Next Food Network Star Championship FINALS !!

Congratulations to Mr. Aaron McCargo Jr. for making it into the championship finals of the Next Food Network Star. After a mixed performance during the most recent Las Vegas NFNS episode... Aaron survived the judges cut (of course he did.. ever taste those crab cakes?) and he will participate in the championship battle in New York City to be aired on July 27, 2008. His opponents are Lisa Garza from Dallas and Adam Gertler of Philadelphia, PA; the two other finalists.

Good Luck Aaron - Show them your true spirit !!

Aaron had an excellent feature in the Courier post speaking about his semi-celebrity status. Here's a video link.

I almost forgot. Happy Birthday .... 37 years young and still pumping out killer food. Long life to you and your family.

Aaron, we truly enjoyed watching the show and we were praying for you here in Houston, Texas. You have some dedicated followers here in Houston, Texas. What a blessing it is to see a Black man making it big. You are an inspiration to all of us African Americans. Hey man, keep up the great work...and you food looks wonderful. We wish you and your family so much success.

Congratulations on winning and getting your own show. You seem much more relaxed now that the contest is over than you ever did on the show.

Glad you got a shot.
