Overview
The organizers’ 2019 press pack traces Carrbridge’s championship to 1994, when Roger Reed and Duncan Hilditch developed the competition with community backing. Their account presents a not-for-profit way to attract visitors and connect village promotion with everyday cooking.
Its dated rules distinguish traditional porridge made only from oatmeal, water and salt from a separately judged speciality dish allowing wider ingredients. The wooden spurtle is described as a stirring tool with rod and flat-bladed variants; the Golden Spurtle award gives the competition its material emblem.
