Right I have finally talked myself into having a go at a competition (Toby the cheque will be on it's way shortly) and found I have a few questions for those of you who have competed before. Any help appreciated.
First question is how much charcoal will I need to bring to be on the safe side? We will be running two pro q's.
Cheers
Scott.

That's excellent.
Very nice of them, I have been using them for a while now and found them better than anything else I have tried so far. :D

Next question......
In the rules it says 'A fire extinguisher shall be near all cooking devices. '
Do we bring our own or are they supplied?

Teams should try and supply their own equipment although I always have extra dotted around the site.

Hi Toby,

I have bought two 3kg Fire extinguishers for my trailer, so I can re-issue the original fire blanket we had from last year if that's any use.
