Big Green Egg Cooking Competition, Sept. 30

Do you love tasting a variety of delciious bites? If you answered "yes", we've got the dream event for you! An official Big Green Egg Cooking Compeititon will be held at Seascape Resort in Miramar Beach on Saturday, Sept. 30, 2017.  

Presented by Bay Breeze Patio, Eggs on the Beach is a family-friendly event that celebrates the delicious results of cooking on the Big Green Egg while benefiting two local charities--the Fisher House of the Emerald Coast and Food for Thought.

More than 30 cook teams will be smoking, grilling and baking their favorite dishes on the Big Green Egg while tasters sample the delicious bites and vote for their favorites. 

The cooking competition will feature a variety of teams, ranging from backyard grillers to local restaurants to media teams to area non-profit organizations. Each team will be cooking a variety of dishes from meats and seafood to veggies and desserts while vying for the “People’s Choice” award and a brand new large Big Green Egg.  

New for the 2017 in partnership with Chan’s Wine World, Knob Creek will be presenting two “Smoked Cocktail” seminars. Conducted by the mixologist from Old Hickory Whiskey Bar in Pensacola, the seminars will cover tips and tricks to creating the perfect smoked cocktails using Knob Creek Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Samples will be offered during the event to tasters 21 years of age and older. 
Proceeds from the event benefit The Fisher House of the Emerald Coast, which provides a home away from home for military families during medical treatment, and Food for Thought, which aims to fight hunger and food insecurity by providing backpacks with healthy snacks for students in Walton and Okaloosa Counties.  

The cooking competition will be enhanced by kid’s activities, live music by Chris Alvarado, and drawings for a chance to win prizes, including dinners at area restaurants and more. In addition, top ranked college football games will be aired in the ENCO Electronics Sports Zone. Beverages including beer, wine, cocktails, water and sodas will be available for purchase.
