The sixth edition of the Atlanta Kosher BBQ Festival is moving to Sandy Springs from Dunwoody this fall, celebrating brisket, ribs, chicken and a new competition category, chili, at the City Springs downtown redevelopment.

Presented by The Hebrew Order of David International, the Atlanta Jewish Times and Balloons Over Atlanta, the festival goes from 11 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 21, on the City Green at City Springs, 1 Galambos Way. The Jewish Educational Loan Fund (JELF) is the main charitable beneficiary.

About 3,000 people are expected for the food, music, vendors, exhibits and children’s activities. A panel of local barbecue experts will judge teams entered in a Kosher BBQ Competition.

Tasting tickets are $1 apiece, sold in $20 and $50 lots.

“We’re really excited about our new City Springs location,” said Jody Pollack, executive director of the festival. “It’s a beautiful location, and we hope it will bring out people who love kosher BBQ and want to check out Sandy Springs’ new downtown.”
