The BBQ Report

The Food Network has been airing the George Foreman College Grill-Off this weekend. It’s a grilling contest that combines several items you don’t normally associate with one another: college students, gourmet cooking, and George Foreman grills.

In the contest, students competed in teams of three for $6,000 in scholarships and a batch of Foreman grills for their school. The big man himself was on hand of course, sneaking bites of everyones entries. I mean, who’s going to refuse him right?

The winning school was the University of Missouri which fielded a team of Hotel and restaurant majors. Nick Ziegler of Blue Springs, Mo., Thom Barr of Clarkson Valley, Mo., and Dan Meyers, of Wichita, Kan., one the competition with their grilled quail wrapped in prosciutto with lemon butter sauce along with potato salad.
