The Overland Chef Competition begins with a “secret ingredient” being revealed at the Metal-tech 4×4 booth on the morning of the competition. You can then spend the day getting your recipes ready and gathering your ingredients. The secret ingredient must be used in two different dishes, one sweet and one savory. 

A panel of discerning Overland Celebrity Judges will score your dishes on taste, presentation, & originality. Whoever scores the highest will have a chance to win some great prizes and take home the coveted championship chef’s apron with “Overland Chef 2021” embroidered on it (in addition to massive bragging rights and Overland Expo eternal fame, of course!).

In addition to cooking, teams may participate in the Overland Mixologist Competition before the cooking begins. You’ll create and share your signature team cocktail with the judges and the winning team will win an independent award for their efforts. 

The Metal-tech 4×4 Overland Chef Competition is limited to just seven teams of up to three people. If you’re the sort of person who has a habit of wowing your campmates with backcountry culinary skills, grease your skottles, sharpen your chef’s knife, and register today!
