- The world number one gets to chose the menu for 2016 Masters Champions dinner.
- Each year we see some interesting inclusions on the menu.
Jordan Spieth is going for a Texan BBQ menu for this year’s Champion’s dinner.
Asked about the type of BBQ – a pressing question for any serious Texan – Jordan was diplomatic:
“I didn’t select Salt Lick. I don’t know where that was spread from,” Spieth said Tuesday. “Augusta National always makes the meals. So they asked,’ What do you want to have for your meal?’ and I said I’d love to do some Texas barbecue. So they kind of go out and search for a way to make it based on popular places. I’m not sure what it’s exactly going to be. It’s going to be Texas barbecue. I’m pretty excited for it.”
The meal is held on the Tuesday of Augusta week and we’ve seen some very left field selections over the years, here are some classics…
Tiger woods went for cheeseburgers in 1998 (A bit like hooters without the girls).
Bernhard Langer and the typically German Wiener Schnitzel in 1986.
Sandy Lyle’s choice of Haggis in 1989 – You had me at sheep’s liver, lungs and heart.
Mike weir decided on Elk and wild Boar in 2004.
Angel Cabrera went for meat with a side of meat at his Argentinian BBQ in 2010
