The #RibfestCommunityCookout started today and the Cornwall Ribfest Facebook page has been flooded with pictures of scrumptious meals from the 20 local eateries participating in the one-of-a-kind event.
“Ribfest is different this year,” said Terry Muir, president of the Optimist Club of Cornwall and Ribfest Chairperson. “We’re so happy to be able to hold a week-long event that showcases some of the best restaurants in the area, and ends the week with 3 traditional ribbers coming down from various parts of Ontario.”
Texas Ranger, Ribs Royal and Crabby’s BBQ Shack and the 3 favourites heading down Friday and Saturday. But until then, there is plenty of BBQ to sample.
Restaurants offering ribs are Blue Anchor, Boston Pizza, Edward’s Bistro, The Glengarrian, Hops & Barley, King George, Lancaster Pizza, Schnitzels, Sheep’s Head Bistro, Shoeless Joe’s, The Spicy Pearl and Truffles. If you prefer chicken or other fares with a BBQ flair, you can visit Simply Jennifer, The Birchwood Cafe, Eight Zero Zero, Spinners Diner, Esca Gourmet Pizza and Aux Vieux Duluth.
