IRON CHEF COMPETETION

So here's how it goes:
1.  You must be in at least a buddy team.
2.  Preparation is the key.  You will have to present your "preparation" before you cook.  So make it efficient.  Practice leave no trace.  Show that you are ready to cook your meal without a lot of garbage and hassle and no left overs or waste.
3.  The meal.  NO RAMEN!  Creativity and balance will get you more points.  It does not have to be a one pot meal, but remember, it needs to be a Backpacking meal.
4.  Presentation of the meal.  It needs to look good.  Again, creativity will get you far.
5.  Taste.  Goes without saying.  You will eat it.
6.  Clean up.  You will be judged on how well you clean up your gear afterwards.  A hint:  Cleaning as you go will get you points.  You will show your clean gear to the judges before it goes back in your pack.
Accept the Challenge and become Troop 664's Backpacking IRON CHEF!
Great prizes to the winners too!
You will have a limited amount of time at Next Monday's meeting for coaching with the Scoutmaster and his Assistants.  Take advantage of it!
Have a Great Scouting Day!
