I'm there, we got pit crew tickets for Christmas so we're heading over on Saturday with the kids on the train.

Evening,

I will also be there all weekend as we are heading up with our PitCrew tickets. Be good to catch up with any of the other BBQ people.

We got there around 11:30 this morning when it was fairly quiet, tried the beer, tried some food, bought a rub to try and a few different sauces. Saw the chilli eating contest, then it got silly busy and the queue for the loos was ridiculous so we disappeared at that stage. It was a bit too tricky trying to navigate round with a double buggy!

The sauces from the chilli alchemist were really nice so I got some of that, food wise I wasn't impressed by the selection and the pulled pork from reds was a bit meh. The only place I could see with burnt ends listed was the sailor jerry's tent, so I asked for some and I got a pile of pulled pork.... I wasn't happy!

Chatted to a couple of the independent guys that were just there for fun but that was probably the highlight.
