UMBC 2nd Annual Cook-off!

Mon, 11 Mar 2024 10:15:38 -0400

Last year’s cooking competition was a massive success, so why not do a second season?!

Anyone can participate as long as you’re affiliated with UMBC! Students, professors, faculty, club, doesn’t matter.

Qualification: Just like last time, your submission must consist of 1 appetizer and 1 entree. While last year was exciting, to make it a little more interesting, your team must consist of 2 dishes with one of them being strictly vegetarian. In terms of the grading rubric, your recipe’s creativity, detail, ingredients, flavor and texture, and your use of a Retriever Essentials ingredient will determine if you’re picked! For further understanding, see the rubric here:
