Gray: Major new BBQ festival announced
People in the South are especially passionate about their barbecue, so the Rotary Club of Johnson City is bringing in a major barbecue competition to the Appalachian Fairgrounds May 22-23.
It’s called Northeast Tennessee Battle of the Pigs BBQ Cook-off & Car Show and will be an officially sanctioned event of the Kansas City Barbeque Society. In addition to the barbecue competition, there will be a major car show, live music, kids’ activities and vendors and arts and crafts.

Yea, count me in on that one! Not a huge BBQ fan myself, but the rest of it sounds like fun, and close to home too.

We will be heading back to New York on the 22nd and in 2010, it is my plan to visit in July to see how I do with the humidity.........dang!!  Last October, we had a great lunch at the Ridgewood, so I know we like bbq.
There is a chicken wing cook-off in Buffalo each summer, which sounds very similar to this event, but I haven't been since I dislike both Buffalo and chicken wings!!
Spring is in sight  Jan

Sorry, I can be a food snob and bbq just isn't me LOL! However, I really did enjoy Ridgewood when we all went, so I guess I like some bbq, just not always my first choice.

Oh well, I can't say much. I don't really like tea. At all.
