Big Wick's 2nd Annual Carne Guisada Cook-off

Welcome to Big Wick's 2nd Annual Carne Guisada Cookoff!

Carne Guisada - stewed beef tips in a Mexican gravy. It is a great cold weather food, best enjoyed with a fresh hot tortilla!

We’re thrilled to once again partner with our friends at Raider Red Meats for another fantastic, family-friendly event — but this year, we’re taking it up a notch! We’re moving to a larger venue at the Kitalou Gin to make the event even bigger and better. The owners have generously offered their space in support of this great cause, and 100% of the proceeds will go directly to Idalou Meals on Wheels.

Come join us for a sizzling event where talented home chefs & restuarant owners will showcase their best carne guisada recipes. This cookoff is all about celebrating delicious food, friendly competition, and great company.

Whether you're a seasoned cook or just love good food, this event is sure to tickle your taste buds. Bring your friends and family to enjoy a day filled with savory aromas and flavorful food. We will also have live music from Casey Cash Heckman & Danny Cadra, celebrity judges, vendors of various sorts, a silent auction & door prizes.

100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Idalou Meals On Wheels.

We can't wait to see you at Big Wick's 2nd Annual Carne Guisada Cookoff, in partnership with Raider Red Meats, hosted by The Kitalou Gin!
