FixDoor proudly participated in the 2026 Hill Country Builders Association BBQ Cook Off — and the results were nothing short of incredible.
The annual event brought together builders, trade partners, and community members from across the Texas Highland Lakes region for a day of friendly competition, great food, and meaningful connection. The cook off serves as a highlight event for the local building industry, strengthening relationships and celebrating craftsmanship — both on the job site and at the smoker.
Event Highlights
The 2026 BBQ Cook Off featured teams representing builders, subcontractors, suppliers, and local businesses competing across multiple barbecue categories. The atmosphere was energetic, welcoming, and rooted in Texas tradition.

The awards reflect the team’s dedication, preparation, and commitment to excellence — values that carry over directly into FixDoor’s service throughout Central Texas.
