Think you've got the best gumbo? Put it to the test!

A good gumbo is the tell tale sign of a great Louisiana chef. Everybody claims their gumbo is the best and the L.A. Gumbo Festival in Orange Beach, AL, April 11-13, 2013 might be the perfect place to win over the taste buds of the masses. With the melting pot of diverse cultures, traditions and backgrounds that exists in Louisiana, it’s hard to pick a favorite.

This festival pits Louisiana chefs against Alabama chefs in the professional division and a first, second and third place winner will be chosen from each state by an independent panel of judges. Then, the first place Alabama and Louisiana chefs will go gumbo-to-gumbo for the Grand Champion Title and a $1,000 cash prize.

If you think your version of the delicious, rich bowl of goodness, we call it yumbo, has what it takes to beat an Alabama chef’s gumbo, then this contest is for you!
