Oinktoberfest 2012

Sept 21 - 23, Clarence, NY
Oh Canada

It is only fitting that this year we are honoring our neighbors to the North by declaring 2012 to be an Oh Canada theme. We have always received great support going back to our 1st year. And for the past two years Canadian teams have taken the KCBS Grand Championship trophy home. Last year it was Q'n Canucks from nearby Guelph, Ontario and 2010 was Can't Stop Grillin' from Puslinch, Ontario.

The longest continuously running BBQ competition in the state has grown & prospered to become one of WNY's premiere events.

Last year 57 teams competed in the KCBS Competition on Saturday and 32 in the Sunday contests. They came from across the Northeast, Canada, and as far away as Florida. Move in on Friday went fine with the weather cooperating, but that night the deluge arrived. Multiple drenching downpours slowed things down. Saturday and Sunday weather made up for it by being sunny and dry for a change.

The competitors were enthusiastic and determined. The public came hungry and thirsty and left happy. All were entertained with music, great BBQ, beer and friendliness.

Check out the pictures from 2011: Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
