BBQ RibFest

Honest? It was like a chain restaurant.
Everything samee same, exactly the same set up of everything last year. The same vendors who go on a "Fest" circuit? Showing up every year.

I think the organizers set the prices for all of the vendors at Rib Fest. After being shocked at the prices this year. I took pictures of their price boards, then I was further shocked, later when I saw they where all the same.

Even the newspapers failed to notice that. A couple of examples, 3 bone sampler- $7.00.  Pulled pork sandwich- $6.00. A Turkey Leg- $7.00. The drink prices where equally "Gougee". (Please see my pictures for prices).

At the time we left RibFest, they should have been charging admission. The free entry gates where still open, not that many people where there. Last year? I think the newspapers raved about the number that showed up. This year the unemployment rate did go down.

I did catch the newspaper in a mistake though. They published a picture of a pig mounted/stuffed; it was a Russian boar (an invasive species) the reporter incorrectly called it a pig?

Pretty good BBQ, but not enough vendors and it was WAY too expensive.  Go, but be forewarned that it's not as big as they make it out to be.
