The Golden Buckle foodie awards at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. RODEOHOUSTON
Houstonians are thrilled by the return of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. This year marks its 90th anniversary and celebrations have been in full force with the Rodeo Uncorked Best Bites, the Bar-B-Cue Contest and Tuesday, the Gold Buckle Foodie Awards.
We had the opportunity to sit with a variety of judges for the Gold Buckle awards from local radio and television hosts to Houston food writers and social media influencers. At one table sat an esteemed group of Houston chefs, some Top Chef and Master Chef competitors, that included Dawn Burrell, Evelyn Garcia, Aaron Bludorn, Suu Khin and Joseph Manglicmot.The event was held at The Ranch Saloon + Steakhouse from Berg Hospitality.
Our hosts welcomed us and we began the tasting and judging. In 2020, two days before the pandemic shut down the Houston Rodeo, the judges tasted different foods at each table. This year, the process was streamlined with the judges receiving the top three rodeo foods in each category that had already been voted on by the public.First up was the Best Fried Food. We began with the Fried Jambalaya Roll from Cajun Cowboys. It was a great start.
The second stick entry was the Beef K-BOB from Saltgrass Steakhouse. It was cooked quite on the rare side which left it extremely tender, easy to eat and it was well-seasoned. The Spice Corn Dog arrived late due to a back-up with the contestants from CornDog With No Name. They had three entries for the event so it was understandable. It was a simple corn dog with a tiny bit of heat from the jalapeno inside but what stood out was the perfectly fried and light batter.
Finally, the event was capped with Best Dessert. The Fried Red Velvet Cupcake from Sills Funnel Cakes wowed our table. The Chocolate Turtle Cookie Sandwich was fine but not a spectacular dessert. The Yellow Rose Funnel Cake was topped with a pretty yellow bloom but it had all of the judges wondering where the standout flavor was. We figured the drizzle of icing had a citrus hint but not enough to give it the edge.
