Description
Experience the Thrill of the Grill at the 7th Annual Dupont BBQ Cookoff in DuPont, WA!
This August 24th and 25th, prepare to be part of one of the greatest BBQ events in the Pacific Northwest, as DuPont, Washington, proudly hosts the 7th Annual Dupont BBQ Cookoff. A major event sanctioned by the Kansas City BBQ Society (KCBS), this premier cookoff is expected to draw a crowd of over 5,000 enthusiasts from all over the region. With the combined efforts of Tom Riggs and the American Legion Post 53 Pat Tillman Memorial at the helm, this event is not just a competition but a vibrant festival celebrating the art of barbecue.
Come get some world class BBQ!
Set against the backdrop of the beautiful Clocktower Park, DuPont is transformed into a barbecue paradise, where smoky aromas and sizzling sounds create an irresistible call to all food lovers. The event not only showcases some of the best BBQ talents but also serves as a key fundraiser supporting local youth programs. These include educational awards and scholarships, Boys and Girls State programs, and local youth sports teams, making it a cause worth supporting while indulging in great food.
BBQ - visit the American Legion tent, buy your BBQ bucks. Use your BBQ bucks to visit each BBQ competitor.
Competitors will serve meats including their world class ribs, pulled pork, chicken and brisket. Many competitors have specialty sides that you will love from their mac and cheese to BBQ beans and more! As an example one competitor will serve two ribs for $3 to $4. Sides can be $1-$2 each. This gives you the opportunity to try multiple competitors until you're full!
A Weekend Packed with Family Fun and Festivities
Promising fun for all ages, the Dupont BBQ Cookoff is designed to entertain. The City of DuPont and the NorthWest Landing ROA ensure the little ones have plenty to do with a variety of kids’ activities like bouncy houses, face painting, and more. Adults can look forward to exploring a multitude of vendors, enjoying live musical performances, and unwinding in the beer garden with a refreshing drink in hand.
Entertainment for Everyone
