This weekend in Rocky Mount we tried something new in an effort to promote a little more dialog and good will between judges and cooks. The judges were not allowed to take food out of the judging area, in return, the teams provided goodie bags of meat for them to take home. After judging they drew a team name out of a hat and went to that team for there goodies. It was a time for cooks and judges to meet each other. The cooks were instructed not to turn it into a complaint session about there scores from the last contest, rather a time to meet them and so they could see what the cooks do for a contest and so that both could further there education. It was well recived by both cooks and judges, we met a couple that were both cooks and judges and had a chance to talk to them a little. I talked to several other judges who really liked the idea. So I hope this will continue with other contest in an effort to improve the relationship between cooks and judges.
