COULTERVILLE 4TH OF JULY DEEP PIT BBQ
This is the 40th Coulterville Fire Brigade Deep Pit BBQ in Coulterville Park. You may wonder how 'Deep Pit BBQ' works. The firefighters prepare the beef the night before, seasoning it and wrapping the meat in foil and burlap bags. It is then lowered into the fire pit, covered with hot coals and left to roast for the night. The morning of the BBQ it is unearthed and there it is, ready for you to eat. Meals include Beans, salad and bread.
If you have to leave town, meals to go are available, but we hope you'll stick around for the day of fun and socializing. Entertainment will include a raffle, watermelon-eating contest, water slide and other games and prizes for kids and adults.
Times: Noon to 6PM
Coulterville Park, Hwy 49 & 132
