Excitement is Heating Up for Following its tremendous first-year success in 2010, the Skewered Apple BBQ Championship will be returning to downtown Yakima on the weekend of September 10-11, 2011, with Tree Top as the title sponsor. Proceeds from this national-championship event will benefit the Yakima Valley Museum. Competitive BBQ chefs across the nation use apple juice in a variety of ways—to reconstitute rubs, as well as to marinate, flavor, and moisten their meats. So Tree Top, a major manufacturer of apple juice, is a perfect match for this all-American cooking and entertainment event. With suggestions from 2010 attendees, and last year’s experience overall, this year’s event promises to be bigger and better, with more food, more vendors, more entertainment, and more fun for the whole family. The Skewered Apple BBQ Championship offers the largest winnings in the West. A total of $35,000 in prize money will be awarded, with $10,000 going to the grand champion. In addition, the winning team will receive an invitation to participate in the Jack Daniels World Championship, one of the most prestigious barbecue championships. The Skewered Apple BBQ Championship is open to the public. It will take place outdoors, along Yakima’s historic Front Street, and merchants will be open to offer unique shopping and dining experiences. In addition to the excitement of watching the competitors as they prepare their entries for judging, attendees can also enjoy cooking demonstrations, mouth-watering food from various vendors, and a beer and wine garden featuring some of Washington’s finest beverages. Live entertainment on the Main Stage will be provided by Star Anna and the Laughing Dogs, The Dave Rawlinson Band, and Northern Departure. Other performers are scheduled for the Depot Stage. Teams will be competing on both days, and after their submission of each competitive entry, they will offer attendees samples of their BBQ creations. Admission to the event is $15.00 for two days, and $10.00 for one day. Children 12 and under are free. Hours are 11:00A.M.-10:00P.M. on Saturday, September 10, and 10:00A.M.-6:00P.M. on Sunday, September 11. For more information, visit our website at skeweredapple.com.
