BBQ update!

🌱I'm crazy about plants…. What's the connection to Peru Old Man River Days 2nd annual BBQ showdown? …. Plants flex in the breeze…. and so do we!

💨Unexpected twists have forced us to pivot and specifically…. change venues!

👩‍🍳Pitmasters will STILL be firing up the grill!

🎶 There will STILL be live music!

🍺There will STILL be a beer garden!!!

🧭 We're just setting up shop in front of KJ Whitehorse Bar & Grill instead of 5th and Olive!

‼️Can't wait to see you at 605 5th St Saturday! Beer garden kicks off at 10, tasting and voting starts at 3:30!
