Kenyon Noble Lumber Company is hosting an annual KCBS sanctioned BBQ cook-off, “The Montana Pitmaster Classic”. This event will be held at Bozeman Kenyon Noble Aug 28th and 29th. Our aim is to increase public interest in the art of barbecuing and to showcase to our customers that Kenyon Noble Lumber Company offers top-notch knowledge, resources, and products related to barbecuing.

We will present the contest winners with a banner and trophy that will include representation of your company.
