Fire in the Triad Competition Dining Series

Here’s the twist: You decide the winner! Diners will rate each dish and determine who moves to the next round and who goes home. At stake in each series is a grand prize of $2,000 and a coveted “Red Chef Jacket.” Tickets for each dinner cost $49 excluding beverage and tax. Tickets for semifinal and final rounds are $59 excluding beverage and tax. Pick your battles and join us for as many dinners as you like. Be sure to order tickets for the final dinners early as they will fill up fast. The kitchen is heating up—it’s “Grill or BE Grilled!”

The “Got To Be NC” Competition Dining Series is a brand new event sponsored by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture, Southern Foods/Pate Dawson, Crippen's Country Inn & Restaurant, Our State magazine and local partners in each region of the state. The goal of the series is to celebrate local North Carolina products and agriculture and to showcase the culinary ingenuity and talent across our state. Learn more about our sponsors.
