A little friendly competition

Bring your best.
Let them decide.

A family recipe. A backyard boast. A whole community. There’s more than one way to settle it.

Family Rivalry

Family Rivalry: friends cooking and tasting together
The recipe. The reputation. The rematch.

Your cousin’s been claiming his kubideh is better for years. Invite him—and anyone else who thinks they can win. Let the family taste blind and settle it. At least until the rematch.

A challenge can include more than one rival.

The Burger Battle

The Burger Battle: friends cooking and tasting together
Less talking. More grilling.

Everybody knows someone who “makes the best burger.” Get a few of them behind the grill. Friends taste, score, and finally put those bragging rights to a vote.

Two rivals or several contenders. Cold beers optional.

Comfort Food. Serious Opinions.

Comfort Food. Serious Opinions.: friends cooking and tasting together
All the cooks. All the comfort.

Get the office, club, or neighborhood around one table. Everyone brings their take on the same dish. Let all guests score—or choose a panel, with a People’s Choice for the crowd.

You can run the show without entering a dish.

Good Chili. Great Cause.

Good Chili. Great Cause.: friends cooking and tasting together
A little heat. A lot of heart.

Rally the team parents, the parish, or the whole town. Invite several cooks, choose your judges, and give everyone a reason to come hungry. Add a donation link for the cause you’re backing.

Donations go through your chosen donation page, not Taste.
Two cooks or a whole crowd.

Challenge a rival. Or host and let other cooks enter.

Let the food do the talking.

Taste blind if you like. Names wait until the reveal.

You choose who decides.

Let everyone score, or pick a judging panel.

Start with the good part

Name the dish. Then decide whether you’re in the running.

How are you getting this started?
Who are you challenging?

Each rival gets their own challenge link. You can leave the names for later.

Nothing is sent. You’ll review everything first.
