Taste the future of Houston BarbecueThe Houston Barbecue Festival and Saint Arnold Brewing Company announce the 7th annual Houston BBQ Throwdown! featuring 14 of Houston's best barbecue restaurants competing to create the next great barbecue dish that represents Houston-style barbecue.
Each ticket includes samples from each of the barbecue competition entries as well as Saint Arnold beer.
**To ensure the best possible experience for all guests, only a limited number of tickets will be made available for sale. Tickets sold out well in advance of the previous event - we encourage you to purchase tickets as soon as possible to ensure availability.**
**All tickets sold in advance online. No ticket sales at the door.**
Participating barbecue joints include (subject to change): Bar-A-BBQ, Brett's BBQ Shop, Chuckwagon BBQ & Burgers, Daddy Duncan's BBQ (People's Choice winner from 2022), Feges BBQ, Fire Craft BBQ, J-Bar-M Barbecue, La Cruda Brand BBQ, Mimsy's Craft Barbecue, Reveille BBQ, Rosemeyer Bar-B-Q, Tejas Chocolate + BBQ, and The Pit Room (Judge's Choice winner from 2022).
Much like Kansas City-style barbecue is associated with “burnt ends” and Memphis-style is known for pork ribs, Houston-style barbecue will become known for dishes that incorporate the many diverse culinary influences of this “creole” city.
A blind judging process featuring barbecue experts from around Texas will pick a single winner from the entries. Current judges are Bao Ong, restaurant columnist for the Houston Chronicle, co-owner/pitmaster Will Buckman of CorkScrew BBQ in Spring, and barbecue photographer Robert J. Lerma. Additional judges will be named at a later date. There will also be a “People’s Choice” award in which guests can vote for their favorite dish.
**A very limited number of guest tickets will be sold.** $75 general admission includes Saint Arnold beer and samples of each barbecue joint’s competition dish.
Thank you for supporting Houston barbecue!
