The Smoke on the Water Festival is more than just a BBQ cook-off – it’s an event for the entire family! Sanctioned by the Kansas City BBQ Society and the Alabama BBQ Association, this cook-off will determine the very best barbeque from among the entrants, and the winners will win cash prizes. If you love barbeque, this is the place to be! Bring your family to McFarland Park on April 27, 2024, and sample this for yourself!  

There will be live entertainment, food trucks, inflatable games for the children, Classic Car Show, and an opportunity to vote on your favorite BBQ.


The cost is $5 per person with a family maximum of $20. Food and Drink available for purchase. People’s Choice (voting for your favorite BBQ of the festival)—$5 / person. All proceeds go to benefit the Shoals Scholar Dollars!

If you want to put together a cook team to compete in the BBQ event, be sure to check out the Registration tab. This is a great way for seasoned chefs to show off their skills – and take home cash prizes!

It’s the Smoke on the Water Festival, and it will be delicious!
