What is an oinkball eating competition?

This isn’t an eating challenge, this is a competition. People get this confused quite a bit. An eating challenge is you and the food. It is usually one of those “eat this much food in less than X minutes and get it free.” This is a competition, where you are competing with other people to win the grand prize. Like any other sport this one is one of the stomach. This Oinkball Eating Competition is also going to be a delicious affair since you’ll be eating slow-smoked pork wrapped in oinkballs!

The dates:

The price of entry is nothing compared to the amount of mouthwatering oinkballs you’ll eat!

Why is this a no-pro eater event?

This is a no pro-eater event because we want to see what happens essentially. In our beef rib competition we had a finalist get disheartened and decide they didn’t want to attend the final despite it meaning they get a free delicious meal. We are looking to see how people go if they don’t have to compete with humans with bottomless stomachs! We want the oinkball eating competition to be an entry level event for this reason. It has stuck up some controversy in the professional eaters world. Some pro-eaters are upset they can’t enter and other people really are supporting the fact that it is an entry level event.
