Palmetto Peanut Boil

Team Registration

Registration Deadline is September 15

REQUIREMENTS

Teams are required to cook a minimum of 100 pounds of peanuts of any flavor they choose.

Teams will arrive on site between 8:30 and 9:30 am to set up. All teams must be on site, fully set up and ready to serve peanuts by noon when the event opens to the public. At least half of each team’s peanuts should be pre-cooked and ready to serve/prebagged, though more may be pre-cooked if desired. On site cooking and reheating is welcome (and preferred!)

Official judging will take place at the start of the event. Teams will present a sample of their peanuts to the panel of judges, and cash prizes will be awarded for the top peanuts, as well as the most creative recipe. Judging criteria will be shared with teams before the event.

Bags of peanuts will be sold for 1 token ($6) each and should be the equivalent of one fully-filled, sandwhich-sized Ziploc bag with enough room remaining for easy closure.
