The BBQ Report

Debbie writes to tell me that the Highland Rotary of Hudson Valley, NY is having its 2nd annual RibFest Aug. 18-20 at the Ulster County Fairgrounds in New Paltz, NY.

The RibFest features a KCBS-sanctioned grilling contest, along with demonstrations, a vendors’ row of BBQ-related items, lots of great BBQ vendors, music, kids activities and general good times. You can check out their “website”:http://www.hudsonvalleyribfest.org/ for the details.

Last year’s event drew a little over 5,000 people and raised thousands of dollars for local non-profits). I’m sure it will be a lot of fun.
