National Meat Day
We are a community of grilling ENTHUSIASTS on a mission to help underprivileged children receive better schooling, support and experiences.
National Meat Day is not any ordinary BBQ competition. With live music, amazing vendors and countless dedicated cooking Teams that compete in our 4 categories:
surf, turf, pork, exotic
What separates us from the crowd is the exotic category of the competition, from frog legs to kangaroo anything is on the table. Believe me we have seen it all. We think of ourselves as more of a culinary competition rather than a traditional BBQ contest.
