Beautiful people, this is the full list of the virtual Juneteenth Cookout Takeover! This initiative was created to celebrate Juneteenth – a jubilee of freedom to commemorate the end of slavery – and amplify 40+ amazing Black culinary creatives, and showcase their unique and innovative recipes. Juneteenth (a merge of the words/date June Nineteenth) marks the date in 1865 that the last enslaved people learned of their freedom. For over 150 years since, Black American families, home cooks, chefs, and culinarians have commemorated the summer holiday with a wide range of food traditions that tell a story of the perseverance of a people.
