Scottish finalists for the National BBQ Awards are announced

Three top Scottish butchers have made it through the finals of the National BBQ Awards, which are held annually by the prestigious Q Guild of Butchers to celebrate the very best butchery items for barbecuing.

Nine Q Guild butchers entered the Scottish round of heats to see who would have their products represented in the six award categories (rump steak, pork sausage, speciality sausage, beef burger, speciality burger and overall barbecue product) at the final in St Albans on 13 May. 

Three butchers came out on top with Port Glasgow butchers Robert Alexander Ltd winning three categories: Rump steak, beef burger and speciality burger (with their pork, stilton and red onion burger); Davidson Specialist Butcher of Inverurie winning two: Pork sausage and speciality sausage (with their Andouille sausage) and S Collins & Son from Muirhead, Glasgow going through for their Stuffed gourmet steak in the barbecue product category.

Gold and silver awards were also given out to recognise the quality of those remaining products entered by some of the other butchers:

The three finalists will now go on to the finals to compete in their categories nationally and for the overall prize of Supreme Champion.

The Q Guild currently has over 120 members, and is a seal of excellence representing an elite group of the finest quality independent meat retailers in Britain.
