Lowcountry Rib Fest brings ribs, vendors, family activities, and Southern BBQ Network-sanctioned competition to a Juneteenth celebration in Moncks Corner
Lowcountry Rib Fest is a family-friendly barbecue event held in Moncks Corner as part of a Juneteenth community celebration. Presented by Men in Black and sanctioned by the Southern BBQ Network, the event centers on ribs, food, vendors, and community fellowship.
The rib fest follows the annual Juneteenth Community Parade hosted by Moncks Corner Lodge #323, giving families a place to gather after the parade for barbecue and a relaxed afternoon celebration. Event materials describe the day around freedom, culture, community, and great food.
For barbecue fans, the main draw is the rib competition. With Southern BBQ Network sanctioning, the event brings a more formal barbecue contest feel to the celebration while still keeping the atmosphere approachable for families, neighbors, and visitors.
In addition to ribs, the event is expected to include vendors, food, music, and a family-friendly setting. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and enjoy the afternoon after the parade.
Event information also lists a charitable connection, with proceeds or support tied to the Sickle Cell Foundation and building schools in Ghana.
