On August 25th, 2018 the air in Franklin, Tennessee will be filled with the sweet aroma of hickory smoke and simmering sauce for the 3rd annual ‘Great Americana Barbecue Festival’ at Harlinsdale Farm. From 10 AM to 4 PM visitors will enjoy some of the most “finger licking good” barbecue around, prepared by professional pit masters and Backyard BBQ Teams from across the country.

Barbecue will take center stage with vendors, grilling demonstrations and a Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS) sanctioned barbecue competition, featuring teams from around the country competing in five categories for over $10,000 in total cash and prizes. Festival goers will be able to join in on the judging by selecting the “People’s Champion”.
