Answers to FAQ's
Do all participants win a prize: All participants who visit the required number of stores will be entered into a drawing to win. Not everyone who participates will receive a prize.
Do I have to buy something to qualify: No purchase is required.
Is the Race for FREE BBQ for a Year contest only happening on May 16: The contest is ONLY the day of May 16, 2026, 10AM-8PM.
What if completed passport is not posted on INSTAGRAM (story or feed post) AND @BarBCutie tagged in the post by the deadline of May 16, 2026, at midnight? Can I still qualify to win? No. Winners will ONLY be drawn from participants that complete the contest and submit their completed passport by posting a picture of it on INSTAGRAM (story or feed post) AND tagging @BarBCutie in the post.
Some Bar-B-Cutie SmokeHouse locations are open earlier than 10AM and close later than 8PM. Can I get my passport stamped outside of the hours stated in the official rules: Although we cannot guarantee that a store is open outside of the hours stated in the official rules, you can visit any of the Bar-B-Cutie SmokeHouse middle TN locations during operating hours on May 16, 2026, and request a passport stamp.
Why are TX & GA stores not participating: Because this is a one day contest, it would not be possible for someone to safely visit ALL TN, TX & GA locations. Bar-B-Cutie SmokeHouse originated in Nashville in 1950, so we are hosting the contest in Nashville.
Can kids receive prizes: Participants must be at least 18 years old to receive prizes. You’re welcome to bring your kids along for the ride, and most locations will offer a Race to FREE BBQ for a Year coloring page that they can get stamps on at each store, but they do not qualify for the Race to FREE BBQ for a Year prizes.
