Knuckle Deep BBQ Fest 15 Has Moved To Our Spot!

We’re honored to have the ability to keep this local favorite on the calendar for our community this year! Here’s a word from the Fest organizers:

Well… its certainly been month here in WNC, to say the least. Hurricane Helene and its aftermath has dealt a serious blow to a lot a great people. The beloved home of our festival taking a huge hit. But staying down isn’t what we do… So, we’re getting back up and we’re gonna do what we do best… make some great food and help out the way we know how.
In light of all this we’re gonna make some changes, temporarily, and push forward.
So, we’re thrilled to announce that the wonderful people at The Mule on Sweeten Creek Road in Asheville, North Carolina have taken us on and will be hosting our abbreviated version of Knuckle Deep BBQ 15!
Same date, Sunday, November 10 from Noon-5pm!
We are scaling back the judging and focusing on feeding people and raising some much needed money for relief efforts.
While we typically focus on a single charity for our efforts, we feel that we need to spread the love a bit.
We’ll be supporting Resources for Resilience, a non-profit whose mission is to share practical, science-based tools designed to build up and support everyone’s resilience.
We will also be supporting Holiday Wishes for Foster Youth… a great organization that we also supported last year.
And last, but very certainly not least, we will be supporting a number of our sponsors from years past. These great local businesses have supported us and made this event the amazing experience we all know and love. They were severely affected by the Hurricane and we’d like to thank and support them. The last several weeks they’ve been working to provide for their staff and our community, now its our turn.
