[dropcap]C[/dropcap]ourts St. Lucia hosted the first ever King of the Grill Father’s Day competition on Friday June 15, 2018 at the company’s flagship location in Marisule, Gros Islet. Three eager fathers competed for the grand prize of $1,000 cash plus a Char-Broil charcoal grill and the title ‘Courts King of the Grill’. Registration was open to the public through entry forms available at Courts branches island-wide. In the end, it was Mr. Robert Black, Mr. Irvin Pascal and Mr. Elbert Frederick who went on to participate in the competition.
The Courts King of the Grill competition provided these fathers the avenue to showcase their culinary skills while utilizing appliances like the Char-Broil charcoal grill available at Courts. This competition included the execution of grilled pork recipes submitted by each participant, accompanied by a side dish. Peter & Company Distributors and the Grace Foods brand partnered with Courts, as they did during the Cook-off competition hosted at the same venue last November. The panel of judges included a representative from Courts, Peter & Co. and a local chef. The contest also included a people’s choice component whereby spectators were able to sample the offerings and vote for their favourite dish!
Mr. Irvin Pascal emerged victorious with his dish of spiced, brown sugar-grilled pork and dasheen and tanya au gratin. Mr. Robert Black was the people’s choice winner and was awarded $500.
The management and staff at Courts express their sincere gratitude to Peter & Company Distributors and Grace Foods; the participants and spectators of the first ever Courts King of the Grill competition.
