JOIN US FOR THE
SECOND ANNUAL
BACON & BARRELS
FEBRUARY 2023
AT THE JACKSON COUNTY EXPO
We are saddened to let you know we need to cancel the 2022 Bacon and Barrels event.
The ever-evolving pandemic has challenged our event in several ways. While the event is small and manageable in terms of patrons, the servers and the bacon teams are not available at this time. The event is scheduled on a major weekend; Valentine's AND the Super Bowl. Each of the teams we talked with either had other engagements that weekend or could not spare a teammate to cook & serve due to staffing shortages.
Born from the “Bacon and Bourbon festivals” around the nation… the Jackson County Expo and Ubhill One Concessions have created Bacon and Barrels for Southern Oregon! This event offers participants' extensive bacon sampling, distilled spirit samples, whiskey lectures, bacon-inspired appetizer samples, live entertainment, and even a full bacon bloody Mary bar!

Each of the sessions will have it's own unique "flavor" so choose your Session wisely!
Friday Evening:
Friday Evening: will feature a tournament-style competition where bartenders from around the valley bring their skills to create the most extraordinary drinks possible. A panel of judges will ultimately select the best drink
Saturday Mid-day:
The fun continues with bacon and drink samples along with a full bacon-themed bloody Mary bar. With live music, you are assured of a great time.
Saturday Evening:
Date Night for Bacon and Barrels, “For the Love of Bacon” bring that special someone and enjoy the evening.
