Get on down to Lake Kyle on May 16 - 18!
We've got a party planned that’ll knock the stink off a skunk here in Kyle, Texas! We’ve got ribs, ‘ritas, carnival rides, and a whole mess of things on a stick ready to dig into, plus a live-music lineup that’ll wear out your boots on the dance floor! To make it even better, entry and musical performances are FREE! By the end of the weekend I’d reckon you’ll be plumb worn out from all the hootin’ and hollerin’ at this
Finer than frog hair festival!

Competitions
RIBS
Grab your apron and mix those spices before you get down and smokey on a rack of beef ribs! We’re looking for the most finger lickin’, mama slappin’, and heaven-sent rack of ribs you can imagine.
Are you bringing the sauce or are you dry rubbing? Post oak or pecan? Do you wrap them at 2 hours or are you letting that smoke hit it the whole time? The littlest things can take a rib from awesome to scrumptious and then all the way to a taste-travaganza.
Reckon you got what it takes?
Oh yeah, I got this!FAJITAS
The perfect beef fajita excites all five senses: exquisite taste, tender feel, beautiful color, an appetizing aroma, and a symphony of sizzling as it's delivered.
It ain't as easy as it looks to check all the boxes, cowpoke. You best bring your secret marinade and plan your cook accordingly. How are you getting that meat to reveal its tender side? Briquettes, lump charcoal or wood fire? What are you finishing them with? There are more possibilities than there are cows in Dallas, but only one person bringing home the grand prize.
Ready to get in the game?
Let's get sizzlin'!'RITAS
Here in Texas, we take life with a rim of salt. And a lime. And some Triple Sec. And some tequila. Over ice. With a tiny umbrella.
Four ingredients is all you need, but we appreciate those who go above and beyond as well. What’s your best ‘Rita? Are you adding additional citrus notes, or maybe hittin’ it with a dash of spice? Blanco or Reposado? The possibilities are endless, but in the end one will leave the others in its salty dust.
It'll be stiff competition, you sure?
Easy peasy, lime squeezy!Feeling Judgmental?
Are you a picky eater or the adventurous type? Do you have a palate more sophisticated than a Bob Ross painting or do you think a seven course meal is a burger and a six pack? Are you sick of questions and ready to eat some barbeque and drink some 'ritas? If that's the case you're gonna want to be a part of our
People's Choice Awards
It's easy to be a judge, pay $5 per category you want to judge and give it to the fine people working the competition booth at the fair. There's plenty to go around, but you'll want to grab them while the food's hot and the drinks are frosty. Heads up, it's card only so save your cash for the vendors!
