BBQ With a Bigger Purpose
Good Food. Great Cause. Real Impact.
Every year, thousands of families hear the words no parent should ever hear: “Your child has cancer.”
At that moment, everything changes — emotionally, financially, and forever.
That’s why Porktoberfest proudly supports Hogs for the Cause, a nonprofit helping families of children battling pediatric brain cancer and other critical illnesses. Through grants, housing, and hospital partnerships, they ease the burden so parents can focus on what matters most — being there for their child.
Our Mission
We’re not just a BBQ team. We’re a crew of pitmasters, friends, and families turning passion into purpose — one plate at a time.
Last year, Porktoberfest raised over $75,000, contributing to the record-breaking $5 million raised by Hogs for the Cause. This year, we’re aiming higher — and we can’t do it without you.
