Seven years ago, Debbie Yopp produced the 1st BREW N'QUE to create an event that celebrated our diversity and recognized our commonalities.
“As an African American woman, I wanted to bring more diversity in competition barbeque to Norco and Southern California. I wanted to expose more people to an artform that is truly “America’s Pastime.” A large part of the festival is dedicated to children and it is critical that children look up and see someone that looks like them. Everyone can not throw a ball but everyone has to eat. This is a wonderful way to develop self-worth and develop a myriad of art and technical skills,’’ notes Yopp.
In addition, there are many skilled grill masters in the making and Brew N Que allow many that would not have the opportunity to shine!” states producer Debbie Yopp.
And that she has! During the past 7 years, Yopp has incorporated International bbq smokers from Australia and Mexico as well as James Beard awardees and celebrity chefs that elude the title of GRILL MASTERS to not only compete but to teach, train, sample and allow the surrounding communities to be educated while enjoying great que, beer and more. Past guests and competitors include Myron Mixon, Big Moe Cason, Junior Urias from BBQ Pitmasters, Phillip Dell and Harry Soo from the Food Network and Syvie Curry from Netflix’s American BBQ Showdown to name a few.
Today, Horse Town Brew N’ Que boasts thousands in attendance over the past 6 years and now in its' 7th year, anticipation will be the best year.
