This past Friday and Saturday, Paris Avenue in Port Royal was ground zero for plenty of good eating.  Friends of Caroline Hospice held their Bands Brews &amp; BBQ two day fundraising event.
The crowds at the event were met with less-than-favorable weather on Friday, but yesterday it was crisp and clear for the main South Carolina BBQ Association-sanctioned cook-off.    Here are some photos of the fun, and a few of the winners too.
