Great American Seafood Cook off Recipe Contest

Great American Seafood Cook off Recipe Contest
We all love to eat seafood, right? Most especially if they are cooked with really fresh sea food and authentic ingredients.

Here's your chance to win a trip to New Orleans for two inclusive of air fare and hotel accommodations for a delicious dining experience. It is a place renowned all over the world for its excellent sea food cuisine served in rows of restaurant.

It is easy, you simply visit http://www.greatamericanseafoodcookoff.com. Then select one of the five finalists recipes featured in the Great American Seafood cook off and enter your vote. This will guarantee you an entry for this recipe contest.

I voted for the Texas Gulf Shrimp by Chef Mark Holley from Texas. You can imagine the flavorful blend of spices simply by looking at the picture. The authentic and fresh ingredients enhanced the delectable taste of that giant shrimp! The colorful ingredients embellished the presentation of his dish. It is a pity that some of those ingredients are not available locally. I would have taken the opportunity to cook this dish.

This year, Chef John Currence from Mississippi won the contest. His dish, the Redfish Courtboullion with Seafood Dirty Rice was voted the best. A complete meal cooked with the most unique ingredients and the freshest local seafood available in the market. The judges may have already picked their winner for this year, but you can still vote for your favorite recipe. The online contest is open for voting until November 2008.

So head on over to the website to cast your vote!
