It looks delicious. But with all of the seasonings, do you ever taste the meat?! Sometimes less is best. I would love to taste their hard earned meal. 👍
So good and tasty 😋 check me out
The hate in this comment section is insane 😂
Why does the Aussie guy speak in questions?
Talking bout over seasoning meat like they’re talking about quantum science💀
Salt, inject, butter, fat, salt, inject sheesh yh you enjoy broski 🤢
The guy trimming the money muscle and separating it before cooking it should have been DQ'ed.
That Australian brisket is so lean I bet it was dry as a bone.
One bite, everybody knows the rules.
That is an embarrassing self title
Going for some kind of record for consecutive videos of recycled content.
But honestly- this isn’t even the best BBQ competition. It’s the best single BBQ bite competition. There’s a difference.
I hope none of the food went to waste considering they only take one bite.
That stage announcer sure has a hard on for BBQ 🤦🏻😂
Grease and butter make everything good. Americans way of cooking, more fat and grease
iunno… looking at the majority of judges there… i really wouldnt trust their taste buds or their abiity to judge flavor lol
I never seen food so utterly over seasoned – soak, inject, rub, soak, bacon grease, butter up, spray, apple juice … ALL on one poor piece of meat. There is no way the original flavour of the meat is left. I like the people in the doco but it seems to me that every over anxiety, every over performance stress, results in yet another seasoning. Is seasoning BBQ the new expression of Modern angst????
Yep I'm here to say I'm Blown Away about them sprinkling MSG on the chicken right before turning it in
I wonder how much more likely you are to win if you spend $$$$ on really high quality meat
How unusual and delicious everything looks. Very good video.
Jay Z of bbq? Soo…. Barely half as good as the white boy is what your saying?
Seems like it would be luck to win this event. You’re at the mercy of like 4 judges. Throw the dice.
12:37 they used a celcius energy drink to add flavor…..uhhhhhh what???
not so interresting for me like your videos usually are
This video was like GRAH! 🍗🍖🥩
Pork can never be the best barbecue I've ever eaten.
