| Location: |
Center for the Arts Crested Butte |
| Details: |
Come celebrate the gastronomic knowledge and edible prowess of our local chefs at the culinary game show of Crested Butte--with a new twist this year—Local Chefs compete against a renowned Chef from outside the valley!
Spicy electricity is guaranteed as these professionals slice, dice and sauté their way to the crown of the Chefs on the Edge competition. With one pre-determined bag of groceries chosen by the chefs themselves, and a bag of unknown groceries supplied by the Center for the Arts, chefs flex their cooking muscles preparing exotic dishes for the judges that tantalize the senses. Armed with only basic kitchen instruments, given a one hour time limit, and placed in the spotlight on the Center for the Arts stage, the heat is already on for a year's worth of bragging rights.
And then – the Secret Ingredient is unveiled. An unknown vegetable. An oft overlooked spice. Sparks fly from knives, creativity is brought to a boil, the crowd is off their feet and cheering. Emcees keep the audience engaged and informed of the cooking acrobatics occurring on stage. You see and hear every garlic clove being minced, every red pepper being julienned.
Each dish is reviewed by a panel of distinguished judges, looking especially at how the Secret Ingredient is utilized. Artistic expression. Taste. Texture. Flare. All are stirred into the mix to determine the 2012 Chef on the Edge Champion.
Nobody goes starving here. Come early for the cash bar and hors d’oeuvres sumptuously provided by local restaurants. But don’t expect to just be able to sit lackadaisically in your seat. This is an event for the rowdy food enthusiast, for cheering on your favorite chef. It’s a true Crested Butte event served up Crested Butte style – on a boisterous platter of enthusiasm.
