Yummy Snake Valley Days BBQ

The place to be for the young'uns Saturday was around this steaming cauldron of...root beer! The dry ice makes it seem so Halloween-like. The homemade root beer is always a big attraction of the annual Snake Valley Days barbeque, held on the Saturday of Labor Day weekend.

Tri-tip roasts were barbequed on the grill out back over charcoal, and this year the guys seasoned and smoked some of the roasts, along with the traditional barbeque flavor. They were all delicious!

Janille put up signs.

Meg sliced up watermelon.

The kids continued enjoying being out on the front porch, although they might be getting a little tired of stirring!

Inside, the potatoes were taken out of the oven, tomatoes sliced, beans mixed and cooked, and much more.

When all was ready, the big bell rang and the crowd started through the chow line. There was a good turnout, and everyone was treated to a delicious meal.

I didn't get many photos, but you can see some of the people who attended in these photos.

Fortunately there was some leftover meat to buy so anyone who wanted to enjoy the savory taste longer could.

Thanks to everyone who came and supported this fundraiser for the Snake Valley Volunteer Fire Department!
