Event Details
Join our friends at Shots and Giggles and the Key West Chamber of Commerce as they fire up the grills for the 6th Annual BBQ Rib Battle! Watch local BBQ masters go head-to-head in a sizzling cookoff, competing for cash prizes and bragging rights.
Ann Street transforms into a block-party-style showdown where you can sample mouthwatering ribs, enjoy delicious sides, sip drinks, groove to live music, and join the fun with a 50/50 raffle. Bring your appetite and your cheering voice—this is backyard BBQ, Key West style.
Tickets will be available cash only at the gates, and can be exchanged for rib samples, drinks, or other goodies at participating stations. Come hungry!
