SAN ANTONIO – If you’re a true San Antonian, born and raised in the 210, then you know Saturday and Sunday mornings are designated for trips to the nearest meat market or barbacoa shops.

Whether your preference is mixed or all meat, flour or corn tortilla, rojo or salsa verde, every local knows there’s only one way to wash it down and that’s with Big Red soda.

And what better way to indulge the ultimate combo than by attending the 8th-annual Barbacoa & Big Red Festival with other San Antonians on Sunday, May 20, at R&J Music Pavilion.
