The sixth annual Crescent City Blues & BBQ Festival is this weekend, Friday – Sunday, October 14th – 16th. Last year packed plenty of great food, and this year looks no different. (This writer ate way too much barbecue last year!) BBQ sandwiches, ribs, oysters and everything else that can possibly be thrown over an open flame will be on sale at the vendor tents.
Make sure you make it down this weekend for the festival, and be sure to try the food. You’ll be very glad you did!
