Rise Biscuits Donuts

Join us for the Second Annual Big Biscuit Showdown on Thursday, July 27 from 6-9pm at The Rickhouse in Downtown Durham. This unique food competition features ten teams featuring Rise Biscuits Donuts chefs and a local brewery or beverage company. Each Rise chef will prepare a special biscuit and donut that will be paired with a beverage. You're invited to taste and judge the best biscuits, donuts and beverages to see who will take home the belt! All proceeds from the Big Biscuit Showdown will be donated to the Duke Cancer Institute through Give 1 For Dad, a local fundraising campaign to launch a clinical trial to test a novel approach to treat advanced prostate cancer patients.
