The Beefiesta Tasting Booths are always held the Saturday of Fair Week immediately following the Parade in Patton Park (City Park) on Main Street. Multiple businesses grill up their favorite cut of meat and cut it up into bite size portions for everyone to sample. The public can vote for their favorite by placing money into a bucket. It's $0.01 per vote. After the votes are tallied, the winner receives the Beefiesta Traveling Trophy to proudly display in their office for a year. The money collected is donated to a local non-profit organization. Secret judges are also recruited each year to vote on their favorite and those winners receive a small trophy as well.
