From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Roanoke-Chowan Pork-Fest is an annual event held each May on the grounds of the Brady C. Jefcoat Museum in Murfreesboro, North Carolina.[1]

Largely a barbecue cooking contest, funds from the event benefit the maintenance and operation of the Museum. In 2010, the first place prize was awarded as a tie for the first time to Fred Woodard of Smithfield, Virginia and J.W. Condon of Newport, North Carolina.[2]

No event was held in 2020.
