What serving size for judging?
Opens up at 7:00 AM. Judging is at 1:00. We will have to bring our food to the judges at the "Cajuns Village" area. Not sure about serving size or how many judges we are feeding.Quote:

Edit. All I can find was the form.

I may be wrong about cooking from scratch. I may have read that on a different site.
The gumbo I cooked yesterday was $$$! Throwing in a few tricks for the competition.Quote:

Lima beans...that's how it's done in North Carolina.Quote:
