JYE and Kristy Arnold are off to the national finals in Adelaide after snagging Victorian titles for their sausages and bacon at the weekend.
The Boort butchers had qualified for the Australian Meat Industry Council’s Sausage King state finals after earlier this year, winning four prizes in the expanded northern regional competition.
And with son Brodie and daughter Akaisha attending their first award dinner, Jye and Kristy were in Melbourne on Saturday night to hear their shortcut bacon and Italian pork sausage named best in the state.
Third places were also awarded for Arnold Family Butcher’s English pork sausage and cheese kransky.
“We aim to be consistent and we were up against some pretty good competition,” said Kristy.
“One butcher in Melbourne has its own chef on staff ... but we’ve got Jye who comes up with these award-winning recipes that are popular with our customers and again with judges.”
Jye has been a butcher for more than 20 years and regularly picks up industry awards
“We were up against regional winners from across the state so the results were pretty good and now we’re off to the national finals in February,” Kristy said.
