Chili for a Cure: Unite for Lucas

Get ready to bring the heat for a great cause! On Saturday, February 21 , 2026, Tin Roof BBQ will host Chili for a Cure: Unite for Lucas, bringing together community, family, and friends to support critical research for the very rare genetic syndrome Tatton Brown Rahman Syndrome (TBRS).

At the heart of this event is Lucas Richter, son of Kacee and Bobby and grandson to Tin Roof BBQ owners Ronnie and Nancy Webber. Lucas was diagnosed with TBRS at just 3 years old. This rare genetic condition affects only about 450 people worldwide, causing overgrowth, intellectual disabilities, and serious health risks. Lucas’ story reminds us all why research, awareness, and community support matter so deeply.

Enter the Cook-Off

Think your chili has what it takes? Register for $100 and compete for the $500 Grand Prize (2nd Place $300, 3rd Place $100)!

Cooks can start arriving at 7:00 a.m. to set up and prepare their best chili recipe on-site.
Each participant will have a 10x10 space for their tent, table, and cooking area.
Judging will crown 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners —but the real winners are the families supported through TBRS research.

Not a Cook? Join the Fun!

You don’t have to cook to make a difference. Come out and enjoy:

A Silent Auction packed with exciting items (bidding opens on-site)
Family-friendly fun at Tin Roof BBQ; playground
Opportunities to support the cause through sponsorships that directly fund TBRS research

Every dollar raised will go to TBRS Research, helping us move closer to treatment options for Lucas and others living with TBRS.

So mark your calendars, fire up your taste buds, and join us on Saturday, February 21st at Tin Roof BBQ for a day of great food, community spirit, and purpose. Together, we can cook up hope for Lucas and every family impacted by TBRS.
