Amateur BBQ Competition
During this year’s Pioneer Days, we are partnering with the Cache Community Food Pantry, to host the 2nd Annual Amateur BBQ competition in Northern Utah. Whether you like to cook or just eat, this event is perfect for you!
If you are a backyard smoke master and think you have what it takes to bring home the “beef,” register online as a pit team. The public is also welcome to come, taste, and help judge the People’s Choice Award. Those wishing to taste and judge the People’s Choice BBQ will need to purchase the $5 for 5 samples upgrade while supplies last.
