At a tent party, Adam runs into Bud, one of the greatest ropers in Calgary. After learning a few tricks, Adam shows a natural talent for lassoing girls.

One Calgary Stampede superfan shows Adam what he’s cooking up: bison short ribs and smoked elk sausage, all served with his homemade chutneys, salsa, and ketchup.

While most tent parties revolve around alcohol -- with a little food on the side -- the Roadhouse is home to 6 grills, plus lasso lessons, step dancing performances and even boot-shaped glasses of beer.

Adam spots the Naaco Truck, a food oasis mixing the culinary bests of both Indian and Mexican cuisine.

The food at the Calgary Stampede is anything but ordinary. Case in point, this gourmet mac and cheese.
