About this Event
Bear & Burton's Key West Invitational
Born from the need to put some good into the world - Bear & Burton’s Annual Key West Invitational is quickly gaining traction as THE must-attend BBQ event of the year.
Held at Ocean’s Edge in Key West, the first ever BBKWI was a celebration of The Florida Keys and world class BBQ benefitting the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation in Tampa, FL.
True to form, teams have competed in a grueling 3-day, 3-leg tournament consisting of fishing, a catch 'n cook-off on the sandbar, and a mini-BBQ competition to raise donations ever since.
After raising over $100,000 at our 2024 event for the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation - we are ready to do it all over again…but bigger…bolder…and better.
Join us at Ocean’s Edge Resort in sunny Key West, Florida on March 8th to get in on the BBQ competition all the other BBQ competitions are buzzing about.
