Fire up the Grill! Porter’s Grilled returns for an epic champion showdown

Summer in Fremont County comes with a familiar soundtrack: sizzling burgers, smoky grills, and neighbors gathering for one of Riverton’s favorite traditions.

Porter’s Grilled is back for its 4th Annual Grilled Event on Saturday, June 20, 2026, from 11 am to 3 pm at Porter’s in Riverton, and this year’s competition is bringing the heat in a big way.

For the first time, the champions from the past three Grilled competitions are returning for an all-out battle of backyard barbecue glory. Think of it as the grilling equivalent of a heavyweight title fight… with spatulas.

The Champions Are Back

Returning to defend their reputations behind the grill:

  • Patrick Edwards – 2023 Grilled Champion
  • Mike Chingman – 2024 Grilled Champion
  • Chris Warren – 2025 Grilled Champion

Three former winners. Three grilling styles. One smoky showdown.

Fans can expect mystery ingredients, creative cook-offs, burger battles, and enough competitive trash talk to season the entire parking lot. These grill masters already know how to handle the pressure, but only one will earn ultimate bragging rights as Porter’s Grilled Champion of Champions.

Free Food, Family Fun, and Summer Vibes

No Porter’s Grilled event would be complete without great food, and Porter’s will once again serve a FREE lunch while supplies last. Get there early and bring your appetite!

Bring the family, grab a plate, and enjoy an afternoon packed with summer fun, including fun for the kids:

  • Ducky Spa
  • Bounce House
  • Face painting by Face Painting Pro

Whether you’re a serious barbecue enthusiast, a burger connoisseur, or simply looking for the perfect way to spend a summer Saturday, Porter’s Grilled has become a can’t-miss Fremont County tradition.
