THE FOOD EXPERIMENTS ROLLS INTO CHICAGO
ON JUNE 10TH, 2012 FOR THE CHICAGO SAUSAGE EXPERIMENT, THE EIGHTH STOP ON A SIXTEEN CITY TOUR

The Nation’s Leading Cook-Off Organization Is Bringing Back Celebrity Judges, Creative Food Themes And The Chance At Culinary Glory For Amateur Chefs Across The Country

BROOKLYN, NY (May 9, 2012) – Sixteen cities. Four hundred amateur chefs. Only ONE national champion. On the heels of a successful 5-city tour in 2011, The Food Experiments, the nation’s leading cook-off organization, is back with a 16-city National Tour sponsored by Brooklyn Brewery. The eighth stop on the tour is The Chicago Sausage Experiment on June 10th, 2012 at the Bottom Lounge from 1pm - 4pm.

Since its inception, The Food Experiments competitions have consistently been met with sold-out crowds. Each Experiment features roughly 25 local amateur chefs who have prepared a unique creation incorporating the food theme. In Chicago, sausage-inspired samples will be served to the 350 food enthusiasts in attendance, as well as celebrity judges. The first judge released on the esteemed judging panel is Joe Doren, executive chef at Frank’s n Dawgs. Judges joining him on the panel will be revealed one by one as the event approaches.

Everyone in attendance will have a hand in choosing which “cheftestants” will gain bragging rights, cookware, bakeware, and cash from National Sponsors: Brooklyn Brewery, Le Creuset, Anolon, Microplane and Wusthof knives. The Grand Prize Winner will bask in culinary glory city-wide and earn a shot at the National Championships on December 16. The winner from each city’s Experiment will be flown in to Brooklyn courtesy of Brooklyn Brewery to compete with the best of the best for a chance to become The Food Experiments’ 2012 National Champion. Victory has never tasted so good!
