British BBQ Society – A weekend of championship BBQ
Launched late 2008 to raise awareness of real BBQ and to offer a consistent BBQ competition circuit with a fixed set of rules, with three competitions held in Surrey, Sussex and British BBQ Society teams representing Britain at the 2 most prestigious BBQ competitions in the world, the American Royal and the Jack Daniels Invitational the society is quickly becoming accepted as a major force in BBQ.
What separates the British BBQ Society from other BBQ events is our history and our passion. There have been several competitions popping up over the years only to disappear the next. We are already working on two new competition concepts to run alongside our main events, both of which will be trialled later this year.
The points from the Pit Masters competition in July and the National Final in August are combined to discover the team that will represent Britain at the Jack Daniels Invitational, Lynchburg, Tennessee in October.
Saturday Agenda

At our National Final hosted by Rudgwick Steam and Country show we will begin proceedings with “Ready Steady Q” a mystery box competition in which competitors have 3 hours to fire up their grill and create a masterpiece for judging, with £1,000 up for grabs for the winner it has to be worth a go!!
