Happy friday legends!!

I Caught up with Alex Lawson from Barbecue Base earlier in the week and had a chat about our BBQ Competition journey so far!

Bonus time!

We want to bring you even more great BBQ content so in our off weeks we're going to be bringing you a new Barbecue Base, Competition Time!

These are competition focused episodes, with some of the worlds best competition cooks in both NZBA, ABA, KCBS, CBA etc as well as SCA. They'll drop every two weeks in your usual Barbecue Base feed.

For our first one we grabbed some time with the legend Scott Matthews from Carbon Addiction who competes not only in NZBA but SCA and both he and partner in crime Nakita have thei Golden Tickets this season.

Get this in your ears everyone!

Its been a whole week since we loaded up the family and the trailer and headed up to Smoke on the Coast at the beautiful Whangateau Holiday Park

As you all know, steak has been my passion ever since miles’ first day out of hospital after being born where I took 2nd place in my first ever solo SCA. A special mention to Derrick Paull, he has been there for me since that day, and has believed in me and pushed me to keep going ever since. Mate to earn 1st place at your competition, where we started as Ques and Clues 5 years ago was an epic achievement and one ill cherish forever, and I think the hug said it all! Ill never forget our little midnight steak cook on the Saturday night, what a perfect way to thank you for everything that you have done and founding Smoke On The Coast! You leave it in safe hands, and we will be there to help continue the legacy for you!

Right-o! Saturday results!

Huge thanks to Ribs NZ, and Waitoa free range chicken for the premium supplied products.

NZBA
Overall, 5th out of 36 teams! ☺️

Chicken, finally making noise in the top spots, tied 3 ways for 11th (290/300)

Ribs, ran the exact same profile as the day before and got 2nd (297/300) 🥈

Pork, every day working on this one! 3-way dead tie for 4th (298/300)

Brisket, ok this gutted me, and I’m still kicking myself, oh how much different things could have been! I burnt it, I’ll be honest. 22nd (277/300) 🤦

All and all we are super proud of our achievements over the weekend. It was a mammoth task, but we did it! See you at the next one! Roll on Jack N Smoke

Massive thankyou to our sponsors, without you guys we couldn't do what we do!
