Westland, MIThere's going to be a whole lotta flavor on Ford Road in late September. Westland will see the return of Blues, Brews and Barbecue and that means Westland's City Hall grounds will be filled with delicious smells and lip-smacking barbecue.

 

The site will be transformed into festival grounds overnight to offer patrons live local blues acts, brews and world-class barbecue. Teams from   local eateries will be serving up mouth-watering barbecue complemented by thirst-quenching microbrews, which are being presented by Westland's very own, Ashley's Beer and Grill.

 

The restaurants participating in this year's Blues, Brews and Barbecue include; Texas Roadhouse, Hickory BBQ & Grill, LongHorn Steakhouse, Westland Charhouse, Famous Dave's, Malarkey's Irish Pub, and Max & Erma's. Biggby Coffee, Dairy Dan, The Original and Kona Ice will also be there to offer some after-dinner tasty treats.

The event will run from  6pm to 10pm on Friday and 12pm to 10pm on Saturday.  This year, Friday, September 21st will also feature Bike Night, a chance for all local bikers to come out and join the fun.  There will be reserved parking for bikes, bike memorabilia and bike themed giveaways. To keep up with all of the event details, you can follow Blues, Brews and Barbecue on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/allamericanbluesbrewsbbq.
