Cooking Competitions
One of the hallmarks of NTA, Inc. is our design and execution of consumer and professional cooking competitions. We've created lots of them - both big and small! Cooking contests are an ideal way to put your food product in the hands of consumers, and to generate interest in the media.
NTA, Inc. directed five National Chicken Cooking Contests, featururing 51 contestants (one from each state and DC) at a three-day event, competing for grand prizes of up to $100,000 for the best chicken recipe. Each contest was attended by about 75 nationally prominent food writers, representing major consumer magazines, national daily newspapers, and prominent food television shows. NTA, Inc. executed all conceptual and logistical aspects, for both the media and visiting contestants.
Other cooking and recipe contests executed by NTA, Inc. include a Family Meals Cooking Contest for Better Homes & Gardens magazine, two "Cooking with Beer" consumer recipe contests, a chef chicken recipe contest and the recipe evaluation and judging segments of four Foster Farms Chicken Cooking Contests.
