The first One-Pot Showdown at Saint Arnold Brewing Company was held 12 years ago in a parking lot outside the brewery, and it didn’t attract much of a crowd. A few folks showed up to present their homemade chilis for judging, but that was the extent of the event. Fast-forward to Sunday, January 27th of this year, and more than 80 cooking teams are expected to compete.
Needless to say, this beer-centric cooking competition has exploded in popularity over the past decade or so. Whether you opt to cook or just participate as a spectator, you’ll have a fun afternoon in store at the One-Pot Showdown. Competitors are tasked with creating a dish using one Saint Arnold beer and preparing everything in a single pot. Then a panel of judges picks their favorites, and guests taste-test as many as they can handle. Tickets are $40, and the cook-off runs from 1 to 4 p.m.
