A Full Plate Café’s Third Annual Rib Cook-Off
Sat., Sept. 12, 1 p.m., $20
The third annual A Full Plate Rib Cook-Off, held on Hancock Street behind the Piazza at Schmidts, will see both amateur and professional competitors battling it out to see who’s best in the categories of meat and vegetarian ribs, brisket and, of course, the ever-mysterious “anything goes,” details about which won’t be revealed until cooking time. Twenty dollars at the door gives you the ability to sample all of the contestants’ creations, A Full Plate’s veggie side dishes, samples of ROOT liquor and beer from Stoudt’s. Winners will receive prize packages (like barbecuing goods made out of bike parts, among other quirky stuff) as well as cash for placing first. For more info, visit afullplateannualribcookoff.com.
