BBQ Cook Off Info:

Have you ever been told that your barbecue is the best around? If so, here is your chance to show off your cooking skills. In September of 2007, the Downtown Development Authority (DDA) of Cave Spring, Georgia, presented the first barbecue cook-off competition called the Cave Spring Pig-Out!


On Friday night of the competition, teams will bring their fresh Boston butts, ribs, beef brisket, sauce ingredients, and cooking equipment to Rolater Park and begin preparations at their site for all-night cooking. The competition meat will be judged by a professional panel on Saturday morning. Also, on Saturday, tasting and voting for the People's Choice Award will also be given. We usually run out of tasting barbecue, so FIRST COME - FIRST SERVED!


For questions about the BBQ competition, please call Missey at 706-346-0503.

ALL teams must enter the Boston Butt category - that fee is $100.

For 2 categories (Boston Butt and 1 other) - $200
