Sibley, Iowa — The smell of barbeque will be in the air Saturday at the Osceola County Fair.
If you make great barbeque you’re encouraged to enter. The competition begins at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday morning, with judging at 3 p.m. Dave Huisenga, one of the organizers tells us how it all got started.
He tells us how it works.
Huisenga tells us getting a taste is first-come-first-served, but there might be a way you can sneak a taste another way too.
Huisenga says they’ll be barbequing pork, beef, and chicken, and each cook can decide if they’re doing one, two, or all three of the meats. He says pellet grills, charcoal grills, and smokers are all allowed, but they do not allow gas grills.
For more information, call Huisenga at 712-461-1465 or Tom Dagel at 712-461-0482; or you can stop by the fair office in Sibley. People with all levels of barbeque experience are invited to come and join in on the fun Saturday at the Osceola County Fair’s barbeque contest.
