PERRYVILLE — Richardet Floor Covering is hosting its annual Gettin’ Sauced BBQ Competition Saturday, April 23rd to raise money for veterans.
“We love being able to bring our surrounding communities together to raise money for and honor our veterans. It’s the least we could do.” says Steph Richardet, committee member.
The Gettin’ Sauced BBQ Competition runs from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. at Richardet Floor Covering, 1469 PCR 806 in Perryville, Missouri.
There is a $10 entry fee per person that includes a catered BBQ meal along with access to the Competition Garden to taste test some of the best Butts, Chicken & Ribs.
Each team is not only competing for the Brass Pig to mark first place but also [and arguably more important] trying to win People’s Choice, a coveted spot for the team who raises the most money throughout the competition by having the best samples.

Tastings
The Gettin’ Sauced BBQ Competition is unlike other events of its kind. You get unlimited tastings from each team, but there is a catch. Each team is not only trying to win the Brass Pig, they are working hard to win the People’s Choice. This is awarded to the team that raises the most money at their team tent during the Competition. Each time you taste test, throw some greens into their bucket to show some love!
Live Music
Generation: Featuring Randy Preston, Dani Bishop + Band.
Ian Ferguson: Perryville Native + son of one of our Veterans!
