Attention all barbecue lovers! Sponsored by Anheuser-Busch and in partnership with the Deron Cherry Foundation, the Barbecue Contest is a great way to show off your grilling skills and support a great cause. If you think your brats, wings and burgers have what it takes then be sure to enter when entries go live on May 1.
Great barbecue + good beer + supporting the Deron Cherry Foundation = a perfect day at the 2026 Missouri State Fair!
