Sausage Fest Results

Friday 22nd of January saw the successful completion of our second ever Sausage Competition.

Nine Butchers and Poulterers battled it out to see who would be crowned the ultimate Sausage King/Queen, just in time for Australia Day.

Over 300 people tasted the sausages and over 200 votes were tallied.

And the winners of the 2016 Sausage Competition (AKA Sausage Fest) are…..

First place:

J & L Butchers:  Lamb Spinach and pinenut sausage

Second place:

John Cester’s Poultry and Game: Thai basil and chilli chicken

Third place:

Kevin’s Poultry: Chicken, herb and garlic!
