BBQ Festivals Provide Fun and
Great KCBS Competition

Festival Crowd

If you love BBQ like I do, you haven't lived the true "Q" experience until you have attended a legitimate KCBS sanctioned BBQ competition.

The best BBQ teams in the area are typically in attendance to compete for prizes, money and bragging rights.

This section of the website will allow organizers of these festivals the opportunity to post information and pictures about their BBQ festival.
