Dutch Oven Cook Off Potluck

Patrols will have an opportunity to demonstrate their dutch oven cooking skills in the cook off potluck.  Saturday afternoon will be centered around patrol preparation time.  Each patrol will make a side/appetizer, main dish and desert to share at the potluck using dutch oven(s) cooking techniques.  Each dish should be enough to feed a patrol so there is enough to share.  Once a troop is registered; email Travis Zandlo, zmail45@gmail.com, the names of the dishes you’ll be bringing including Troop Number, Patrol Name, and name of dish bringing.  Patrols can use fire, coals or charcoal as fuel.  We will gather for Grace and Judging and dinner at 5:30 PM.  Scouts should bring dishes and utensils to eat with. Drinks will be provided.
