Brew-B-Que is just around the corner and we can feel the excitement building! Never been? Here are some detail's to help you plan the day!
What to know:
Join us on Saturday September 20, 2025 for Lodi's largest block party of the year! So big, we shut down Main Street to host the festivities!
This event begins at 10 am and goes until 5 pm.
The Brew-B-Que is free to attend, but People's Choice tastings and voting requires a VIP ticket. This $45.00 ticket will get you the FULL experience, but don't wait as we only sell 200 of these tickets for this event! Tickets can be purchased online, starting August 1, 2025, by clicking the button below. When they are gone, they are gone. The VIP Experience will include a custom VIP Swag Bag, tastings from all pit master competitors, tastings from pie & chili, a homebrew experience as well as exclusive voting rights for the People's Choice winners in all categories.
We invite up to 18 cookers to come to the ultimate Pit Master standoff - 2 competitions - Grand Pit Master (a closed door, professionally judged rib competition) and People's Choice (voted on by the VIP Ticket Holders). The cooking starts bright and early, right on Main Street. As the day breaks, the real fun begins...tasting, music and fun!
