A community wide event, that started as a way to celebrate the end of harvest by the forefathers of the community.  Every year after the completion of harvest the community would celebrate by barbequing ribs over hand dug pits below the bluff along the banks of the Vermillion river.  The feast was cooked using corn cobs.  The entire Vermillion community was welcome.
