What We Do
Since early 2020, we have been perfecting our barbecue skills and benefiting the community by learning the craft of good barbecue and donating food to Washington, DC’s hungry via the kitchen at So Others Might Eat.
Our Mission
To build cameraderie among like-minded Washington, DC city high school students who like cooking outside and helping the community in the process.
“Meat the Need is at the crossroads between helping the public and learning culinary skills for life.”
