On Saturday, October 14, and Sunday, October 15, Bucky McOinkum’s Barbecue will be cooking the most meat we’ve ever done for one event!  The Ohio Sauerkraut Festival in Waynesville, Ohio, is this coming weekend, and it’s the largest festival in the state.

The village has estimated that up to 400,000 people will be there.  That’s a lot of people, especially considering that only about 2500 people live there.  It’s probably the best festival I’ve attended, with vendors selling above average quality merchandise, and the food vendors are all locals raising money for various groups like the Athletic Boosters and Young Life.  There are foods with sauerkraut that you’d never think should have sauerkraut like ice cream and doughnuts, but don’t knock it until you try it!  The doughnuts are GREAT!
