The annual Grilling on Main event is set to return to downtown Minden June 7-8, bringing competitive barbecue, live entertainment, and family-friendly activities to the city’s historic district.
Grillers from across the region will gather to compete for awards in brisket, chicken, and pork sparerib categories, with contestants judged according to Barbecue Competitors Alliance (BCA) guidelines. Teams must cook all three meats to qualify for the Grand Champion title. A separate division will be open to local grillers.
The event also features the Little Grillers Competition, sponsored by Ace Hardware Minden, giving young chefs the opportunity to showcase their skills. Registration for both adult and youth competitions is available now at www.mainstreetminden.com/grilling-on-main.
Event organizers are currently accepting team registrations and sponsorships. Interested sponsors can contact Shawn Hatcher by email at [email protected] or by phone at (318) 272-0175.
Grilling on Main, organized by Minden Main Street, draws hundreds of visitors each year to celebrate local flavor and community spirit.
