Good morning teams past, present and future,
IBQN are currently sanctioning two PitMasters competitions in 2013, this will increase during the year but thought it prudent to send out information on these two now to avoid disappointment. British Jack Daniels place will be decided over any two rounds until 30th July 2013 where the champion will be announced. For example, compete in both of these events and mess up in one, you will get the opportunity to improve your score at another IBQN event.
4th & 5th May
Location, Minley Nursery, Spoil Lane, Tongham, Surrey, GU10 1BP
Standard PitMAsters event. For those that haven’t attended before this is an ideal event to break your cherry. It is closed to all bar the teams, their family and friends and members of the forum. This is a social weekend which allows you to ask questions of other experienced teams and give those that have practised over the winter the opportunity to test their new rubs and sauces. As always Judges will give out tasting notes to teams after the event. Many teams turn up on the Friday and some stay Sunday night making the most of the bank holiday weekend.
Team entry £50
Meat Box available at cost £100
