Firefighter Rib Cook Off Team Registrations

by David Howser - July 15, 2021

After taking a year off due to COVID-19, we were hopeful the ever growing 6th Annual Metro Louisville Firefighters Rib Cook Off would return and was scheduled to take place on Saturday October 2, 2021. Unfortunately, due to the concerns of the Delta variant of COVID-19, this year’s scheduled event has been cancelled out of an abundance of caution. Team Registrations have been closed and those that registered have been notified!

We look forward to making a go of it again next year! Annually it had been taking place in the Fall but considerations are being made to host it in the Spring of 2022. Previous participants will be notified when plans are firmed up.
