There are nine different competition categories for cooks to compete and sandwich is the category that cooks will need to use House of Q products. Each cook will go to the Kitchen Stadium and first cook their signature sandwich for the judges. The category is limited to 20 competitors and only the top five judged entries from the 20 will proceed onto the second round. During this second round, the competitors will need to use House of Q’s Slow Smoke Gold BBQ Sauce as part of their dish.

House of Q’s Slow Smoke Gold BBQ Sauce has also won many awards at BBQ sauce competitions including second place at the American Royal World Series of BBQ in Kansas City, MO in 2012 and 2013.  Competing in a sauce category that is not well know or even all that popular in Canada and further, against 400 different entries and ultimately coming second is an achievement.

BBQ Brian says “that the competitors should have a great time using the mustard based BBQ sauce in their sandwich, as a dip, spread or as a vegetable dressing or with some creativity I am sure a number of ways.”

House of Q is proud to participate in competitive food sport by having cooks be creative with their ingredients. They wish the cooks best of luck making the world’s best sandwich and for advice BBQ Brian says, “…simply make something really frickin tasty!”
