Minnesota Monthly‘s 13th annual GrillFest is just around the corner, taking place May 31 and June 1 at CHS Field. A sampling experience like no other, GrillFest showcases the best of the best when it comes to grilled foods, craft beer, and specialty cocktails.
But there will be more than just delicious bites and sips to enjoy. Ambassador, the Official Hot Dog of GrillFest, is bringing back its Der Viener Schlinger hot dog launcher to throw some friendly competition into the mix. Attendees can try launching dogs at targets for the chance to win fun Ambassador prizes and, of course, bragging rights.
