14th Annual Beast Feast 

Welcome to the 14th annual Beast Feast, hosted November 13th and 14th, 2026 by CrossRoads Gang 10 miles east of Windthorst, Texas. Our weekend-long barbecue competition unites grill masters, families, and friends under one shared motto: Helping Veterans through the CrossRoads of Life!

Gates open Friday at 5:00 pm featuring our Margarita Cook-off at 7:00 pm, Steak Cook-off at 8:00 pm, and DJ Raymond keeping the energy high all evening. Saturday kicks off at 8:00 am with the CrossRoads Gang Gravel Ride at 10:00 am, team meeting at 10:15 am, and championship turn-ins throughout the day: Beans (11:00 am), Half Chicken (12:30 pm), Ribs (2:00 pm), and Brisket (3:30 pm). Enjoy live tunes from Luke and the Other Guys at 2:00 pm, a kids bounce house, full concessions, silent auctions, and our 5:00 pm awards ceremony honoring colors with the Legacy High School JROTC.
