Ranger Nick Takes Aim at an Australian Record With Giant Australia-Shaped Meatloaf
Queensland bush cook Ranger Nick is preparing to turn the map of Australia into something you can eat.
On Saturday, 3 October 2026, he will attempt to create the largest meatloaf in the shape of Australia, cooked over hot coals at the Australian Camp Oven Festival in Millmerran, Queensland.
It is an ambitious combination of bush cooking, Australian ingenuity and the sort of larger-than-life idea that seems perfectly at home around the campfire.
Cooking up an Australian record
The attempt will take place in front of festival patrons, who will be able to watch the meatloaf being prepared, cooked, measured and officially verified.
The entire process will be filmed and documented by media creators for submission to the Australian Book of Records.
Two members of the local community will also oversee the attempt and sign the official documentation.
Should the record attempt succeed, the finished meatloaf will not go to waste—it will be shared with patrons attending the festival.
No stranger to cooking on a grand scale
