Ribfest wasn't the only meat celebration in the area last weekend. 

The Chopping Block, the city's largest school for home cooks, hosted their annual grilling show Saturday in Lincoln Square. 

Chefs rubbed down ribs and even created pizzas with products available at the school while the smell of smoked chicken, jalapeño poppers, and fruit drifted through Giddings Plaza.
