  6. Is it easy to enter a competition? • Barbecue is friendly! And you already know how to cook….. • Chances are at your first competition, someone nearby will discover you’re new and they’ll take you under their wing. • Strangers in the next tent? Barbecue is the best example of the saying “Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet!”

  7. So, what does it take? • A checklist of all the bits and pieces you’ll need to take with you is readily available on our website. It ain’t rocket science… (don’t forget the tongs!) • Really the only two things that you need to consider are your time and money. Time is usually from Friday suppertime to late Saturday afternoon. Costs include the meat; cooking appliances; tents and equipment…and that’s pretty much it.
