To celebrate the history of barbecue in North Carolina, we have a large exhibit and 5 local barbecue restaurants will be on site providing demonstrations and extra information. Viewing the barbecue exhibit is free of charge.
In addition to the barbecue festivities, all the normal offerings at Reed Gold Mine are available. Underground tours, the museum, the Stamp Mill, and the trails are all free of charge. Panning for gold is $3 plus tax per pan and is available for children over 8 years old. Younger children can work with a parent or adult.o an opportunity to try Midwood Smokehouse, Queen City Q, The Smoke Pit, Johnny Rogers, and Carolina Barbecue Company all in one place! With a food ticket, you can sample barbecue, a side, and a desert from each of the 5 restaurants, plus you'll get a soda, bottled water, or cup of sweet tea.
All proceeds from this event go to support Reed Gold Mine State Historic Site through their nonprofit support group the Reed Expansion Committee.
