MacLeod has been seriously barbecuing meats of all sorts for more than four years, and was originally inspired by the TLC show BBQ Pitmasters. He decided this was the year to `get his feet wet'. Since winning the Beaches competition, MacLeod says they hope to enter four Ontario competitions, which are held at various locations across the province over the summer.
