The 31st Annual Taylor International Barbeque cookoff will be held August 15th and 16th, 2008 at Murphy Park in Taylor , TX .  In addition to the cookoff we also  have an arts and crafts show, a carnival. Gates open Saturday with judging of the meats and showmanship at 12:00 p.m. , and results approximately at 5:00 p.m. This event always proves to be an enjoyable home-town type festival where people watch the antics of the teams just being themselves (just take a look at the photos on this page). 

Tentatively, admission is $5.00.  All proceeds from the cookoff go to local charities, so come out, bring your appetite for some of the best barbeque, relax, and enjoy yourself. 

For those interested in cooking, here is the application and invitation letter as well as the rules. For further information call Shawn Jonas at (512) 803-5855.
