Amateur Cooking Enthusiasts have the Opportunity to Win up to $6,000 in the National Competition
Think you’ve the best macaroni and cheese around? Tillamook Cheese announced the call for recipe submissions for its fifth annual Tillamook Macaroni and Cheese Recipe Contest. Tillamook is looking for six home cooks from around the nation to compete in the grand finale cook-off in October.
The contest dedicated to an all-time favorite comfort food continues to evolve, and this year gives foodies and home cooks alike the chance to win $5,000 in the national grand finale cook-off and $1,000 in the “People’s Choice” Awards.
Entering is a snap. Just visit http://www.macaroniandcheeseandcheese.com/contest to submit your homemade macaroni and cheese recipes. Select recipes will be tested by a professional chef and narrowed down to the top six recipes in the country.
The six chosen finalists will compete in the grand finale cook-off in Portland, Oregon on October 23, 2009. In addition, the finalists and their guests will be flown out to Portland, where they’ll cook their recipes from scratch in front of a live audience and a panel of judges consisting of national culinary experts and professional chefs.
Finalists will compete for the 2009 title of the “Big Cheese”, $5,000 cash and 25 pounds of Tillamook cheese. The first runner up will receive $2,000 cash and 20 pounds of Tillamook cheese and the second runner up will receive $1,000 cash and 15 pounds of Tillamook cheese.
Due to its popularity in last year’s contest, the People’s Choice Award returns for another year. This year, grand finale cook-off attendees will vote for a “People’s Choice” winner at the event on October 23, 2009 and the winner will be announced after the judges have finished scoring all entries.

Cheese is my favorite. Thanks for this recipe
Place bacon on slotted broiler pan. Cook bacon 10 inches from the heat and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side until crisp then adjust oven to bake setting for temperature recommended on fries packaging.
While bacon cooks, make the burgers. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Mix beef with diced dogs, chili powder, grill seasoning, Worcestershire, 1 teaspoon of hot sauce and ketchup. Form 4 large patties.
Butter both sides of the second slice of bread and spread with a little mustard or other dressing, if desired Place on top of turkey or ham slice and top with 2 thin slices of cheese.
Great cheesey prize! Can I have some?
