Smoke in the Park ROCA BBQ Cookoff: Ribs
Sunday 20th July, 2025
Get ready - history is about to be made! The very first Rib Cook-Off Association competition is firing up in New Zealand, and we’re calling on the boldest, sauciest, most fall-off-the-bone obsessed cooks to throw down.
Whether your ribs are sweet and sticky, dry-rubbed to perfection, or dripping in smokey goodness - we want to taste what makes your rack the best in the land.
Bragging rights, BBQ glory, and the chance to be crowned the best rib cook in New Zealand are up for grabs. So don’t just stand there - grab your tongs, fire up the pit, and show us what you've got!
