Join Carolina Children's Home for our 21st Annual BBQ Cook-off Festival at the SC State Fairgrounds. Presented by Big Pig sponsor AdDrive, this two-day fundraiser pits cookers from all over the state of South Carolina against each other to see who can create the best tasting BBQ. All the proceeds from the event benefit Carolina Children's Home and the many children we serve. Originally founded as an orphanage, the Home is one of the state's largest treatment centers for abused or abandoned young people.

For $8 a ticket or 2 for $15, enjoy music and taste-test samples of numerous Southern specialties prepared by the 40+ cooking teams from across the region.
