The Game: Get ready for the food to start flying as your Teflon Chef teams face off against each other in a frenetic culinary battle of champions.
The group chooses beforehand which Teflon Chef battleground to compete in – Italian, French, Mexican, Organic, seafood, beef, poultry or vegetarian. During the cook-off, chefs race to complete a definitive multi-course meal.
Test your cooking, negotiation, bartering, and buying skills by best utilizing the puny budget allotted you. Buy key ingredients or hire our consultant Teflon Chef (who won’t cook for you, but will be happy to help with your team process and get you going in the right direction). The competition is fierce, and speed is critical.
To add to the drama, the Mystery Ingredient Du Jour must be prominently used in all of the dishes. This magic ingredient could be anything from king crab, ketchup, or lemon grass to lettuce or lobster. As you might imagine, the results can be a little crazy – around here, foie gras ice cream comes with the territory.
A distinguished group of discerning and hilariously outspoken judges determine who reigns victorious. But regardless of the outcome, you’re guaranteed one thing – nobody will go away hungry!
Training Module or De-Brief: An optional debrief can be led by a trained facilitator around recognizing team strengths.
Program Length: Two to three hours.
Space Requirements: Teflon Chef can be done in virtually any venue indoors or out.
