Football Hall of Fame Inductees Road to the Super Bowl Cook Off

Join The Ramp for a one-of-a-kind Football-Grill Off experience as Live Fire Republic hosts and films the Football Hall of Fame Legends BBQ Battle—a high-energy, tailgate-style cooking competition pairing NFL Legends with World Champion Pitmasters, captured live from 9:00 AM–1:00 PM.

Teams go head-to-head for pride, charity, and the BBQ Battle Grand Championship—where smoked meats meet Super Bowl stories and the food is as real as the legends at the grills.

VIP guests enjoy a lineup of Michelin and James Beard–recognized bites from Chef Matt Horn of Horn BBQ, Chef David W Olson, and Chef Chris Ricketts of the Flamingo Resort. The event benefits Mike Ditka’s Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund, supporting retired players facing mental, physical, and financial hardship.

Part live studio taping, part culinary spectacle, and part world-class tasting! This is where sports history, open flames, and next-level food collide for oneunforgettable experience.
