Blues, Brews and BBQ Festival 2014

Area restaurants will again compete in a spirited and fun BBQ competition. They will offer samples of creative BBQ styles (not necessarily the traditional pork, beef, or ribs!) and signature coastal food. Prizes will be awarded to to the top winners in each category, including “Best Traditional BBQ” “Best Seafood BBQ” and “Most Original BBQ.” 

Come be the judge for yourself. There will be an overall 1st, 2nd and 3rd People’s Choice Award. Each winner will receive a large donation made to the non-profit of their choice. The eventful afternoon will feature “tasting stations” where guests can experience innovative food and cold beverages all while enjoying live entertainment on the HarborWalk Village Main Stage.

The Destin Event is set against the backdrop of the Destin harbor (voted “Best place to watch the sunset” by Emerald Coast magazine.) Blues, Brews, and BBQ is guaranteed to be a fun and lively cook off experience!
