Peoples Choice” Award, 3 “Top 10″ finishes among others…
So it’s no surprise that they asked us to come cook something with Heffys at the cooking demonstrations. We sent our CEO, Mike Farag, over to the Royal to be one of the chefs’ presenting that day, he happened to be right before Hell’s Kitchen winner, Holli Ugalde.
What did he make you ask….Heffys Rocket BBQ Hummus. Yeah that’s right. Hummus & BBQ. A match made in heaven, according to the over 100 people who watched eagerly as our boy combined all the elements most would never think to do.
Sound good? Trust us….it’s ROCKET good.
