This is the 2012 West End Anglers Charity Cook Off. This is FWE's 2nd year to host this event, in the past we have raised several thousand dollars for various charities and hope to do the same again this year.

There will be 3 main divisions: Brisket, Chicken & Ribs and 6 optional side pots; Friday night, Seafood Dish and Frozen Drink, Saturday, Bloody Mary, Pinto Beans, Chili and Potato Salad.

Each team is allotted a certain area and may not spill over into any other team's area. This is a fun event benefiting a great charity and we look forward to making it even bigger than last year.

There will be live music Friday evening. The actual competition is Saturday and again live music will fill the air. We look forward to having a large crowd both Friday Evening & all day Saturday at the event.
