Have made several updates to www.bbq-festivals.com including a new festival in Kentucky in October called the Kentucky Crossroads Harvest Festival that will have a bbq competition.

A new cookoff in New York………this is the first bbq competition we have listed for the state of New York.  In August the Long Island BBQ Cook Off takes place…….. looks like it will be a good event to attend if you are in the New York area.

We are also waiting for news for a new event in Ohio called the Monster BBQ Pit Build Off. You have heard of Monster House and Trick My Truck…….well this looks like it could be barbecues version of trick my smoker.  Stay tuned for more info. Even will be held in June of 2009 in Mount Vernon, OH.

BBQ-Festivals.com has also added an eBay BBQ Search Block on our opening page about half way down……if you are looking for some good deals on bbq related equipment and general bbq “stuff” then you can check out eBay straight from our site.

Tomorrow is the Fourth of July - Happy Independence Day and let’s celebrate our FREEDOM……….. it certainly has cost our nation dearly.  Be Safe and have FUN.

I was playing with my MotoQ cell phone yesterday and looking at some websites just to see what they looked like. Guess what………….. if you are on the road and you are looking for a bbq festival, restaurant or competition you can access www.bbq-festivals.com and find them. The format is a little off due to screen size but if you can still see all the festival dates and locations along with links to their sites. The same goes for competitions and restaurants and the rest of the site for that matter. I am probably going to experiment with some formatting and in the near future provide a section of the website that fits mobile devices bettter.

So, the next time you are on the road and you are looking for some great bbq, just hit the internet on your cell phone and there you go…………….. enjoy.

Steve from the Park Avenue Pork Barbeque Competition Team in Kansas City writes to BBQ-Festivals.com saying “Can’t belive you’d call this a reference page of BBQ Competitions and Festivals without having the grand daddy of all BBQ competitions on the list”.

Well Steve…….  there you go……….  We have added the 29th Annual American Royal Barbecue in Kansas City slated for October 2-5, 2008 to our competition listings page.  We have also added the Park Avenue Pork Barbeque Competition Team to our bbq teams page.

Thank you Steve for the info………….much appreciated.

Hello everyone and welcome to the 2008 BBQ season. The schedule of bbq festivals and bbq competitions has been updated at our main website, BBQ-Festivals.com

Not all festivals and competitions have updated their information but we are in the process of contacting each of them for updates. We are also trying to get a schedule of all KCBS sanctioned bbq events for 2008 so they will be easily identified on our directory.

If you know of a bbq festival or cookoff/competition that we have missed, please send us the information so we can update for everyone.
