The chefs are brand ambassadors through Cargill’s Sterling Silver Signature Chef program. The competitors will cook in pairs and will be challenged to create an innovative dish using two cuts of Sterling Silver premium beef of their choice. Audience members will judge the dishes and select the winning team. The competition will be held in Asheville, North Carolina, at the Omni Grove Park Inn.
