Troop 35 joined Troop 34 for a Cast Iron Cookoff Competition at Camp Golden Pond this weekend.
Competition #1 was a "Chopped" breakfast. The Patrols were given a mystery basket that included dragonfruit, scrapple, cheese, strawberry milk, croissants, eggs, and spinach. They had to incorporate all the ingredients to see who had the best dish. Troop 35 made a dragon fruit smoothie with strawberries and bananas. They also made a croissant breakfast sandwich.
Competition #2 was any dessert made in cast iron. The Ice Dragons made a unicorn cake and took first place.
Competition # 3 was a dinner, and they had to incorporate chicken. We took 4th place for dinner making chicken stroganoff.
Competition #4 was how clean the Scouts got their cast iron cookware. We tied for 2nd place.
The competition was extremely close between the Patrols across all categories. The Ice Dragons came in 2nd place for the final. It was an amazing weekend for fun, practicing skills, and learning other skills.
