Coastal Tailgate Cook-Off Challenge

Calling all foodies, sports fans and culinary masters: The Coastal Alabama Business Chamber is excited to announce the return of its Coastal Tailgate Cook-Off Challenge at The Wharf in Orange Beach, Alabama.

This is not your ordinary cook-off. It's a high-energy, game-day atmosphere where attendees can sample a variety of tailgate-style foods featuring bacon in a starring role from some of the best culinary teams/individuals around. Attendees can also expect live music, games and, of course, some good eats. So come hungry and come excited. This is an event you won't want to miss.

And for competitors, the stakes are high! Teams/individuals will be competing for a golden ticket to the World Food Championships in Indianapolis, IN, to compete in the BACON category! PLUS, attendees will be voting on a People's Choice Award. The winning team will receive a trophy and prize package.

We'll also be giving away an award to the best-dressed fan, so gear up to support your favorite team!
