In the heart of Speyside sits The Alice Littler Park in the beautiful town of Aberlour. Here the Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS) will welcome teams from across the world during the Spirit of the Speyside Whisky Festival to compete for various coveted barbecue titles. This will be the first (KCBS sanctioned) barbecue competition in Scotland!

Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS) sanctions and judges barbecue competitions across the world. It is the largest society of barbeque enthusiasts in the world.

By providing the most respected form of judging and scoring in the
world of barbecue, KCBS provides representatives for each contest and access to certified barbecue judges who have been trained in how to judge world-class barbecue, all while using a blind judging process that is fair and void of personal knowledge of teams being judged. KCBS sanctions nearly 500 events across the world, this event will be the first in Scotland.

How can you get involved?
