Farm News: Eight Make "Taste" FinalscommentsPosted: 01.20.2010 Eight chefs from throughout the state of Wisconsin have been selected to compete in the 2010 Wisconsin's Taste of Elegance contest, which will be held at the Kalahari Resort and Convention Center in Wisconsin Dells on January 28. The Taste of Elegance features top chefs who will prepare an original pork recipe that has not been previously featured on their menu. The reception featuring these eight chefs will begin at 6:15 p.m. The Taste of Elegance was created to encourage pork menuing in a creative and non-traditional manner. The chef participants are competing for the title of Chef Par Excellence and $750. The Superior Chef will receive $500 and $250 will be awarded to the Premium Chef. In addition, those in attendance at the reception will select their favorite entrée, and a $250 People’s Choice Award will be presented. Also, the Chef Par Excellence will have the opportunity to represent Wisconsin at the National Taste of Elegance. This contest is sponsored by the National Pork Board, and offers a grand prize of $5000. Judging is based on taste, appearance and originality.
The eight chefs who will be competing in this elegant contest are:
· Chef Joud Achkar, Cherokee Country Club, Madison
· Chef Corey Arndt, Big Tomatoes, Green Bay

The Taste of Elegance not only provides an elegant occasion to highlight the increasing popularity of pork on America's menus, but also helps to strengthen chefs' preference for pork as a flavorful and versatile meat. Since its inception, the national program has evolved into over twenty regional competitions, with more than 4,000 chefs participating.
The Taste of Elegance is sponsored by the Wisconsin Pork Association; Cargill Meat Solutions; White Marble Farms; SYSCO Food Services of Baraboo; Elanco Animal Health; Pork Checkoff; and Rural Mutual Insurance Company.
