The 2023 Rodeo Uncorked and Best Bites winners.
It's time to pull out the Justins, Stetsons and turquoise jewelry. Rodeo Houston has begun its season of events, kicking off with Rodeo Uncorked Roundup & Best Bites Competition 2023 which took place at NRG Center February 19. Thousands of folks in Western finery filled the massive space, eager to try award-winning wines and delicious nibbles from some of Houston's best chefs and food purveyors.
I had Classic Rock Bob as my judging companion for the evening and we were joined at our table by former Houston Oilers defensive end, Sean Jones. Our smiling Rodeo volunteer, Jill, brought us plate after plate of appetizers, entree bites and wee desserts. With so many tasty plates being put in front of us and quickly whisked away, it was hard to keep up mentally with the flavors and the presentations.
After the judging, we walked around with our glasses of wine, trying to imagine eating more of the amazing bites available. It was no easy task after sampling so many treats at the judging table but we managed to grab a flavorful pork belly bao from the newly opened Jun by Kin and a sushi bite from TEN Sushi. I was blown away by the Popcorn and Butter candy from Cacao and Cardamom which won third place for the Two-Steppin' Dessert Award.
