Prahran Market Sausage Fest 2017

Overview

The latest cookout at Melbourne's historic Prahran Market pays tribute to the humble snag. From 1pm on Sunday, January 29, some of the finest butchers and poulterers in town will offer up their very best wurst at the third annual Prahran Market Sausage Fest.

Yeah, we're not sure we would have called it that either. Name aside, this post-Australia Day grill promises to be a tasty affair. In an epic sausage showdown, Melbourne's best butchers will put their best snags into the Harvest Hall arena to battle it out. Members of the public will taste and vote for their favourite. Last year's winners, J & L Butchers, won for their lamb, spinach and pine nut creation — and we're guessing they'll have some stiff competition this time 'round.

As well as helping award the best sausage in Melbourne, you'll also be able to buy a half-dozen of your favourite snags for your next epic barbecue.
