Port Mac kicks off this weekend. Around 80 ( oops 94! ) teams from around Australia competing in what's become Australias prime BBQ event
I think Cardshark and Hogsy are heading down there, Is anyone else from here going? Be great to see some pics as it all unfolds over the weekend. Maybe even a periscope or two?
Jan and I would love to get over there one of these days but work always seems to get in the way for us. Maybe next year we'll manage it. ( seems to be our theme atm )
Cheers, Wayne

This is by far Australia’s biggest ever barbecue competitions with 94 teamsalready booked to compete. This event is also one of, if not the biggest barbecue competitions outside of the USA.
Set in paradise, aka – Port Macquarie on the1st & 2nd April 2016 on the Town Green and grounds of the Sundowner Tourist Park, this event has gained the reputation for being the Mecca of competition barbecue in Australia.
Most teams come for the atmosphere, the chance at claiming the prestige that comes with taking a placing in any category in arguably the highest quality field of competitors and not least for the amazing atmosphere on the banks of the beautiful Hastings River.
The prize pool for this years’ Vic’s Meats Australian BBQ Wars is over $10,000!
The 6 Hand in Categories are:
Chicken, Pork, Beef, Pork Ribs, Lamb & Chef’s Choice.
