COMPETITION: Bacon World Championship
I love the Bacon Category!!! To me it seems to be one of the hardest categories since Bacon is a food group all itself. Bacon goes with everything? 2024 will be the 8th time at the World Food Championships and 8th time in Bacon. With my Dream Team, we have accomplished an 11th place in 2021, 6th in 2022, and an amazing 4th on 2023 in our category. 2023 was on of the best and also one of the most challenging years ever competing at WFC. After having a GI Bleed and developing nerve issues in my left arm and shoulder, I am thankful that my team and the WFC family rallied around me in support as we went through the Culinary Gauntlet having to cook 3 times. 2024 is going to be an even better year for the Team as we all meet in Indianapolis. See you soon
