Clarification for Sunday Turn in’s
By Contest Organizer on Aug 11, 2008 in Western Cooking Tour, 5th Annual (2008) | 0 Comments
We are getting some additional questions about Sunday’s Contest.
The chili and salsa will be turned in using the same 9×9 containers as Saturday’s meats. You may use any edible item as garnish (no foil, cups, bowls, or other non-food items). The open category is being treated like an AB - anything goes. Six serving (or enough for 6) as always.

Some words of advice
1. Bring your own…..(everything, meat included!)
2. Please, please, please don’t season, marinate, inject or otherwise flavor your meats before you arrive and have them inspected (and keep them on ice <40degF at all times please!), you can trim them all you wish however. This way every contestant begins with a clean slate.
3. Ask Questions - of the Contest Organizers (Ben & Nate), Reps (Kelly, Kathleen & Jim), and to your fellow teams
4. Bring your A game
5. Rehearse, timing is the most critical thing - to get your best product in to the judges on time and repeat 30 minutes later for the next entry.
6. Forgot your __________________? ask your fellow teams, they were in your shoes once and will more than likely let you borrow it.
7. Attend the cooks meeting and potluck Fri Night

Update - see this post.
Our hosts had originally scheduled for us to use the stage at 4pm for the presentation of the awards, hence the earlier than normal start time for turn in’s and judging which we had mentioned in a previous post(for those new here, normally the first turn in, chicken is always at noon) . Now it looks as though they are pushing us back to the usual 5pm time slot.
We are considering moving the turn in time back to normal, but until we know for sure that the stage schedule is set in stone, we aren’t ready to make any changes official. We thought the cooks and judges would appreciate the heads up on the possible change.
