On July 28, 3 local area chefs battled it out on a grassy hill-top using only one local (and secret) ingredient. The 3rd annual Camp Cooking Challenge was sponsored by REI and the Massachusetts Department of Agriculture, hosted by Dane Tullock, Outreach Specialist, REI Boston and videographed by Jeremy from Studio603films.
Using REI's camping gear and fresh produce from The Food Project, the chefs were challenged to serve two dishes to the judges using red fish as their master ingredient. The judges were DAR commissioner Greg Watson, Editor of Northeast Flavor Magazine Jean Kerr, Founder and President of Chop-Chop Magazine Sally Sampson, and Director of Food Initiatives Edith Murnane.
The winners were chefs Chris Douglass and Nuno Alves from Tavalo for their seafood risotto (I tried it, it was delicious).
Coming in second was Chef Jay Murray from Grill 23 with Chef Patricia Yeo (from TV's Top Chef Masters fame and Moksa) coming in third.
Here, some highlights (my interview by Dane made it to my Instagram feed).
