Last chance to enter Great Carvery competition

Rugby star Tommy Bowe and Unilever's Business Development Chef and head of the judging panel Mark McCarthy are calling on pubs and hotels across Ireland to showcase their carvery credentials to be crowned Ireland's top pub and hotel carvery.

The deadline for the fourth Great Carvery of the Year competition, launched by rugby ace Tommy Bowe, is fast approaching.

The all-island competition recognises the very best pub and hotel carveries that the island has to offerand the registration deadline for Great Carvery of the Year 2013 is Sunday, 26th May 2013 after which voting will be opened to the public.

The overall winning venues will each receive PR to the value of €2,500 and marketing support also valued at €2,500 for each venue. The winners’ prize also includes a specially commissioned wall plaque and commemorative chalkboard to remind customers that they are about to sit down and enjoy the best carvery in Ireland.

Once the public has chosen its regional shortlist, Unilever’s Mark McCarthy and a team of mystery shoppers will have the unenviable task of whittling these venues down to just eight regional winners. This will involve mystery visits to venues across the country before the eventual Great Carvery Public House of the Year and Great Carvery Hotel of the Year, along with the regional winners, will be unveiled at the Great Carvery of the Year Grand Final this September.

This year, the public can vote via text message or through the Great Carvery website. The regional winners and overall Great Carvery Pub and Hotel of the Year will be announced at the Grand Final in Dublin in September.
