Enter to Win a Brisket From South Austin Oral Surgery

Many people following us on Facebook and Instagram have asked how they can get their hands on one of the briskets smoked by Dr. Raju. Most of the briskets featured in our posts and stories have been made for dental offices who have supported us since we have opened. Those one, two, or more referrals by these offices make all the difference for a small office such as ours. However, this month we want to do something different. We are going to giveaway a brisket to one of followers on social media.

What do you win?

The prize is a USDA Prime packer brisket smoked by Dr. Raju. Most of these briskets start off at about 12-15 pounds, but after some trimming and smoking end up around 6-9 pounds. More than enough to feed 10-20 people. As we are always looking to improve our briskets, so one or two servings may be taken by Dr. Raju and his staff for quality control purposes. The brisket will be smoked on August 27 and be delivered or picked up at our office by the winner on August 28 during lunch. We can deliver 5 miles from our office.

How do I enter?

Who can enter?

Any business or individual may enter once on Facebook and once on Instagram. If your entry is considered valid, we’ll like your entry and assign you a number for the raffle. Delivery is possible 5 miles from our office, otherwise the winner will need to pick up the brisket from our office on August 28, 2023 at lunch.
