Scenes from the Cowboy Cook-off

On March 9, 2013, the Alabama State Beef Checkoff funded the "Cowboy Cook-off" at the SLE Rodeo and Exposition in Montgomery, AL at the Garrett Coliseum.  In it's inaugural year, 11 teams participated in this event and served up great steak and hamburger dishes to the judges panel.  During the cook-off, the Auburn  Collegiate Cattlemen and CattleWomen were on hand with 3 "BEEF Boot Camp" stations where consumers could learn about marinades, beef selection and grilling tips!  Also, the Alabama CattleWomen's Association supplied and sampled beef brisket to consumers who came to check out the Cowboy Cook-off.    Thank you to all cookteams who participated as well as volunteers who helped make this event so successful.  If you missed out this year, start getting your team and grills together for the 2014 contest.  BEEF:  It's What's For Dinner!
