Product testing is officially complete for the upcoming Bellarine BBQ Comp 🔥

The tasting department has reviewed the results thoroughly… and we’re happy to report they are extremely satisfied with the finished product. 🤤

Now it’s time to pack the drums and head to the Bellarine to see how it stacks up against the best.

If you’re around the Geelong / Bellarine area during the comp, come down and say g’day, check out the drum smokers, and see what real low-and-slow BBQ is all about.

Wish us luck!

During our time living in Midwest America, friends graciously shared exceptional BBQ and recipes with us. One versatile recipe has remained with me. Cowboy Candy, also known as candied jalapeños for those unfamiliar, is a jar of goodness with numerous uses - a side dish for great BBQ or as a topping for cream cheese and crackers for a satisfying snack. Furthermore, if preserved, it will last for 12 months and its flavor will improve with age, provided one can resist the temptation. If you find yourself with an abundance of jalapeños, please refer to our website for the recipe.

We’re clearing a little space in the shop 👀

Not because we’re slowing down — because something new is coming to the smoker world.

2 smokers are ready to roll now for anyone who’s been waiting for the right moment.

$800 — if you pick up from Bendigo and can spare 4–5 hours (total fire ban depended), I’ll throw in a hands-on cooking class so you can nail it from the very first cook. If not freight is always a option.

Same craftsmanship. Same smoke.
Just preparing for the next chapter. 🔥
