BRING ON THE BARBECUE
Blake Hawkins of West Fork smokes pork butts and chicken on Saturday Oct. 8 2022 at the Frisco Inferno Barbecue Competition in downtown Rogers during Bikes, Blues and Barbecue. The annual motorcycle rally, a first for the city of Rogers, wrapped up Saturday with demo rides on several brands of motorcycles, mapped scenic routes for bikers, a car show, karaoke contest, an array of live music and the barbecue event in downtown Rogers. Rally goers could purchase tickets to sample the fare smoked to perfection by competition teams. Go to nwaonline.com/221009Daily/ to see more photos.
