Due to the size of the Cyril Allen Hut I have to restrict the number of teams to 8, so it will be “first come, first served” basis.
Teams should each bring the following:

peeler - Place setting equipment: table cloth, napkins, etc

District will provide:
- 1 table for both preparation and cooking
- The same ingredients per team
- A table on which there will be shared ingredients for all teams: spices, herbs, etc
- Plates, knives, forks, spoons
Rules:
- Each team will consist of up to 4 Cubs and a Leader/Young Leader or adult who are in a supervisory capacity only.
- Each team will be given the same core ingredients as well as access to shared ingredients such as salt, pepper, herbs and spices.
- Once they have their core ingredients teams will have 2 minutes to decide what they are going to cook/create as a starter, a main course and a dessert.
- Each team will have up to 1 hour in which to create a 3 course meal and lay a table for 2 settings.
- Teams will have to clear down and wash up whilst judging takes place.
