As I wrote in the last post we went to Hico a couple weekends ago for the steak cook-off competition. We gave it our best shot in both the steak and the appetizer but to our disappointment we struck out both times. My brother happened to look at the FB page for the cook-off and noticed that the #1 winner for the appetizer competition had gone UNCLAIMED! Seth immediately texted my Mom and I and sent us the picture of the FB page and said that he had a feeling that we had won.
After scrambling to find our ticket stubs with our claim #'s on them, my Mom called the organizers to inquire about the appetizer winner. She told them what both of our ticket #'s were and they said one of those was the winner and asked what it was that we had made! My Mom described our fantastic grilled appetizer with spicy shrimp dip and the woman said that was the winner!!! We couldn't believe it- we won first place appetizer out of about 70 entries! For winning 1st place we were sent a plaque and $300 (enough to cover our entry fee!) plus we get to be one of the teams that will get to cook steaks for the public next year!!! Way to go Steak Medics!
