Win the chance to work alongside a professional chef—no experience required!

Please join us for our 2nd annual Carleton Sustainable Cooking Chef Competition! In a live take-off of the TV show Iron Chef, Bon Appétit at Carleton College dining services will present the following challenge: Three opposing teams will have 30 minutes to create a delicious, sustainable meal for a panel of expert judges. Each team will be composed of a Sous Chef and three student sous-chefs. If chosen, you’ll have the opportunity to work alongside a professional chef, the chance to win $100 each and potentially design your very own lunchtime meal for the Dining Hall!

No prior cooking experience necessary; just a desire to cook on a team and a willingness to do so in front of an audience.

To be eligible to participate in the contest, please fill out the online submission form and and submit it by midnight, September 18. The student submissions will be reviewed by a panel and the winning teams will be announced by September 19th. The teams will have until the competition on October 11th to meet, plan, practice and prepare to compete!

To apply, you must be available for the competition on October 11th from 3:30pm-8:00pm. Also, you must be available to meet with your team for at least 5-7 hours during the three weeks leading up to the event (when/where/how long will be determined as a team).
