Beer BBQ Bacon Showdown Coming To Morris County

MORRISTOWN, NJ — A Beer BBQ Bacon Showdown festival is coming to Morristown and, like the name says, will feature plenty of beer, barbecue and bacon. All the indulgence will be for a good cause: the festival will benefit local first aid squad.

The fest will feature craft beer from 30 different New Jersey breweries. Each will have four styles, including one rare beer or a beer brewed specifically for the event (find a full list of breweries here). For food there will be gourmet food trucks and chefs, and a competition for chefs to show off their best creations.

Proceeds will benefit the Chester First Aid Squad, who provide aid to Chester Borough and Township, as well as surrounding towns.

The event takes place on May 19 at 1 p.m. Lewis Morris Park in Morristown. Tickets start at $60 for a non-drinker, and go up to $100 for VIP admission purchased closer to the event. For more information and to buy tickets, click here.
