Red, White, & Bar-B-Que: Barbeque Festival and Competition
For many years Mark Link of Uncle Bub's Award Winning BBQ was competing in barbeque competitions all over the country. He was looking for a way to have a barbeque competition in Westmont, when at the same time the Westmont Lions Club was looking to replace the long running Westmont Summerfest. So back in 2006 the Red, White, & Bar-B-Que took off. For more information about this event click HERE
