Great American Seafood Cook-Off Started by the Louisiana Seafood Promotion and Marketing Board in 2004, the Cook-Off promotes domestic, sustainable seafood. Chefs cook before a live audience and present their dishes to a notable panel of four national judges who score based on presentation, creativity, composition, craftsmanship, flavor and more. Featuring entertaining hosts and renowned chefs, it’s a don’t-miss event. Each year, chefs from throughout the country are given the chance to represent their states and their home seafood in the Great American Seafood Cook-Off. 2023 Chefs 2023 Chefs 2023 Judges 2022 Chefs 2022 Judges Previous Chefs Previous Judges Select a year - Any -2018201920202021 Chef Gary Hawkins Chef Mandy Dixon Chef Zizhao Luo Chef Mark Ballen Chef Matthew Schnooberger Chef Jeffry Wierzbicki Chef Briar Handly Chef Michael Buckley Chef Michael Lee Pagination ❮ Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Current page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 … ❯ Year (field_article_year) - Any -20122013201420152016201720182019202020212022202320242025 Steve Green Jamie Adams Chef Brian West Jason DeRusha Chef Cory Bahr Johnny Ahysen Chef Jim Smith Mike Brewer Chef Monti Carlo Pagination ❮ Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Current page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 ❯ GASCO Sponsors Demand Louisiana Seafood Did You Know?
