Steve Lang

Co-founder

I am honored to be the  founder, President, and CEO of Burnt Offerings BBQ.  I have a passion to help assist people and organizations in need to help improve their circumstances. I believe we should walk with people and organizations to help carry their burdens and show love to them as our neighbors. My hope is that Burnt Offerings BBQ always looks at the interest and circumstances of others and be a shining light during their darker times. I am proud we are an organization who comes together to feed so that we have the opportunity to bless others.

Libby Lang

Co-founder

Along with being a co-founder and Vice President of Burnt Offerings BBQ, I am a wife, mother, and a social worker who loves traveling and spending time with my family.  Because of my belief in helping people and wanting to see good in every situation, I serve on the board of Burnt Offerings BBQ. My favorite things about Burnt Offerings BBQ are the relationships that are formed during a cook and knowing that something as simple as food being served with a smile can make a significant impact in the life of an individual.

Our History

Burnt Offerings BBQ founders

The Calling

A few years ago, a desire to open a non-profit BBQ company was placed in founders Steven and Libby Lang’s heart to help others in need.

The Means

During Hurricane Harvey in August of 2017, Steven and Libby wished they could provide a way to bring meals to those who were impacted by Harvey, but at that time, they were unable to.  In the early part of 2018, the Lord began opening doors, so they began making preparations to open a new non-profit company called Burnt Offerings BBQ.

The Foundation

The plan was to begin operations in the summer of 2018 after their summer vacation had taken place.  All the legal documents were in order as of Tuesday, May 15, 2018, that authorized Burnt Offerings BBQ to accept donations and operate as a legal non-profit company.

The Tragedy

Then on May 18 the tragedy at Santa Fe High School happened. A shooter walked into the school and killed 10 people.  Santa Fe, Texas is where Steven and Libby call home and they knew they could not sit by and do nothing to help their community.

The Response

Steven quickly reached out to a pastor in Santa Fe who graciously opened his church to Burnt Offerings BBQ and a week after the tragedy, first responders from Santa Fe and the surrounding communities were served pulled pork, smoked chicken, sausage, beans, and potato salad.
